R U Up 4 Q-Up? We Are.

For our last episode about a game, Q-Up takes us out with a bang. The latest incremental gamee from the makers of Universal Paperclips and Babble Royale has us in its relentlessly funny, dopamine-injecting grasp. Coin-flipping has never been this fun. After the break, Lord Vauthry makes one final appearance as we determine the fates of several reddit users in our recurring conundrums segment, Judge Vauthry!

Indika is Somehow Inconsistent and Totally Predictable

Nancy Drew: Legend of the Crystal Skull Is Technically a Nancy Drew Game

We played Nancy Drew: Legend of the Crystal Skull and... listen guys this Nancy Drew game was kind of a stinker but at least we talked about how good the other Nancy Drew games were. In the second half, we've got our rants and raves again, and this time it didn't get that serious! I promise! Enjoying Light Gaming?

Dredge Makes Us Concerned About the Dark, but Not Quite Afraid

With 2023's Dredge, we were given an interesting gameplay loop, some fun writing, as well as beautiful art and sound, but it neither lies in the space of a relaxing game or a scary game. Tune in to see if we thought Dredge really gets deep, or if it just trudges the shallows. Enjoying Light Gaming? Please consider rating, reviewing and sharing our goofy show with a friend!

The Forgotten City's Secrets Are Worth the Ferry Ride

There may not be any WiFi in The Forgotten City, but we still enjoyed our visit there very much. We talk colonialism, collective punishment, religion, and BONES! That's right, for our SPOOOKY BONE MONTH, we're talking the once-skyrim mod, now indie-darling escape room game The Forgotten City! After the ad break, our beloved JUDGE VAUTHRY makes a timely appearance to help us solve some conundrums! Listen to the episode right now, or he'll be very cross! Enjoying Light Gaming?
