Quotes (from this video)
  • So, these are 10 games. And of course, if we did this one in four months, it would look different because we would know more about the year.
  • So, I'm very um I'm curious about how they're resolving this mechanically because that seems like a little chaotic game. I'm not sure how that lands with me.
  • But the thing that makes it very interesting is that you're not just playing as the archaeologists, you're also playing as the tribes. So, it's like a not a time travel game, but you are doing stuff in the past that might I don't know how, but it might then affect the present.
  • So it makes it makes for them to be very unique and thematic games that I think and also it make great games not just thematic ones.
