It is interesting.

I have the source of the reddit post right here if you want to read through it, and Sid Meier's reaction to hearing about the game.

Its not surprising it took CNN over a month to make something about this. XD

The guy seems to talk about it as if it's real. It's just AI created 12+ years ago.

Yeah, it was very strange reading that article. This guy should run for president. He seems to know how to run a society even during troubled times.

There's something really awesome about someone not just playing the same game for so long (we all do that here) but playing in a world where one can have real impact.
