This time, Tom shares his adventures in Mexico, and Julie has tales to tell from Greece. Then, we kick of our discussion of video games that feel like board games with Eric's obsession with Blue Prince, before moving on to a bunch of other electronic games, including some that have made the leap to boardgames. We open up the mailbag for a question and Tale of Horror, and break down our Roses, Thorns, and Hula Hoops. 00:57 - Following the Script 01:21 - Announcements: Dice Tower Cruise and East 02:24 - Tom in Mexico 06:27 - Julie in Greece 06:48 - Video Games that Feel Like Board Games 08:05 - Blue Prince 10:42 - Slay the Spire 11:24 - Balatro 16:22 - PS Remote Play 19:26 - Final Fantasy Tactics 21:26 - Citizen Sleeper 22:21 - Sunderfolk 23:35 - Jackbox 24:57 - Telltale Games 26:24 - Making the Jump to Board Games 36:25 - Question/Tale of Boardgaming Horror 44:28 - We Love Cats 46:41 - Ito 49:55 - Donald Duck in Happy Camper 54:51 - The Morrison Game Factory 58:20 - Lynx 59:43 - Camino a Xibabla Questions?

The Wolf Among Us 2 gehört zu den Projekten, die man inzwischen ohne schlechtes Gewissen als Vaporware klassifizieren kann. Ursprünglich 2017 angekündigt, anschließend 2018 gecancelled, 2019 wieder neugestartet und inzwischen auf unbestimmte Zeit verschoben - hängt das Projekt seit nun beinahe 10 Jahren in der Entwicklungshölle. Ob das Game jemals das Licht der Welt erblickt, wie es zu dieser Katastrophe überhaupt kommen konnte und was hinter den Kulissen von Telltale Games über all die Jahre abgelaufen ist, beleuchte ich heute in dieser ausführlichen Dokumentation.

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we begin a new series of series on the independent games of the last couple of decades, starting with 2012's Fez. We set the game in its time, talk a bit about its precedents and the landscape of independent games in the middle of that console generation. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Single-digit cubes Issues covered: our real plan or lack thereof, early games, the indie revolution, the influences back and forth, the pressure of the space we're in, a highly visible indie, games from that year, sequels vs the different stuff in the indies, democratization of the market, the console cycle, always online fiasco, getting on the Steam store, opening console store fronts to independents, limitations, the broadband market and bandwidth costs, the publicity on the store, low cost of goods, continuing power of retail, a two dimensional puzzle game in a three dimensional world, charm, great music and MIDI with an unsettling feel, rotating the world, rebooting the game, achieving the effect without perspective, the Trixel engine, having a hard time getting it, trusting the game, having a new lens on a game, taking the time to infuse the whole experience, team sizes, telling a different story with an existing language, having fewer people to get on board, independent publishers and producers, influences, glitch aesthetics, map language, climbing on the sides of things, stopping time while the world rotates, how the editor might work, games from the past, CONFIG.SYS (dang it, could not remember), skipping over generations.

Nach dem Ende von Telltale Games entstand Dramatic Labs, und deren Debüt war 2023 direkt eine große Lizenz: Star Trek Resurgence. Aber es ist nicht einfach nur ein Aufguss der Telltale-Formel, sondern eine Weiterführung, und vor allem ist es kein episodisches Spiel mehr. Aus der Perspektive von zwei Hauptfiguren versuchen wir, einen Konflikt zwischen Planeten aufzulösen, doch dann zeigt sich, dass eine Bedrohung dahinterliegt, die dem ganzen Quadranten gefährlich werden kann.

