179: Rolando – Royal Edition


Listen Later

Do you know what they call a Rolando in Paris? That’s right, they call it a Rolando: Royal Edition.

One of the earliest smash hit iOS games has just received a beautiful remaster and re-release, years after being pulled from the store. We discuss our early iOS gaming memories, talk about this beautiful new version of a classic, and discuss the problems with iOS game preservation, as well as some possible solutions!

Rolando: Royal Edition is available now on the iOS App Store for $2.99. Expect it to take about 3-5 hours to complete.
