Episode 446: Baby’s First Cosmic Horror



Click ‘Use’, then click ‘Pod’. Success! You have unlocked access to an episode of adventure game discussion from the steamy podding lairs of Jamie and Tom!

First we turn our attentions to the fine timeline-twisting futuristic adventure game, Old Skies. We’re enjoying it greatly, along with Unavowed and the rest of Wadjet Eye Games collection.

Also Tom brought along a rough top five adventure games list (that he wishes he’d put Last Express on, or Siberia, or a dozen others). With the addition of Jamie’s suggestions we embark on a bit of time travel ourselves, remembering why these games captured our imaginations in spite of some abslutely honking puzzles.
