March 07, 2023 032 - Chenso Club, When the Past Was Around, & Slay the Spire
Roguelikes aren't our typical bag, but we've been pleasantly surprised before! Will this episode reveal another game we love in a genre we don't? To find out, you'll have to get slimed, choose your cards wisely, and kill the tower with us! Wait, that's not right... murder the pillar? Merc... the... obelisk? All of the above, we suppose.

February 28, 2023 031 - Those Who Remain, Rusty Lake Hotel, & Amnesia: The Dark Descent
If you're looking to be scared while on holiday, look no further; Prussia's hottest club is Castle Brennenburg. As you step through the flesh-covered halls of this nightmarish hotspot, you'll be greeted by none other than Alexander the Baron. This place has everything: forgotten diary notes, broken elevators, invisible water monsters, naked dead things, and dead naked things.

February 14, 2023 029 - Narita Boy, The Last Campfire, & Solar Ash
Heart Machine throws us into dizzying new heights in their first 3D adventure. Power up your Starseeds and crack open a Voidrunner cache, because our thoughts are just a hop, skate, and a jump away.

February 07, 2023 028 - Thumper, Carto, & Sayonara Wild Hearts
Not long ago, in a town much like yours, there were two indie game fans who played something so great that their hearts grew enthusiastically and their joy echoed through space and time. So our saga begins tonight, yet eons ago. Just here, yet light years away.

January 31, 2023 027 - METAGAL, Neverending Nightmares, & Yooka-Laylee
Rare-vivals are rare to come by! We've taken a tonic from Vendi the vending machine that brings us back to the rose-colored late '90s, a time when platforming heroes came in pairs, collection was king, and a 3D genre was born.

January 24, 2023 026 - Wattam, Toree 2, & Return of the Obra Dinn
What exactly does a bosun do, and why do they need their own mate? What kind of clothing does a topman wear? WHO THE HECK ARE HAT MAN AND TATTOO GUY? These are just some of the questions we asked as we repeatedly paced bow to stern in Lucas Pope's seafaring mystery game. Who knew the life of an insurance investigator could be so interesting?

January 17, 2023 025 - Rain World, The Procession to Calvary, & Stray
What's better than this, felines being strays? We're cat lovers and we played THE cat game everyone couldn't wait for. If we had CRT monitors for heads, you'd see hearts on our faces right now.

We're featuring an early entry in the "Games That Made Us Cry in the Past" category. Will we be lovesick enough to cry again? Now, don't just skip to our main review! In the words of Dr. Rosalene, "The ending isn't any more important than any of the moments leading to it."
