This podcast where Ashley and Chris, two game boys, chat about titles from their personal gaming history. Each episode, one of the hosts presents a game from their childhood, including a brief history of its development and any personal anecdotes. After playing the game off-mic, the second half of the podcast is a discussion of how it holds up and whether the nostalgia factor still stands.

Sorry everyone. Because Chris is a bit of a madlad, this moment was inevitable. It's not a joke. We really are covering Solitaire on Windows. Chris has always been a risk-taker and, in line with that, he has fond memories of knocking out a few hands of the old Patience on Saturday evenings in the early 2000s. He was, and still is, an uncontrollable force of nature. Anyway, the episode is pretty good, despite everything. Give it a listen!

Ashley is extolling the virtues of Tunic this week, which is now available on all current-gen gaming devices. Its cutesy presentation and initial homage to Zelda, however, hide something much more interesting and worth your time. Tune in (pun intended) to find out more!

We're delving into the first slice of Mudokon maddness from studio Oddworld Inhabitants in the form of Abe's Oddysee. Quick to garner critical and commercial success on the PlayStation, Abe would go on to see a sequel and two remakes. But is his game worth the effort, or should he be handed over to the merciless Glukons? Listen in to find out!

Early 90s pop culture icons don't come much bigger than Mario and Sonic, but if anyone's going to give them a run for their money it would be Batman!

Will they leave thinking his game is the bat's pyjamas? Or will it all stink like a rotten penguin egg? Tune in this week to find out!

The early 90s saw entertainment titans Nintendo attempt to plant their flag in the education business with Mario is Missing! With the goal of teaching children geography, it puts brother, Luigi, in the front seat for the first time and tasks him with rescuing his kidnapped sibling by jetsetting around the world and learning lots of facts about a multitude of metropolises. Does that sound good? We thought it did, but what did we find when we played it? Listen in to find out!

The Thunder from Down Under is unleashed this week as we tackle Taz-Mania, an early forebear of the endless runner genre... but with an end. With more than a passing resemblance to classic 16-bit racers like Road Rash, it looks stunning - but does this marsupial need picking up or putting down?

Where did they come from? Where did they go? It's a couple of questions that we've been pondering in our conversation about Banjo-Kazooie, a Rare-developed and now rarely-seen animal duo that made their first appearance on the Nintendo 64. In a time where character was king, this unlikely pair managed to make the right kind of splash. Come listen in to find out why!
