The regular reminder -- these are some of the folk posting and talking (and some writing) about historical game studies topics. Don't forget the gamingthepast feed( #gamingthepast #gtp #historygames ) too for building community. And let me know if I've missed you

My first credit in a (non-Braziilian) videogame, and I couldn't be happier to have been a part of this.

Stop whatever it is you're doing and go play Expelled!

You won't regret it.

After some technical hiccups (including a broken laptop), I'm happy to annouce the first prototype of my new game, 'Galar', is available for download! 🧵1/5

This is an amazing game. Super recommended if you´re in the #archaeogaming and #historygames crowds.

Plus, the voice actors of Karlach and Halsin (BG3) are in it. What's not to love?

If you need evidence that the HGN blog is the place to go for quality #historygames writing, look no further than this piece.

Absolutely fantastic dive on the complexities of video game time - even in historical games that may look very simple on the outset.

Immortality last longer now, so her last stand should be more impactful.

#historygames folk. I'm looking for board game design jams with designer limits I can refer to in my chapter. These could be excellent inspiration for short classroom projects and it would help so much if you folks already know some quality ones and could direct me. Thanks as always!
