Post of appreciation for Board Game Academics (@bgacademics.bsky.social & @chriscarbone.bsky.social) for putting on such a boldly curated program on historical games, the mind, and ideologies of play. I’ll be chewing on this for months!

An interesting approach to thoughtful game design that I chime with in this article (paywall for the full thing; I just paid $1 to read).
