  3. Leiden University recently named a new building for #Egyptologist Herta Mohr. But who was she?

    The new Leiden University building bears the name of Herta Mohr. Her life story has become more clear over the past few years, largely thanks to the detective work of Egyptologist Nicky van de Beek. In this episode of the UBL #podcast, Van de Beek talks about the wonderful life and tragic fate of Jewish scholar Herta Mohr.

  6. Some other titles still forthcoming on my #steam #wishlist are:

    - #VampireBloodlines2 - I really hope this is still a thing and will not simply be cancelled at some point. That franchise absolutely deserves another great title - one of the best roleplay universes there is!

    - #BuildersOfEgypt - well, don't judge an #Egyptologist for wanting another modern and beautiful Egypt simulation. :)

    - #Paralives - not happening in 2023 for sure, but I am SO looking forward to it! The #Sims-"killer" we might have been waiting for.

    - #FataDeum - a potential spiritual successor of #BlackAndWhite, though I must confess I was not super convinced so far.

    - #Homeworld3 - Mothership needs to make hyperjump!

    - #ResidentEvil4 - @SaddlerFan will probably agree with this one. ;)

  7. Uh - I've just seen, #PharaohANewEra has been released! A 4k remake of the good old classic "#Pharaoh" and its expansion "#Cleopatra"!

    I fear, as an #Egyptologist that one is a must-buy for me.

  8. Considered following an #Egyptologist but when I looked at her timeline I discovered we hadn't a toot in common... 🤩
