Rise of the Phoenix just ups, and Koei’s all over our day. That’s right. It’s another one of those Koei PC ports that are very crunchy, and this one is from its “Historical Simulation Series”! So, please, come listen to talk about everything else first before we have to dive into this game – we … Continue reading →

Space Megaforce, courtesy of The Randomizer, FORCES it’s way into TADPOG. Get it? We certainly did. This game turns out to be quite the surprise in more ways than one. But before we jump into the review – we talk about Hilary Swank, a Danny Devito movie, Suikoden, Vampire Survivors, FFXIV, and quite a jump … Continue reading →

Snack Time with TADPOG! Ian has a fever busy week out of town for work so we welcome him (and Bubba Drewski) back with lots of special snacks in a relaxed fit episode as there was no time to fit in a game. We do a blind burger tasting with the last 5 drive thru … Continue reading →

The Jetsons: Invasion of the Planet Pirates, ever heard it? A true gift from the Randomizer since none of us had ever heard of it or seen it.

Brutal: Paws of Fury has arrived, at long last, to TADPOG shores. You probably remember the art that was blasted all over the gaming magazines of it’s day.

The Return of What the Kids Say! The original we did many years ago with Brainy Jr. schooled us in 2019 on the slang of her day. Now in the year of our Yu Yevon 2025, Chocochica comes on to give us the latest Gen Z slang for our elder Millenial/Gen X brains. We had … Continue reading →

Super Troll Islands, that’s right. ISLANDS. Plural. So many islands of souless hairy troll faces with their butt jiggly up and down ladder. That’s not me just being weird.

Troddlers…troddles it’s way to TADPOG shores? If they want to make Troddlers a noun then I can turn it into a verb. Hey, what do toddlers and probably troddlers both love? Chicken nuggets.

Phalanx strums the old banjo into the halls of TADPOG. Have you heard of Phalanx? Maybe not. Are you millenial? Then you’ll probably recognize the iconic and weird box art.
