Welcome to episode 237

We kick off with discussing Valentine’s Day, traditionally a day for spoiling the ladies, and we find out Denmark has a special day to follow up for the guys. it doesn’t quite have the same romantic name, we also find out Zaber would not skip games night for love.

Ram gives us a little bit of background on the concept of prepper’s, people getting prepared for the worst case scenarios but stocking up on supplies and building bunkers. This brings onto what he’s been playing in Mr Prepper. You have to build a bunker, scavane or trade supplies and maintain a facade for the oppressive government agents. All to get to the end goal of escaping from the country. The game has been generally well received and has some neat ideas, but Ram feels it lets itself down with a grinding slog to get what you need and not being partially hard.

Zaber has been playing a horror game called Little Nightmares, playing as a small girl trying to navigate through puzzle’s with stealth to escape a nightmarish world filled with mutated people. Short but sweet and looks amazing.

Ram has been continuing making use of his free trial of Apple TV by watching For All Mankind, an alternative timeline tv series where the Russians won the race to moon, kicking off a space race with time jumps between seasons spanning it over several decades.

We also discussed the now deceased game streaming service Stadia and how elite we were at Pubg.
