💯 I learned history as a kid by playing Avalon Hill board games. And my son has learned history by playing @gmtgames.bsky.social board games (with me). Through him, I have discovered Civ VI and the like. Great games, board and video alike, are great teachers.
What if the best way to learn about history is by playing with it?
Video games are changing the way people understand the past