On this episode of Random Encounter, we're chatting about some of video game history's most prolific anthropomorphic animal crimefighters! First up, Jono binge-plays the brand-new remaster of the third season of Telltale Games' Sam & Max series: The Devil's Playhouse. Lovingly remastered by Skunkape Games, does this remaster bring the 2010 point-and-click up to speed? Or is it left as roadkill on the highway of history? Then, Hilary chats about the recent demo of the eagerly awaited revival of the Mana series: Visions of Mana. Coming out on August 29th, does this demo deliver that classic Mana taste?    Finally, Abe teams up with the turtles-in-a-half-shell to rescue Master Splinter in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Spintered Fate. Rather than the tried-and-true, beat-em-up genre, Splintered Fate pulls its inspiration from Hades. And boy, it pulls a LOT of inspiration! Is this Hades-like worth playing, or is it better left in the sewers?

fWotD Episode 2620: Tales of Monkey Island Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Sunday, 7 July 2024 is Tales of Monkey Island.Tales of Monkey Island is a 2009 graphic adventure video game developed by Telltale Games under license from LucasArts. It is the fifth game in the Monkey Island series, released nearly a decade after the previous installment, Escape from Monkey Island. Developed for Windows and the Wii console, the game was released in five episodic segments, between July and December 2009. In contrast to Telltale's previous episodic adventure games, whose chapters told discrete stories, each chapter of Tales of Monkey Island is part of an ongoing narrative. The game was digitally distributed through WiiWare and Telltale's own website, and later through Steam and Amazon.com. Ports for OS X, the PlayStation Network, and iOS were released several months after the series ended.Players assume the role of pirate Guybrush Threepwood, who—while attempting to destroy his nemesis, the undead pirate LeChuck—accidentally releases a voodoo pox across the Gulf of Melange. With the assistance of his wife, Elaine Marley–Threepwood, Guybrush seeks out a cure. The game was conceived in late 2008, due to renewed interest in adventure game development within LucasArts. It was developed concurrently with LucasArts' special edition of the 1990 game The Secret of Monkey Island; LucasArts oversaw production of Tales of Monkey Island, and ensured that it matched the remake in certain areas, such as art direction. Production began in early 2009; franchise creator Ron Gilbert was involved in project planning, while development was led by Dave Grossman, who co-designed the first two Monkey Island games. The game's music was composed by Michael Land, and the core cast of The Curse of Monkey Island reprised their voice roles.Tales of Monkey Island received generally positive reviews. Critics praised the game's story, writing, humor, voice acting and characterization; 1UP.com described Guybrush as Telltale's strongest and most expressive character yet. The game's music and graphics were also lauded. Complaints focused primarily on the perceived erratic quality of the game's puzzle design, a weak supporting cast in the early chapters, and the game's control system. Tales of Monkey Island garnered several industry awards, and was Telltale's most commercially successful project until Back to the Future: The Game.A sixth entry in the franchise, Return to Monkey Island by publisher Devolver Digital, Lucasfilm Games and Terrible Toybox, was released on September 19, 2022.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:32 UTC on Sunday, 7 July 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Tales of Monkey Island on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Matthew.

Nintendo and Microsoft both had rock-solid presentations during this faux-E3 time of year, and it has some PlayStation fans on their back foot. Why does it seem like Sony is dragging its feet when its competitors are going full steam ahead? Isn't there anything to say? And while many (including some of us on this show) make the argument that its lack of communication doesn't particularly matter in the long run -- PlayStation 5 is doing great as-is -- the consternation is nonetheless growing in the vacuum of silence. Plus: Dragon Quest III HD-2D and a Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Collection are both en route to PS5, as is Hironobu Sakaguchi's Fantasian, while the seventh China Hero Game, Evotinction, is slated for release later this year, Shovel Knight prepares his triumphant return, Bluepoint reconfirms it's working on an original title, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Did developer Game Science really get shaken-down for $7 million by a DEI consultancy? Will Hollow Knight: Silksong ever actually come out, or is it a myth? Whatever happened to the reconstituted Telltale Games? Has Colin gained full royal status, complete with new honorary titles?

In this episode, Jr. discusses the unique approach to storytelling that made Telltale Games a prominent video game developer, with games like The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us. However, the company faced financial difficulties due to taking on too many games at once and not diversifying their offerings. Jr. also shares his personal experience playing these games and his thoughts on the company's downfall. He ends the episode with a why question for the company: why did they go beyond their capacity and not diversify their game offerings?

