Never did well at Cryo's (beautiful) Dune game as a kid, but would now love to give it another go.

Only now realized that the vast majority of my 63 Wireframe articles on game urbanism are nowhere to be found; at least not online. I should probably do something about this.

For now though, here are the ones people can still access: https://whynowgaming.com/?s=Citycraft

Another wonderful Bardic video, mostly focusing on my favourite D&D artwork (well, AD&D) of all time.

I think I'm in love with Dredge, and its uncanny ability to so effectively evoke a very specific atmosphere using so little.

Got myself a subscription on Medium, which can only mean that more articles on the design of video game cities will be appearing there (very) soon.

Have been replaying the Gates of Zendocon on the Lynx (well, Evercade) quite a bit lately, and am very impressed at just how well designed, innovative and varied this game is.

A brilliant if overlooked shmup, that has somehow even found its way on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2190740/Gates_of_Zendocon/

The Lost Patrol was one of the most original and most overlooked games of 1989. It remains one of those few games that, mechanically too, manage to imply the horrors of war.
