$Lens and Veil | EP #18: Civolution 🎙️Welcome to the Lens and Veil podcast, join Shem, Sam and Zach as they discuss games theyve played together, specifically focusing on game design elements. In this episode they discuss Civolution by Stefan Feld. Civolution is a heavy euro-style sandbox game that uses a dice selection mechanism to trigger actions on a tech tree-like structure. The game has many strategies and paths to victory. Each time you play, you will only explore a fraction of the possibilities that the game’s system and many cards provide. 📜Chapters: 0:00:00 - Which would you prefer? 0:10:37 - Intro 0:10:55 - Overview of Civolution 0:20:10 - Discussion of Civolution 0:59:39 - Questions for audience 0:59:58 - Top 200 Draft: 1-10 ⭐About the Cast Shem Phillips is the owner of Garphill Games and has designed a fair few board games, notably Raiders of the North Sea (Kennerspiel des Jahres Nominee) and Legacy of Yu (Golden Geek, Dice Tower Award, Origins Award for Best Solo Game of 2023).
