Episode 211: An Etch A Sketch’s Dream Of Itself

2 hours 46 minutes

Chris, Pip and Tom discuss the new Zachtronics game, the closure of Visceral, A Mortician’s Tale, Shadow of War, and more.

Plus: Babe Runner: Pig In The City, the midpoint between The Raid and Watership Down, hot cauliflower facts, inadvisable waffle digressions, and some videogame questions maybe? Jury’s out on that one.

Here’s the trailer for Zachtronics’ very pretty Opus Magnum.

Team Fortress 2’s new update comes with the first new animated short in ages.

Overgrowth is out! Chris didn’t know that Overgrowth wasn’t out.

The closure of Visceral means an end to Amy Hennig and co’s Star Wars project.

Pip’s been playing A Mortician’s Tale. Here’s her review for PC Gamer, where she works now!

Tom F is still making headway in Shadow of War, while Tom S has simply been looking at Talion’s face.
