People should be made aware as to why I have not been posting as frequently this week. I had been engaging in playthroughs of two video games that I wanted to play for the past few years, but never managed to find the time to do so. Those are city builder games Citystates and Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic. The former is a city builder that focuses on being a political-economic simulation of political economy within a contemporary city-state. The latter, smaller in scale, is more nuanced to the point of featuring a steep learning curve on how a Soviet-era city functioned historically. I mastered Citystates but not Workers and Resources, and there are some mods to try out for those interested.
