Episode description

This week's episode is a look into a specific area of video games. I am joined by Drs Kate Cook and Jane Draycott to discuss their recently released book "Women in Classical Video Games" from Bloomsbury Press which focuses on the representation of women in video games that are set in or inspired by classical antiquity. Think Assassin's Creed, God of War, Hades etc..

I had a fantastic conversation with them both and really enjoyed learning about what this book has to offer. Please consider checking out the book at Bloomsbury Press's website listed below:
