Underplayed

Bo_Po and DiscoCola

On Underplayed, Bo_Po and DiscoCola review indie games of all kinds—the games with small budgets but big hearts, the lesser-known experiences with imaginative ideas. A typical episode has two main segments: first, we each reveal and review a game we've been playing in secret; then, we have an in-depth discussion on a prestigious title within the indie landscape.
