Episode 84 - The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
Wednesday Nov 06, 2024
Wednesday Nov 06, 2024
Christina played through The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and it's a wonderful throwback to the Zelda games of old. Except not! Because you play as Zelda! And get to use things like in Tears of the Kingdom! It's just all-around fun.

Episode 83 - Alan Wake 2: The Lake House DLC
Monday Oct 28, 2024
Monday Oct 28, 2024
It's a second spooky episode this year! Matthew finished the second and final DLC for Alan Wake 2: The Lake House. It's a return to basics for the survival horror series and fun to step back into Cauldron Lake. We just hope Control 2 shows up sooner rather than later.

Episode 82 - Inscryption

Monday Oct 21, 2024
For our annual spooky game episode, Matthew played through Inscryption, which starts out as a tabletop card game in a spooky cabin you can't escape and gets a little stranger from there. It's a fun, quick play, but that first act is definitely the highlight.

Episode 81 - Dungeons of Hinterberg

Monday Sep 16, 2024
Christina played Dungeons of Hinterberg while Matthew backseat gamed on the puzzles in the dungeons. This is the perfect blend of cozy and action RPG and can really be as much or as little of both as you want it to be.

Episode 80 - Sun Haven

Tuesday Aug 27, 2024
Christina played through almost two seasons of Sun Haven, which is a fantasy farming sim/RPG reminiscent of Stardew Valley. So yes. She and Matthew draw many comparisons and parallels. If you're in the market for a new game in this genre, this wouldn't be a bad choice.

Episode 79 - Stellar Blade

Friday Jul 26, 2024
If you want some of the best combat out there, both in looks and feel, then man do we have a game for you. Stellar Blade absolutely rocks the combat. The story is absolutely nothing to write home about and all of the characters are bland, but we'll be dreaming about that combat for quite some time.

Episode 78 - Alan Wake 2: Night Springs DLC

Tuesday Jun 11, 2024
Matthew and Christina jumped headfirst into the Alan Wake 2: Night Springs DLC. It's all sorts of wonderful, from a pitch-perfect fanfic to a Control tie-in to multiverse traversal a la Quantum Break (if we can even say that), fans will really enjoy these three bite-sized episodes. We absolutely did. You shouldn't even be surprised; we're drinking the Remedyverse Kool-Aid.

Episode 77 - Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Tuesday May 28, 2024
Tuesday May 28, 2024
In the rephrased words of Milhouse on The Simpsons, "It took two months, but we did it. It's done." Spoiler alert: We did not like this game, and that may make this our most controversial episode. Let's talk about it!

Episode 76 - Hades II Early Access First Impressions
Monday May 13, 2024
Monday May 13, 2024
Hades II launched into early access on PC out of the blue, and Christina has been playing the crap out of it. This game is incredibly polished for being early access, and these are our thoughts on it after playing about a dozen or so hours!

Matthew is slowly making his way through Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and we give our impressions on the first half of the game. And then pivot to how much we both loved the Stellar Blade demo!
