Psitanium Mine

It’s always a pleasure to play a nice management sim and in this episode we discuss Tavern Master. Here we will build out our tavern, make a hotel, cook some food and host some distinguished dignitaries. Can we get the entire medieval town drunk? Well, yeah, but can we make a profit doing so? Still working on that.

It’s a good old-fashioned demo round-up! Yeehaw!

On this Psitanium Mine, we hit the streets as a cat in Little Kitty, Big City. Then we build the untamed wilderness one tile at a time in Above Snakes. We find out what would happen if Vampire Survivors and Hades in Death Must Die! Finally, we get to live the dream of befriending dinosaurs in the cozy game Paleo Pines.

Daggerfall is the largest Elder Scrolls game ever. Skyrim is but a fraction it’s size. Oblivion could fit in Daggerfall’s pocket. But the problem is that the game is very old. Luckily, a Unity version was made a few years ago, in an attempt to update the game for modern audiences. But can the old-school Daggerfall survive the modern gamer… i.e. Me? Let’s find out.

And here we are, with my top 10. Well, the other 10. But the top 5 I swear is the real top 5. I'm not good at ranking things. What games stuck with me through all these years? Watch to find out.

Do you ever get depressed with the current state of games? I did toward the beginning of the year and it led me to put together a list of my favorite games of all time. Make a note that this does not mean the games I think are the best, but my personal favorites.

This is part 1, handling numbers 20-11, although we're playing very fast and loose with our numbering system here.

So, recently I stumbled into my Amazon Games account that I barely remember having. Come to find out I had many games ready to claim and, on a lark, I thought I would try playing some of them. On this episode, we are going to look at Kardboard Kings, Grime and Abandon Ship… for better or worse. Gonna have to check out the episode to find out which is which.

Farming is always better with magic and Homestead Arcana delivers in that regard. So, let's grow some crops, obsessively tend to them, talk to a cat and throw on a plague doctor mask to explore an infected world. Oh, the places you'll go... on a broomstick.

We now return to the cozy life sim with No Place Like Home, a game about returning to an Earth covered in trash… so everything is basically the same. Ellen comes to look for her grandfather and does some tidying up along the way, building a farm and battling spider robots. Just another day in the post-apocalypse.

Atomic Heart is what happens if you took the concept of Bioshock and placed it in the post-WW2 Soviet Union. And it feels like the Russian version of a dystopic alternate history. To some degree, it works, and yet in many others, it falls short. So, what went right and wrong and is it actually Russian propaganda?
