Show notes

407 - Dirty Harry Dec 12, 2025

Show notes

You stomp through pixelated alleys, docks, and bizarre sewer mazes as a scowling block of justice with a revolver the size of the screen. Every thug, sniper, and explosive trash can feels like an excuse for Harry to growl a one liner and keep walking. It is clunky, mean, and weird in all the ways an 8 bit cop fantasy probably should be.

405 - Deja Vu: A Nightmare Comes True!! Nov 28, 2025

Show notes

You wake up in a filthy bathroom, memory shredded, trench coat on, with Chicago’s icy wind waiting outside the window. Every screen is a little noir diorama where you poke, examine, and piece together a murder you might have had a hand in. The interface feels like rifling through a cluttered desk drawer, but uncovering the truth is as satisfying as solving your own crime novel.

404 - Bandit Kings of Ancient China Nov 21, 2025

Show notes

A wall of menus hides an epic saga of warlords, droughts, and desperate rice shortages as you slowly stitch a battered China back together. One season you are recruiting wandering heroes in smoky taverns, the next you are marching armies across the map while praying the harvest does not fail. It feels less like an NES game and more like running a tiny, pixelated kingdom where every decision can doom or redeem your legend.

403 - The Adventures of Rad Gravity Nov 14, 2025

Show notes

In this game you are Rad Gravity, a futuristic heroic spaceman. A mad scientist disrupts the peaceful universe and it is your job to visit various planets to re-establish contact between all the worlds. Sights vary between verdant planets, lava pits and hazardous jumps, with gravity variations and craters.
