Systems in Play returns, now with 100% more TerrificBlake! For our first ever guest episode, we discuss one of gaming's newest genres: Souls-like games. If you've ever wondered: What is Elden Ring? Why would anyone do that to themselves? Is Dark Souls a Souls-like? Am I Maidenless? Then have we got the show for you! Stick around after the great Souls-like debate for a broader discussion on what it means for a game to become a genre.

Systems in Play is a bi-weekly podcast that discusses the art of making games, and the joy of playing them. For more information, visit our website at systemsinplay.com