Stephan is the director of The Expanse: A Telltale Series, as well as playing the likes of Tor and Anderson Dawes in the co-developed Deck Nine title. But... before our wonderful StrangeCast interview with Frost, Adnan and Adam discuss two news pieces first. The StrangeCast hosts discuss the news that Don't Nod and Focus Entertainment have pushed back the release date of Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden into 2024. Our other news piece is focused on none other than Life Is Strange: Forget-Me-Not, specifically a trailer that was dropped for the Titan Comics and Square Enix collaboration. In our in-depth chat with Frost, The Expanse director opened up on Deck Nine's work on the Telltale Games-published title, as well as working with Life Is Strange: True Colors star Erika Mori and Camina Drummer herself, Cara Gee! We also find out more about Frost's experience in the industry and how he ended up working at Deck Nine, while The Expanse director also teased what we can expect from the Archangel bonus episode.

Player 1 vs The World's​ ​StrangeCast is back, and Adnan and Adam are talking all things Don't Nod Entertainment, Deck Nine, Square Enix, Life Is Strange and much more! Adnan and Adam kick things off by turning their attention towards Don't Nod Montreal after a social media post from studio executive producer Luc Baghadoust. Luc confirmed that veteran Life Is Strange VO director Philip Bache has linked up with him and Michel Koch for Montreal's unannounced title. Speaking of Michel, the Life Is Strange 1 and 2 co-director shared his thoughts on fan-favourite character Kate Marsh and what might have happened to her in the aftermath of one particular ending. We have even more Don't Nod news to cover, with the French developer revealing the second third-party title it is publishing: Koira. A hand-drawn musical adventure title, Koira is developed by Belgium-based developer Studio Tolima. The StrangeCast hosts close out our news segment by looking back on Life Is Strange 2 Episode 4: Faith on its fourth anniversary. Our main topic is none other than our continued review segments for Telltale Games and Deck Nine's The Expanse, with Adnan and Adam sharing their verdicts on Episode 2: Hunting Grounds.

Hello there everybody! Welcome back to another episode of your favorite bi-weekly trophy hunting show! On this week's episode the gang is back down to it's core three member show and has a lot to catch up on. Darryl has been hitting the gym regularly and is feeling nice and beefed up, ready to regale us all with tales of TMNT Mutant Mayhem, as well as a trophy list review for a musical RPG in the same style as older Telltale Games. That's right, he's talking about Stray Gods! Slugger meanwhile brings forth Remnant 2 for discussion, and the crew is generally very impressed with how straightforward the trophy list seems. Colin rounds out the trophy list reviews with Quake 2, another surprise release from Quakecon 2023. But does this game's trophy list hold up when compared to the original remaster? Well in short, no. The trophy list is bland and simple, devoid of most creativity. That doesn't mean that Colin won't be picking it up and playing it though, as his obsession with boomer shooters continues to grow. On top of all that the team discusses what games we would want to trophy hunt in first if for some reason we had to start all over, and what we would want PSNP and Discord to do to help show off more of our favorite series and Platinum's. Thank you to all the Patreon supporters of the show, and thank you all so much for listening!

This week's film review focusses on a story made with building blocks and without voice acting... and yet, what a spectacular story! The game world is Minecraft of course, and the story is based on Telltale Games' episodic release called Story Mode. Made by @SquaredMediaAnimations, we discuss the production values emcompassed within the film, why we think adding voice acting would have enhanced the film and a number of other things we nit-picked but conclude that its really no wonder Squared Media are one of the top machinima producers in Minecraft. 0:38 Background and intro to the film 10:27 It takes a great amount of skill to tell a story without any character but is it just cliches and no depth? 12:03 The advantages of not putting dialogue in a specific language is that everyone is on the same playing field. 14:10 It's a trope sandwich. 16:32 Soundscape and sound. 19:54 The problem of doing a silent film and the need for characters with expressiveness: the limitation of the medium.21:48 Adding credits to the credits. Credits -Speakers: Phil Rice, Ricky Grove, Tracy Harwood, Damien ValentineProducer: Phil RiceEditor: Damien ValentineMusic: Arp Solinas

Years after the fantastic The Expanse series has ended we head back out to the belt to see what the revived Telltale Games has for us with The Expanse game. Focusing in on Drummer and a crew of scavengers is this game enticing enough to get fans of the show or new comers to follow along?

