Episode 14: Rick’s Not Playing Games With You (Or Is He?)

Posted on September 11, 2020September 11, 2020 by dave

Rick steals the show with his advice on playing games invented before you were born as well as shameless self-promotion. Remember those text-based games from yesteryear? Dungeons and Dragons knockoffs? The days before electricity? Of course not. But spend a little time learning about what life was like when he was your age. And respect your elders!
