Bubbles are back, baby. Everyone's talking about them, not least of all Chris and Ashley who are this week playing the OG bubble blaster, Bubble Bobble on the Sega Master System. It's a game that's got it all: dinosaurs, bubbles, dragons, more bubbles, questionable pickups, and still more bubbles. But is it any good? Listen in and find out!

Normally, Chris and Ashley only ever gotta go fast when they're hanging about with sketchy blue spiny mammals, but this week, just like Markus Zuckybug instructed, they're using cars to proceed quickly and smash stuff in Burnout Revenge! Like a big boy's version of a kart racer, the player is tasked with forcing other racers off the road, into walls and over cliffs so that they can be victorious. Is it any good? Listen in and find out!

It's Hallowe'en so we're celebrating all things that go bump in the night by visiting MediEvil on what is its 25th anniversary! This 3D platforming-action-hack 'n' slash hybrid was enjoyed by Chris immensely back in the day so join us as we exhume it for a post-mortem.

Ahead of the imminent arrival of its sequel, Chris and Ashley are taking another look at Cities: Skylines, a game Ashley has been playing on and off for many years (and first discussed back on episode 19). Will Chris finish up with the city-building bug, or will his dream of a town of one's own go up in flames? Listen in to find out!

Chris shows Ashley Constructor this week, a game that he may or may not have actually played. A man-sim in which you acquire land, build facilities on said land and then build houses to shelter tenants to work in the factories on said land, its 1997 sensibilities seem a little outdated. Listen in as we tuck into Constructor and deduct whether it sucks or not.

Ashley is once more bucking the system and fighting the power to bring a brand new game to our retro gaming format. Sea of Stars deserves its place as an exception to the general rules of the show, or so Ashley says. Listen along as Chris gets an earful all about just how exceptional Sabotage Studio's gem of a JRPG really is!
