Game Pass or Pass

From the minds that brought you Limbo and Inside comes Somerville. A puzzle based game that takes players on a journey through a world that was devastated by some type of alien invasion. With its striking art style and somber feel, Somerville looks to capture the same essence and its predecessors and create a connection with its players through world based story telling.

Scorn wears its inspirations right on it sleeve. The inspirations from things like Alien are present but imitation is the finest form of flattery? When it comes to gameplay however the story changes some. Built like a first person adventure game with light FPS mechanics, Scorn looks to win you over with its vast array of odd finger shaped holes to explore. Does this first person adventure have what it takes to break out of that Walking Simulator cliche?

We had questions from our loyal listeners and we wanted to address them in one episode to really dive deep. WIth Cloud gaming being a pillar of Microsoft's strategy, Google shutting down Stadia is a fascinating product to deconstruct.

On this dual episode we have two games that couldn't be more different. Metal Hellsinger is a first person rhythm based shooter that asks the players to shoot enemies on the beat. The better in sync you are the more heavy and energetic the music gets. Chinatown Detective Agency is far more relaxed and takes ideas from the older Where in the World is Carmen San Diego titles that want you to use real world locations and clues to solve mysteries.
