Episode 25 - Racing Games

Well, we came in last this month, but this episode has finally arrived - time to discuss racing games! (Although, as we mention at the end, almost all games can be defined as racing games in one way or another.) Sadly, we are still limited by lockdown audio quality, but hopefully you still find it listenable. Thanks for bearing with us!

 

In this episode:

• The world's oldest recorded trash talk. ("Observe my three!")
• If you want a groovy new copy of ancient board game, these guys can help.
• A pair of great videos about the Royal Game of Ur and how its rules were reconstructed.
• This whole Shut Up & Sit Down video is great, but I've skipped to the part about the Game of Goose.
• The cutest little dashboards from Formula-1.
• And, of course, some Top ASS Dollars! (Apologies to Altenburger Spielkarten; we are American, and also apparently about nine years old.)

As always, we appreciate your listening and would love to hear your comments on any or all of these items, and especially a review on iTunes if you have the time and inclination!
