This week, we continue and finish our discussion of Morbid: The Seven Acolytes, an indie soulslike that was unfortunately pretty disappointing. We pick up after defeating the first Acolyte and go through to the end, saving the world of Mornia from the evil grasp of the Gahar.

The staying power of the Mortal Kombat brand is a mystery, but we're here for it... even if this movie is dumb as rocks. Cole is a down and out MMA fall guy who happens to be the heir to a great line of ninja warriors. There's also an interdimensional martial arts tournament that Sonya Blade and Jax are investigating. And Kano is here, too. Can the heroes of Earthrealm save the world, again, for the first time?

Science fiction allows us to create infinite worlds of infinite possibility, exploring truths and synthesizing concepts with no limitation whatsoever. You could, for example, say that the far future of the Earth will basically just be the 60s but with robots.

Jeremy Greer joins us to talk about the proper introduction of Sergeant Hatred and his unorthodox arching philosophy. He seems like a big dumb doofus, but there's more going on there, and he has a plan to make the Monarch's life hell by making Rusty's life heaven. And it all begins at one very lame house party.

And the award for "most obscure Lovecraft game adaptation" goes to... This thing. It's actually not that bad, though! While this is our first Hidden Object game, the genre was extremely popular with casual gamers for a while. And this seems like a good one, eschewing most of the pixel hunting for a basic point-and-click adventure setup. We honestly thought this would be worse.

Kole, Ben, Dennis, and David talk about Knockout City, Slipways, and we ask you what stats you wish games kept track of for you.
The first trailer for Elden Ring was revealed today, and we have some thoughts. This is a short reaction 'cast where we talk about what was revealed, and lay out a little bit of planning for the immediate future of the show.

This week we play the opinionated magnum opus of an opinionated creator. The Witness, created by Jonathan Blow, attempts to use puzzles and geometry to change the way you see the world, and create an engine for repeating the "a-ha!" moment over and over again. It ties one hand behind its back by communicating its mechanics in an entirely nonverbal fashion. Does it succeed at its lofty goals? Listen in to find out.
Thanks, Simon!
This delightful nugget of a game is bursting with imagination. Almost no ideas are repeated in this colorful, generous buffet of a game. Also, we talk briefly about the very, very good Bowser's Fury.
Thanks Joelle!

How many of the events in the Venture Bros. trace back to a gameshow cheating scandal? More than you'd think! Season 3 continues its exploration of backstories and origins by explaining how Billy Quizboy and Pete White met, fell from grace, and inadvertently created the Phantom Limb.

Back around the turn of the millennium, before social media forever changed what the word "celebrity" meant, "Celebrity Death Match" was a staple of the late night MTV lineup. It was an exceedingly violent claymation show where different celebrities wrestled to the death, often with "jokes" that mostly just made fun of women. They made a game out of this, and we made an episode out that game, which turns out to be the Super Smash Bros. of gathering as many sexual predators into one game as po...

Morbid: The Seven Acolytes is a top-down 2D soulslike with a really great art style, great looking bosses, and level design that's unfortunately lacking. We were really hopeful that we'd found a hidden gem, but instead we got a valuable lesson, through contrast, in what's necessary for a soulslike game to really sing.
This is the first of two episodes about Morbid: The Seven Acolytes. We cover the generalities, and the beginning of the game through the first acolyte boss fight.
