The Bonus Points

This might be the most obscure game we've done (despite it selling 1.5 million copies). Maybe more of an audio/visual art piece than a game, we dive in to the short and experimental world of Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP and see what was 'cutting edge' in 2011.

This game is an absolute BANGER and somewhat forgotten by Nintendo themselves. The first game where Mario is truly 'acrobatic', it twists after the 4th (and normally final) stage of the game to reveal a whopping 97 more stages to complete. Made for a fun episode, it's always an easy going one when the game is good!

This episode is a fun one, and if you've not blasted through Titanfall 2, we recommend you should! It's about 4 hours long and £3 on LOTS of platforms. A real rollercoaster of a game. We go in depth on each stage of the game which is an unusual format for us but the game is so short its possible here.
