Show notes

This week Andrew and Ben have a word inspired by our 2nd (insert air horn sound) review code (and for the PS5 no less)! But first… a little bit of housekeeping featuring the one and only star of a single “The Three Stooges” episode, the "magic” 8-ball. As you know, the gentlemen are fond of complicated math, so prepare for that AND a long definition segment. Other topic diversions include: self help books, Ironwood Studios’ first release “Pacific Drive,” beverages, Juice Newton, superhero movies, French food, Ben’s review of Juicy Realm,” and 2VP merch ideas.

Ben’s Review of Juicy Realm 3 UPs:- 2 player local Co-op - Amazingly goofy Sunday funny paper cartoon graphics with a wide variety of creative weapons- After clearing the game the first time, difficulty modifiers are added so you can accumulate more seeds when you clear a biome, but it is entirely optional.

3 DOWNs:- No Option for online co-op gameplay- Some minor UI anomalies do exist that make weapon modifier selection difficult at times- Not balanced as much as I would have hoped… there is one character selection that is clearly superior and a number of weapons that are the most effective

DO BUY/PLAY… If you want a thrifty purchase with an arcade-like feel, but with the some of the variation, depth, and replay value of a rouge lite! If you like games similar to Hades and Cult of the Lamb, you may want to check it out. Even at full price, it’s a steal!
