#284: Zoo Vadis
So Very Wrong About Games - En podkast av Mike Walker & Mark Bigney - Tirsdager
On October 27th, 1962, a man named Vasili Arkhipov saved the world. Literally. Had he not stood up to his commanding officer and refused to launch a nuclear warhead during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the resulting retaliations would have obliterated all human life. Probably the marmosets and gibbons, too. We here at SVWAG think the man deserves a holiday in his honour, especially given that we all owe our lives to him. October 27th is Arkhipov Day.Games Played Last Week:01:05 -Undaunted: Stalingrad (Trevor Benjamin and David Thompson, Osprey Games, 2022)05:56 -Voidfall (Nigel Buckle & Dávid Turczi, Mindclash Games, 2023)25:58 -Louis XIV (Rudiger Dorn, alea, 2005)29:46 -Terraforming Mars: The Dice Game (Jacob Fryxelius, FryxGames, 2023)33:26 -Trailblazers (Ryan Courtney, Bitewing Games, 2023)37:08 -Argent: Mancers of the University (Trey Chambers, Level 99 Games, 2015)46:06 -Planet Unknown (Ryan Lambert & Adam Rehberg, Adam's Apple Games, 2022)48:50 -Cockroach Poker (Jacques Zeimet, Drei Magier Spiele, 2004)News (and why it doesn't matter):52:32 Haunted Lands by Ludus Magnus53:24 Check out sowronggames.com: Searchable episode notes, SVWAG profiles, the Canon, and more!54:29 Arkhipov Day: Oct. 27th.
