Computer Strategy Games.

This series is about Computer Strategy Games or Video Games as defined by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game

This game is pretty old, but I found that wen I started a game recently to prepare for this episode that it was still as addictive as ever. I won't claim it is essential for everyone to run out and get it, but if you did happen to find a copy somewhere and play it, you might find you enjoy it. In this episode I give a few hints about getting started with this game.

this brings back memories

I used to play civilization a lot and it's still a very awesome game. In my very first game, things went horribly wrong and when I finally got around having chariots, my neighbour just demolished them with their tanks. I clearly had been focusing on wrong things on that time.

I'm thinking that we should get our daughter to give it a try too and experience that "one more turn" behaviour.
