Civilization, The Roottrees are Dead, and The Gang - Ep217

Is Civilization from Avalon Hill and Gibsons Games still able to command 10 hours of your attention more than 40 years after its initial release? Can The Roottrees are Dead outdo Hypnospace Outlaw at Internet nostalgia and Return of the Obra Dinn at amateur sleuthing? Blending poker and heists, do we have a good enough hand to win The Gang? Are Ritz crisps? You have questions, and boy, do we have answers. All that, and a bag of cola, on Ep217. 00:00 - Putting on the Ritz 05:54 - Civilization 30:28 - The Roottrees are Dead 40:57 - The Gang On this episode were Dan (@ThisDanFrost), Kris (@DigitalStrider), Peter (@XeroXeroXero), and Sam (@MrSamTurner).
