The Kodak Camera has a place in my Land Run board game, and reading this makes me want to rewrite a few sentences in the historical guide.

Had the pleasure of writing down my thoughts about historical board games for NiCHE's series Playing Inside. Check out the whole series as it rolls out in the next months!

History on the Tabletop: A Brief Guide for Evaluating Historical Board Games Historical board game Land Run: 1893 explores settler colonialism, Indigenous dispossession, and environmental degradation, balancing historical accuracy with player agency.

Today we have "History on the Tabletop: A Brief Guide for Evaluating Historical Board Games" by @jacobleetom.bsky.social

@danielbowman.bsky.social is right! I've been developing a board game which, in part, explores the ecological consequences of the American Land Runs in the late 19th century. I've made an effort to contact you about it via email after Daniel mentioned your post to me.
