Today on Never Was A Gamer, we're kicking off our second season with Katamari Damacy!

This season, we're changing our format a bit. Instead of spending 2 episodes on each game, we're organizing episodes into "arcs": groups of 3-4 episodes where we tackle games that explore a certain theme. Katamari Damacy is the first game and episode in our first arc, which we're calling "unusual mechanics-driven games" - games that stood out for their focus on their own distinctive mechanics, mostly from the early 2000s. Join us - this one is pretty special!
