Link's at it again, but this time, he's got company! And a prosthetic arm. Is it prosthetic? Grafted? Yeah, let's go with that. A posse and a grafted arm. And batteries! Can't forget the batteries. Oh, and the Kinder(TM) Surprise(TM?) capsules full of useful goodies to build a whole fleet of ridiculous contraptions. Is that it? Of course it isn't! There's so much more to talk about with Tears of the Kingdom, and Chris and Ashley do just that in this week's episode. Come give it a listen!

We journey way back to 1977 this week to visit Zork, a text-based adventure game that laid the foundations for what the adventure genre evolved into. With nowt but white writing to fuel our imagination, will Zork be a corker or will it make us balk?

A game based on the story of the Old Testament's Noah might not float everybody's boat at first contact but, far from sinking like a stone, Chris and Ashley find a lot in this NES platformer to keep the conversation buoyant.

Chris takes Ashley to the World of Balance this week for Final Fantasy VI, a sprawling sprite-filled SNES sensation that Chris played as a PlayStation port instead of the original. Its steampunk sensibilities and cracking gameplay mean it's incredibly well-regarded by critics and fans alike so we were really buzzed to try it - find out how we got on!
Chris mentioned a Kotaku retrospective during the second half, which highlights some particular moments - click here to read it: https://kotaku.com/final-fantasy-vi-retrospective-simply-the-best-1792398695
