🎙️ The Hungry Meeple — Interview with the Designers of Orloj (Perro Loko Games): Paola Pascual and Abraham Sánchez
In this episode of The Hungry Meeple, we sit down with Paloma J. Pascual and Abraham Sánchez Hermida, the creative minds behind Orloj — the most talked-about games at SPIEL Essen!
Inspired by the legendary Astronomical Clock of Prague, Orloj is a stunning blend of art, engineering, and history, where players build the clock’s intricate mechanisms — the zodiac dial, the calendar, and the walk of the apostles — to create a masterpiece that stands the test of time.
We talk about:
⏰ How the idea for Orloj was born
⚙️ The design of the astronomical dial, clock face, and apostle gears
🥂 And of course, what Orloj would be if it were a drink or a dish!
Join us as we explore how this game connects craftsmanship, time, and creativity—a perfect reflection of The Hungry Meeple’s mission: *making connections through games, food, and friendship.
