Hey, you know how we mostly talk about games we like on this show? Well, here's a change of pace for you! That's right, here's an entire episode on games we think you shouldn't play - either because they're unplayable as written, wracked by production errors, or just really, really bad. Don't give up hope, though - we do have recommendations for better games that we think you should play instead. Listen along as:
- None of us can remember which of Fast Food Franchise and Food Chain Magnate is which.
- Mike is very annoyed that he didn't get to play one of the games you should never play.
- The ritual of Throwing A Die, and its origin in...[checks notes]...boring goat-fondling?
- When the nicest thing you can say about a game company is, "They make really nice bags."
- Was this Kickstarter a troll, a money-laundering scheme, or just a series of really terrible ideas? The world may never know.
And, of course, we have plenty of other random links and stuff!
- A fascinating video about Tank (Turn) Tactics, a game deemed too divisive to release, as well as a longer one from the Game Developers Conference.
- Jerrycans are amazing.
- This game doesn't work at all? Dice Tower approved!
- Coma Ward's (truncated) retrospective design blog.
- The Dragon's Tomb teaches Jenga!
