The Price Is Retro If this is your first time playing Price Is Retro, here's how we play. I'm going to list off 4 or 5 games and everyone has to guess how much the lot is worth in total. Whoever is closest to the actual value wins that round! Everyone has a list and everyone guesses on each other's list. At the end, the player that won the most rounds wins the episode! But watch out for the robot Deus Guess Machina! He averages all of our guesses together for his own guess Shan's list Sam's list John's list Dan's list Trivia Card Show Topic Civilization: The series began in 1991 on PC, developed by Microprose, several staff member who worked on the series also made their mark on strategy games later elsewhere.
