The World is Conspiring Against Us – The TouchArcade Show #488

First off, we’re so sorry we missed last week’s show! As we talk about in more detail in this week’s episode, the world was conspiring against us in a number of ways that made recording last week not doable. Apologies! However, we bring the pain this week with LOTS of gaming discussion as there was plenty of stuff happening in the world of mobile gaming over the past two weeks. Links to everything we discuss this week, including 3 very cool interviews we posted, can be found in the Show Notes below.

Don’t forget to shoot us emails with any questions, feedback, or anything else relevant or irrelevant to [email protected]. We read ’em all, and love decoding messages written entirely in emoji. As always, you can listen to us with the links below… And if you like what you hear, please subscribe and/or drop us a review in iTunes. Much appreciated!

As a companion to this audio podcast, we also do a video version of the same show that is exclusive to Patreon which allows you to see us playing the games we’re talking about.
