The MinnMax Show MinnMax

MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Janet Garcia, Haley MacLean, and Kyle Hilliard talk about the absurdity of Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble before taking a turn for the sick and twisted by talking about Luigi's haunted mansions, outer space's killer klowns, and Sweeny Todd simulators. Then we're joined by From Software Twitch streamer Ellie Joy Panic to dissect Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree before we dive into wonderful questions submitted on Patreon! If you support MinnMax on Patreon before the end of Friday, June 28th we'll DM you with a Steam code for 2024's Metroidvania Tales of Kenzera: Zau! https://www.patreon.com/minnmax
