Episode 429: Sickos for Polish

The Crate and Crowbar

Chris, Jamie and Marsh reminisce on the year that was, the teeth they lost, oceans they regret leaving, algorithms that have failed them and, very eventually, the games they played. Bold takes on Baldur’s Gate, Dave the Diver, Cult of the Lamb [sexy], Witchfire and Chants of Sennaar.

• Games of the year we give barely more than a namecheck to: Cocoon, Destiny 2, Jedi Survivor, Vampire Survivors, Hunt: Showdown
• Baldur’s Gate 3: game of the year or… game of the decade?!
• Cult of the Lamb, a cartoon action roguelike soon to feature sex, by popular demand.
• Dave the Diver, a multi-genre sushi experience.
• Witchfire, an early access spooky shooter set in the witch era, but with more ACOG sights.
• Tallboys making a game about a tall boy: Militsioner
• The historical triumphs and ellisions of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey VS a short holiday to off-season Athens.
• Chants of Sennaar, a terrific linguistic puzzle game.
