APOLOGIES FOR THE QUALITY: THIS IS AN AUDIO FEED OF A STREAMED VIDEO EPISODE. INTERNET IS NOT GREAT AT PAX. Edie and Nick sit down in a quiet spot at PAX West and give their opinions of what games they tried out on Day 2, including Fractured Blooms, God Save Birmingham, Be My Horde, Truckful, and Lost Eidelons: Veil of the Witch.

Edie and Nick chat with Zhenghua “Z” Yang, founder creative director of Serenity Forge, about Fractured Blooms, a cozy gardening-sim/horror game that sounds insane but does a great job of really scaring the pants off you.

Nick and Edie talk with Michal Kaminski, Marketing Manager from Mythic Owl, about Truckful, a cozy little delivery-sim-meets-horror game. Yeah, we said that. And it's glorious!

Edie chats with Lukasz Kostka, head of marketing for Polished Games, about Be My Horde, an insanely fun survival game with a twist: you don't actually fight. Available now on Steam... and it works great on the Steamdeck!

Nick and Edie chat with John Gelardi, Creative Director of WDR Studios, about Terrible Lizards, a parcour survival game set in a dinosaur-themed roadside attraction. Let's just say, it's not what it first seems.

Nick and Edie talk with Guinn Kim, Content Manager of Ocean Drive Studios, about God Save Birmingham, their upcoming zombie survival game set in the midieval city of Birmingham, England, currently in pre-alpha.

Nick talks to Jin Sang Kim, Creative Director, for Lost Eidolons: Veil of the Witch, the sequel of Lost Eidelons with a very different structure of the original title, with more focus on combat.

Edie and Nick speak with Stephen Manalastas, CEO of CMD Studios, about their title, Fallen Tear, a Metroidvania-like, J-RPG platformer.

Edie and Nick chat with Jaime Stormbreaker, game director and lead designer of One More Game's upcoming title, Swap Meat, a third-person, co-op, roguelike shooter that Nick had a blast playing.

Edie and Nick take a break from the show floor for some food and some talk, specifically about the games they put their hands on that morning. Titles include Borderlands 4, Pragmata, and Swap Meat.
