Video Game Vacation Destinations

2022-03-16

It’s spring break, party people, and we’re here to party it up by *checks notes* talking about video games and imagining what it would be like to go on actual vacations to fictional places! If you’ve listened with any regularity, you must surely realize now that we are sad people leading sad lives, so escape with us into fantastical landscapes as we do our best to find respite in the fantasy of beautiful seaside resorts, spacious castles, and sprawling metropolises. Virtually see the sights! Delusionally savor the flavors! Take in every Chocobo chirp and Bob-omb blast in these magical, completely made-up locations with us, and send us your fantasy video game vacation destinations, too! We’d love to read them on the show. We also plug a couple of timely itch.io bundles (links below), talk about what we’ve been playing, and more.
