Episode 33 - One Hour One Life

Blake and Jordan play Jason Rohrer’s newest game, titled One Hour, One Life. Certainly one of the most original and inventive games we’ve played for the podcast, Rohrer’s multiplayer game is an experiment in collective world-building: dependent on other real people players for gameplay, you play as one human being in a civilization vastly more complicated than what you could create alone. We talk about how remarkable it is that players have been cooperating as much as they have been, and Blake tells the oddly touching story of one of his most meaningful in-game lives.
