There’s plenty of drivel to go around, so strap yourself in and (try to) enjoy the ride! This will likely be the final episode of the podcast unless there are any major developments or announcements concerning the city building genre. Rex and I discuss this in more detail during the show. This week we talk about the current status and future of the podcast, reception and development of Cities XL, the future of the city simulation game, holiday plans, personal happenings and movies.