​Player 1 vs The World's StrangeCast is edging closer to our milestone 50th episode! But more on that for another time, as Adnan and Adam return for an all-new episode to talk about all things Don't Nod Entertainment, Deck Nine, Square Enix and Life Is Strange. For this episode of StrangeCast, Adnan and Adam cover the latest patch being rolled out for the Life Is Strange Remastered Collection. Don't Nod's Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden finally has a release date for console and PC, while the French developer has also been named a 'key player' in a certain area of the gaming market. The StrangeCast hosts celebrate Bird Island's Gerda: A Flame in Winter for winning 'Best Narrative Game' at G4C Awards. Finally, our last news piece is all about Deck Nine and Telltale Games' The Expanse, with the achievements/trophies confirmed and also the bonus episode revealed for the title. Our main topic involves our regular StrangeCast listener Alex Thayer (AKA Dreamwalker/Dreamprism), who shares with Adnan and Adam the full details behind the Life Is Strange community fan event 'Six Years After.' StrangeCast can be accessed on the following podcast services (among many others!) below.

New episode out now! We played The Wolf Among Us from Telltale Games, a kind of choose-your-own-adventure video game where you solve a mystery set in a twisted underground world filled with characters from fairy tales, myths, and more. We discuss our strategies in making decisions, debate the moral and ethical values of our choices, and ultimately discover how those choices affected the kind of sheriff Bigby Wolf became. We talk about how the familiar characters were interpreted, discuss how poverty and corruption leads to desperate decisions, debate how cruel the villain ended up being, and love the art style and detailed design. We also reveal that ultimately we only cared about TJ, aka Toad Jr., and were more OK with murdering people than with disappointing him. Katy lived a meme in real life, Carrie felt constantly guilty being mean, Maddy gets shocked by a Cinderella translation, and Mack gives a sneak peek into future podcast possibilities. We get into the super dark original versions of fairy tales, talk about the differences between the game and the comics, were unnerved by some of the game prompts, and learn that we have all tried to find a playable online version of Barbie Detective without success. We also cover a new Untitled Goose Game pitch, getting surprised by nudity, the weird mix of character inspirations, and humidity. Give it a listen! And #JusticeForTJ TW: Exploitation and murder of sex workers, political corruption, torture, gore, dark original versions of fairy tales, rape Show Notes: The YouTube video Katy mentioned was “THIS ENDING IS CRAZY Wolf Among Us Episode 1” from RDCWorld Gaming, linked here. The reaction she was talking about starts at 1:51:20.

So much good news! Telltale Games is making a game based on The Expanse! Season 2 trailer for Good Omens!Humble Bundle has Mercedes Lackey books. And we think it should stop being humble and admit it's awesome! Plus we check in on Fourth Wing. Turns out more people like it than you think.

Welcome to Xbox Game Passengers. After a bit of a much-needed break from the show, we're excited to be back with a brand-new episode. Derek and Dougie jumped into As Dusk Falls hoping to relive the Telltale Games there-are-no-good-choices glory days (well, at least Derek was) with As Dusk Falls. How did things turn out? Listen on to find out! Now, we hope to be back very soon with regular episodes, but we don't quite know what that looks like yet. You'll hear it in the show itself, but Derek has been having a hard time enjoying games at all as of late (hence the long break), and being forced to play some potentially bad games doesn't seem like the best way to overcome that. There are plenty of things that he's missed (and plenty of those things on Xbox Game Pass), so he's going to focus on playing some titles that are hopefully enjoyable, and craft some episodes from there! As Dusk Falls is an original interactive drama from INTERIOR/NIGHT that explores the entangled lives of two families across thirty years. Starting in 1998 with a robbery-gone-wrong in small town Arizona, the choices you make have a powerful impact on the characters' lives in this uncompromising story of betrayal, sacrifice and resilience.  Replay the story again and again to uncover vastly different outcomes for the characters and explore hidden nuances behind every decision. Will your characters survive unscathed? What kind of people will they ultimately become?
