The Story Behind Blaseball, The Surreal Online Phenomenon - Refreshed
MinnMax's Ana Diaz interviews the developers of Blaseball to explain the "fantasy fantasy baseball league" and talk about its wild success this year. The Game Band's Sam Rosenthal, Joel Clark, and Stephen Bell discuss how the idea of a community-led storyline can trace its roots back to Twitch Plays Pokémon, why the game of Blaseball feels more like a tabletop game than a sports simulation, and why it's been such a great creative outlet during the pandemic.
