In this episode Julius and I get Suburbia back to the table. This game was first covered by Julius way back in episode 95. That was way back in January of 2016.. wow! Well, I have now finally played the game though I've had a copy sitting around for a couple of years. Find out what we think about the game and how it's held up for Julius over the years.
Before we do that though, I am going to super-quickly talk about another 18 card microgame, Scott Alme's Food Chain Island.

Julius and I spend some time taking a tour of the world of the 18 Card Microgame. This neat little sub-genre is full of all sorts of neat little games. These games are usually quick playing and often very creative.
