Chris gives Ashley a bad time this week by trying to sneak a Sonic game under the radar. Blue Sphere is an early example of an Easter egg - a set of over 134 million versons of the special stage from Sonic 3, which can only be accessed by popping a Sonic 1 cartridge into the lock-on technology offered by Sonic and Knuckles. Is this 'game' as fun as that sounds? Listen in to find out!

Chris and Ashley take a trip to Monument Valley, this game where you control a princess through a series of visually pleasing landscapes in a puzzler inspired by Escher and optical illusions. The game released this week on PC after a mobile release back in 2014 but how does it hold up?

Chris and Ashley play a classic found in pretty much every 90s arcade this week with Puzzle Bobble, or Bust-A-Move, depending where you're playing it. The game see you firing coloured bubbles at other bubbles to make them pop. It sounds simple - and it is - but it entranced children and adults alike when it came out. Come and find out if it can do the same now!

The tables are turned this week as Ashley chooses a game that he's never played before that just so happens to be one of Chris' favourites! Little Big Adventure is a 1994 French action-adventure-RPF hybrid set on a dystopian planet - but was it worth the decade-long wait for Ashley to play it?
