Around the World in 80 Games - New Zealand (Episode 5)
We’re off to Australasia to check out the videogames of New Zealand!
Jonathan staves off ichthyic madness in Dredge, and Chris revisits Shatter, a modernised take on a the brick breaker genre.
But before any of that, OF COURSE there’s a good 45 minutes of waffle about other games we’ve been playing!
Chris has a right old moan about Starfield’s bizarre design missteps. Jonathan plays through almost the entirety of The Legend of Zelda’s formative 2D past. Chris realises that ‘scoring goals, goals, goals is what he does best’ in recent indie release Sociable Soccer. Jonathan sinks 550,000 hours into game du jour Balatro.
There’s more, naturally, but you’ll have to do a bit of the work and actually listen to the fruits of our mouths and brains to find it.
Is that alright? Yeah? GOOD.

Around the World in 80 Games - Poland (Episode 4)
POLAND!
There are so many great titles produced in Poland: Cyberpunk 2077, This War of Mine, Dead Island, Outrunners; the list goes on. which is OF COURSE why Chris spent a chunk of the month playing Teyon’s execrable Rambo: The Game. Jonathan tries a little harder with his homework, smashing through One More Level’s sublime Ghostrunner 2.
Also! Thoughts on modern games like Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, Palworld, and Playdate treat Under the Castle as well as thoughts on old games like Rez (zzz), Lumines (double zzz) and Screaming Mad George’s Paranoiascape (!!!).

Welkom allemaal!
We’re back on our globe trotting adventure, exploring the games of the Netherlands with special focus on Guerrilla Games’ Horizon series, and Rusty Lake’s… well, Rusty Lake series.
Plus - because we’re good to you lot - Jonathan’s here to tell you all about his recent romp through Dark Souls 3 on the Steam Deck as well as Vampire Survivors copycat Halls of Torment, and Chris has some long tedious updates about his emulation setup. He’s been playing some old tosh via Wii emulation apparently?
GAMES, GAMES, and would you Adam and Eve it, MORE BLEEDIN’ GAMES.

BONUS LEVEL - 2023 END OF YEAR SPECIAL
2023 may well be DEAD and BURIED, but what of its gaming legacy?
Join ol’ Jonathan and Chris for their thoughts on the year that was.
How many games did the boys finish between them over the last 12 months? What were the best games of 2023? What were the best games not of 2023 that we played in 2023 for the first time? How’s the Playdate ecosystem getting on? What’s on the gaming docket for 2024?
A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

Around the World in 80 Games - Denmark (Episode 1)
As the plane wheels touch down at CPH, season 6 starts proper. Around the World in 80 Games starts in earnest, TODAY. It’s got a bleedin’ jingle and everything!
There’s Danish facts, Danish games, and Danish jokes. But also, in depth looks at Hitman: World of Assassination (as well as the franchise as a whole) as well as the brand spanking new puzzler from former-Playdead lead Jeppe Carlsen: Cocoon!
Of course, we also update on what we’ve been playing in the last month with thoughts a selection of games including: Windowsill, a Playdate grab bag, Lies of P, and the sometimes nauseatingly bright and colourful (but in a good way) Super Mario Bros Wonder.
Prepare for boarding!

Customer Reviews
Listen up
Easily my favourite gaming podcast for years now. A brilliantly insightful, varied, and always humorous look at games past and present. Very much a guide to what you should play.
Great for video game talk
Love that the team discuss maybe the less common video games, really worth listening to!
Brilliant
These guys are great. They love games and talk about a lot of hidden gems. I also like fact that they don’t really have many guests as guests are usually are boring.
