The Fascinating Evolution of Tabletop RPGs 🎲

I've had this video in my head for a while! A few weeks back I was watching videos that covered the history of role playing game from the 1970's to present, but I couldn't help but wonder if there were any ancient games that were similar to our modern table-top RPG’s. In this History of the RPG you will find some interesting history nuggets about ancient dice, war time strategy, and also an idea on how people might see themselves reflected in game pieces. Please subscribe for more fun history videos and discussions about museums and the like! Also, please comment if you would be interested in a video where I break down some old dice games~ Old-timey dice: Minas-Nerpel, M. (2007). A Demotic Inscribed Icosahedron from Dakhleh Oasis. The Journal of Egyptian Archaeology, 93, 137-148.
