Earth Solo Playthrough | Bits & Biology

Welcome to Bits & Biology, a channel about board games from the perspective of a biologist gamer. In this video I play a solo game of Earth after mentioning how Earth Day got started and a brief discussion of the new Earth expansion, Earth: Abundance. Timestamps can be found below in case you want to skip around.
