  • 1P 386 - Lost in Adventure: The Labyrinth
    Oct 4 2025

    This time around we talk about Lost in Adventure: The Labyrinth. It's a light point-and-click style adventure that will feel familiar to folks that played Cantaloop or video games like Leisure Suit Larry, Monkey Island and all those old games. This game feels like those but quite a bit lighter.

    This week we learn about a new cozy game about books. More specifically, storing books all over your house. As a gamer, this surely sounds familiar.

  • 1P 382 - Maki Master
    Aug 2 2025

    This week Julius talks about Maki Masters, a game about preparing the best sushi recipes by carefully arranging ingredients on the preparation mat. This is basically a tile laying game in which you are trying to arrange the ingredients to complete recipes. However, this game brings some really nice looking components, especially if you have the deluxified edition.

  • 1P 381 - Conservas
    Jul 19 2025

    This week I tell Julius all about managing a finishing and canning business while trying to keep ecological balance in Conservas. It's a bag-building game by Scott Almes in which you are catching fish to sell in the market. While doing this, you need to be careful and not overfish or risk unbalancing the ecosystem and losing the game.

    It's a fun and cozy (it turns out) bag-building game.

  • 1P 379 - One Hit Heroes
    Jun 21 2025

    This week Julius shares One Hit Heroes with us. It's a game about fighting super-villains that are supposedly way more powerful than the heroes. It's a co-operative game that can be played solo or multi-handed solo.

    We got into some audio trouble just past the halfway mark around 23 minutes in. From then on, you'll hear lots of clicking and gaps in Julius's voice. I wasn't able to fix that; but, I was able to fix his pitch which went up a tiny bit. It sounded as if he'd been on helium for the last 15 minutes :D
