Nov 20 2023 43 mins

Bashing into our 34th episode slot is a 2015 game from Moon Studios. Centering on a baby Night Fury and taking place in a woodland of incredible beauty, Ori and the Blind Forest is an easy sell at face value.

Episode 29: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door - Baby's First JRPG

Jul 05 2022 96 mins

In this episode, we take the trip back to 2004 and hunker down with a Gamecube classic: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

Jun 21 2022 123 mins
