After the launch of Don't Starve, Canadian developer Klei Entertainment was on solid ground in every way. They'd put their hand to many genres and had been successful in pretty much all of them. We're going back to 2015 (or 2013, if you want to include this game's EARLY early access launch) when they revisited sneaking, but put a different spin on what they'd done before. We're talking Invisible, Inc.On this episode of Stealth Boom Boom, we chat a little bit about why this game changed its name, and what stealthy aspects they could explore here that they didn't in Mark of the Ninja. We also look at trying to enjoy the journey in difficult games, rather than just seeking the reward; and we chat about how much we enjoy early access vs its importance to devs. Here are some of the things you're gonna hear us chat about in our review: Soliton Radar: The Game; red, yellow, and blue EVERYWHERE; peeking around corners to uncover more of the map; Monaco: What's Yours Is Mine; a camera you don't have full control of; a procedurally-generated table that's just in the way; a slow and exhilarating chase; forecasting the movement of guards; five rewinds; single malt; the wonderfully-balanced and easy-to-use Incognita; Gunpoint; collections of boxy rooms with samey heists that blur together; finding the exit and then deciding what to do next; 72 hours; the auto thump; a ever-rising security level; Metal Gear Acid; breaking your pal out of their cell; an entirely irrelevant plot; some colour in character bios; and generating a campaign where a ko'd enemy stays down for 100 turns.After all that, we take you through what some of the critics were saying about the game around the time it came out, and then we give you our final verdicts on whether Invisible, Inc. is a Pass, a Play, or an Espionage Explosion.For those who would like to play along at home, we'll be discussing, reviewing and dissecting Haunting Ground. on the next episode of Stealth Boom Boom.IMPORTANT LINKS TO THINGS
What do you do when you have a brand new handheld console coming out? You turn to a series that is synonymous with your home console. We're going back to late 2004 (or early 2005… or late 2005, depending on the region you're in) to look at a turn-based strategy spin-off. We're talking Metal Gear Acid (or Metal Gear Ac!d, however you're meant to pronounce that).On this episode of Stealth Boom Boom, we chat a little bit about importing a Japanese PSP as well as an American UMD, and a back of the box for the handheld's launch window. We also look at how acid dissolves metal, fashionable acid jazz, and Colm does his longest “how does this game play?” bit ever.Here are some of the things you're gonna hear us chat about in our review: Hitman Go; doing nothing, watching the enemy, and plotting a route; trying to figure out if a gun without a silencer is just as quiet as a gun that does have a silencer; hiding quite important things like how to view the map from an aerial view and how to shoot some weapons; chasing down a guard before the call goes through after he's spotted you; not enough places to hide and plenty of guards to kill; failure via randomisation (and just deck management, in general); mission-critical cards; Balatro; how cost changes who goes when; controlling Snake AND Teliko; stacking buffs; the power of the XM8; mystifying decisions around movement; a game of Ludo; a story that's nutty in a slightly different way to regular Metal Gear Solid, but told in a terribly boring way; a dramatic performance; music that's better than you expect; and the most peculiar in-game adverts. After all that, we take you through what some of the critics were saying about the game around the time it came out, and then we give you our final verdicts on whether Metal Gear Acid is a Pass, a Play, or an Espionage Explosion.For those who would like to play along at home, we'll be discussing, reviewing and dissecting Invisible, Inc. on the next episode of Stealth Boom Boom.IMPORTANT LINKS TO THINGS
Warmest of welcomes everybody. In this months Mooglecast; Max and Zac are once again reunited with Josh to continue through our premium classics catalog wishlists focusing on the Playstation Portable (PSP). This time around around the crew took a more focused look at some of the handhelds exclusives that flew under the radar for many folks. whilst gamers had fond memories of Dissidia Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Acid and GTA, many of us had no idea that games such as Chilli Con Carnage, Infected, Brandish and Dead Head Fred were even a part of the PSPs library of games. Of course we dive into what we've been playing and this months Trophy Talks Record is highlighting the Yakuza series. Finally for the Month of April we will be talking about some of our favourite boss fights from video games, but until then, be excellent to each other!
We're going back into the shadows and listening out for footsteps on tiled floors, as we revisit a series that all of us enjoyed back in season 1. We're going back 25 years to 2000 to look at a massively influential first-person stealth game. We're talking Thief II: The Metal Age.On this episode of Stealth Boom Boom, we chat a little bit about the architecture of Meet Joe Black, co-operative thieving, and crunching to hit the release date. We also look at a trailer that Eddie Vedder (and by extension John McEnroe) would be happy with, some of the hopes developer Looking Glass Studios had for the franchise, and the closure of the studio only months after launch.Here are some of the things you're gonna hear us chat about in our review: staying in the pitch black shadows and extinguishing flames with your water arrows; walking on carpet and shooting at tiled floors with your moss arrows; the Stealth Strepsil; the guards that never shut up; many different ways to move; new magic potions; the Scouting Orb and whether there's a need for it; the golden rule: get behind ‘em; a glitchy romance; cameras and big robots with faces; combat is punishment for being spotted; Dishonored; praise for quick save functionality; more objectives for higher difficulties; framing a lieutenant at the local police station; Kevin Keegan; a fondness for worldbuilding rather than plot; Blood Omen 2; sarky Garrett; religious texts; Karras as played by Droopy Dog; one of the best arguments; a UI that didn't please Josh; and a specific sound that pleases everyone.After all that, we take you through what some of the critics were saying about the game around the time it came out, and then we give you our final verdicts on whether Thief 2: The Metal Age is a Pass, a Play, or an Espionage Explosion.For those who would like to play along at home, we'll be discussing, reviewing and dissecting Metal Gear Acid on the next episode of Stealth Boom Boom.IMPORTANT LINKS TO THINGS
Last year we took a look at Metal Gear Acid 1 and I been thinking about this sequel since then. Here we have a game that fixes everything the first game and then some. We get a crazy art direction that's fitting of the title Acid. It shows how much fun a card battling strategy stealth game can really be. Come hear how we felt about this title. Starring Mike Albertin, Kerry, and Joseph Larrey.
We bring you something you probably didn't expect. A Metal Gear Episode but just any Metal Gear. We take a look at the forgotten PSP launch title Metal Gear Acid. A turn based strategy card game.

Hey Podtimists, I play Pot of Greed which allows me to draw two Limbs of Frasodia the Forbidden One from my deck! This also activates my Scrambled Eggs Gambit which in turn transforms by neutral land deck into a Seattle power card! Weep as my power only increases! Ahem.

This week on The Free Cheese, no fair, she drew more guns than me. We return to the launch of the PSP to check out how Konami diverted the Metal Gear Solid games and created something more suited for portability. Metal Gear Acid joins The List this week once we get over the fact that we move by cards, shoot by cards, and do everything else by cards.
When I watched I Finished A Video Game's 7+ hour Castlevania retrospective, I had to know how it was made. So I reached out to the creator, Matt, and invited him to the show.
