Our Spookilogy is complete! I know, I know, we're a month past Halloween, that didn't stop us from playing three scary games. This third one is a doozie too! Soma comes to us from the makers of Amnesia and Penumbra, and also comes to us from our good FOLMF Dr. Wendi Sierra noted scholar, game developer, writer, and big ol' fan of Soma. Thanks again for coming on the pod Wendi!
We start off talking big ideas, then get into spoilers after (11:30), then we dive into the lore a bit (43:20), and finally get into the main reason behind everything: Are we living in a simulation? (55:30)
Next month: Return to Monkey Island!!! Okay...actually only a week or so away. Can't wait to talk to the gang about this one b/c it's magnificent. Get on it!

We finally played Journey—one of our longest-awaited games and you should definitely play it. Not to spoil the episode completely, but it's a beautiful game and all three of us (minus one of us) LOVED it, plus it's only like 2 hours long so you don't have any excuses. Get on it! Also this might be our longest MOLMF ep ever, and the first to be longer than the game itself! So yeah. That's fun. 
We get into the development after a lot of horsing around off the top (14:15) then very loosely get into the gameplay (30:45) before playing a rousing game of "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (57:00). After that we get into a rather lengthy (and rambly) segment of MOLMF! In The News! (1:19:30) before unloading all of our recent addictions and binges in a wonderful visit to our dear Recommendation Station (1:39:00).
