    Lexiconquest

    After a few false starts with an anti-tycoon game concept and a Miitomo + Tinder hybrid, we settle into what might be our greatest idea yet: a marriage of Scribblenauts and Bookworm Adventures that redefines what edutainment can be.

    Exquisite Corpse

    Exquisite Corpse

    We return from E3 chock-full of inspiration, which leads us to design a DDR game for horses, Call of Duty's new wizard class, and a video game loosely inspired by the parlour game Exquisite Corpse.

    It's E3 time, which means we're once again, despite our better judgment, getting in a hot tub with some friends and some alcohol and recording a wet and wild hot tub episode, featuring just about every friend we could get our hands on.

Fairly Embarrassing ,

Public Weirdo

I can no longer listen to this podcast in public because I regularly get weird looks for laughing by myself while looking into the middle ground, walking around the local grocery store. People have expressed concern and as such I now listen to it alone at home, while I'm playing Animal Crossing. 5/5 would recommend

Funny funny game boys

Game reviewers and goof creators Nick & Griffin return week after week with lots of energi and enthusiasm (even when Griffin is sick or haunted by the ghost of a crash test dummy) and deliver bizarre game concepts based on listener suggestion spiced with videogame references, fresh and retro. They mix in clever mechanics, marketing ploys, episodic modifiers, and invite in guests (every once in a while) keeping it from ever leaving a state of continous improvised fantastic chaos.
I love it.
