    The Wolf Among Us – VGBC (Part Three: Episodes 4 & 5 – Finale) | JK! Games

    We finished The Wolf Among Us and broke down the final chapters of Telltale’s noir fairy-tale mystery. We break down our biggest decisions from the final two episodes and discuss what we thought of the series as a whole. The ending left us with a lot to unpack, so we spend time talking through what it means, what worked for us, and where things felt unclear. We also look ahead at what a future entry could be, even with the very real development challenges the series has faced. Whether this was your first playthrough or a long-overdue return to Fabletown, Easy Mode or Expert, you belong in the conversation. 00:00 – Start 11:05 – Easy Mode – Spoiler-Free Review + Recap 28:55 – Normal Mode – Spoilers + Episode Breakdowns 53:50 – Themes: Government, Power & Corruption 1:59:38 – Expert Mode – What Do We Want in a Sequel? 2:12:00 – Final Thoughts & Wrap-Up Support the show JK!

    Why You Should Play Life Is Strange – JK! Games!

    This week we’re doing something a little different – we’re making the case for the Life Is Strange series. If you’ve ever been curious about these games but didn’t know where to start, this episode is for you. For most of the show we stay completely spoiler-free, walking through what makes Life Is Strange special: its storytelling, themes, music, characters, and why it continues to resonate years later. At the very end, we shift into full spoiler territory to talk about our predictions for the next entry in the series – which we now know is called Life Is Strange: Reunion. At the time of recording, we had no idea, so enjoy hearing how close (or wildly off) we ended up being. Whether you’ve never touched the series or you’re already a fan, this is our love letter to one of gaming’s most unique franchises. TIMECODES 00:00 - Start 06:15 – Housekeeping 09:26 – Episode Announcement 13:01 – Why You Should Play Life Is Strange 19:14 – Series Timeline & Core Themes 1:45:31 – Predictions for the Next Game (Spoilers) Support the show JK!

    Arcane Rewatch vs First Time Watch | JK! Games

    It’s a special birthday episode of JK! Games! and the perfect excuse to revisit Arcane — one of the best video game adaptations ever made. Kayla and Jerica return to Arcane with fresh eyes, while Josh watches the series for the first time just for this episode. Instead of a full plot recap, we focus on how Arcane holds up years later, how it lands for someone new, and why it still sets the bar for video game adaptations. We talk characters, themes, animation, emotional impact, and whether Arcane works even if you’ve never touched League of Legends. Timecodes 00:00 Start 11:20 What Video Games Would Arcane Characters Play? 26:52 Josh’s First Watch Thoughts 29:18 Is Arcane Really a League of Legends Show? 33:01 Game Adaptations & Expectations 44:15 SPOILERS BEGIN 47:25 Characters & Relationships 1:12:21 Themes & World Support the show JK!

    Our Most Anticipated Games of 2026 & Beyond | JK! Games!

    Instead of rattling off separate hype lists, we did something different. This episode, we combined our most anticipated games of 2026 and beyond into one shared Top 10, built on overlap first and personal taste second. If a game showed up on multiple lists, it ranked higher — and anything that didn’t make the cut landed in honorable mentions. Let us know which game you’re most excited for — or which one you think we completely missed?
