I'm recording *two* more episodes this week! One covering two games - both interactive novels involving a fall... The other featuring a very well known game involving a golden wedding proposal... Any guesses on what they may be?

"The Dagger of Amon Ra"... I played that for the first time about 30 years ago. It was interesting to cross daggers with someone who has only recently played it for the first time 😉

Want a clip of a future episode? If you said no, I'm going to disappoint you! Myself, @adventgamepod.bsky.social and @little-writer.bsky.social talk about The Dagger of Amon-Ra and I raise the question of whether it's the FFVIII of Sierra Games... Returning in 2026! #PointandClickAdventureGames

Talked my #albumsoftheyear & #tracksoftheyear with Jim #podcast @ichikoaoba.bsky.social @adwaithmusic.bsky.social @kathrynjoseph11.bsky.social @wolfalicefans.bsky.social @suedehq.bsky.social @mommaband.bsky.social @focuswales.bsky.social #bestof2025 www.godisinthetvzine.co.uk/2025/12/19/p...

I *loved* @collegefungames.mastodon.gamedev.place.ap.brid.gy's The Protagonish. They have a new game spoofing Les Miserables starting soon, and their kickstarter is due to start soon: www.kickstarter.com/projects/col...

Since this post was made, I've now recorded two episodes, and have two more scheduled to record. New episodes to come! Who/what games do you want the podcast to cover next? Let me know!

A reminder that the podcast - which *will* be back in 2026 - has a joint discord server with my other podcast @pickadisc.bsky.social! So why not join and say hello! Talk about what you are playing - or what music you're into!

"I'll just put a quick teaser together for #pointandclickmas" 5 hours later... 🎁 Here is your full line-up teaser! The Point and Clickmas giveaway kicks off tomorrow 12th Dec 11am GMT! How many do you think you can guess from their unique wrapping? 👇

My report from AdventureX, the UK's narrative gaming expo, is up! There's LOADS of chat with big adventure game creators on their NEW GAMES, including Charles Cecil, Dave Gilbert & Jon Ingold! And I do ask Charles if Broken Sword 3 will ever get remastered😄! youtu.be/uj6bECvOhcI

What this means, is that poor Villainy has to suffer me quoting Murray for hours.

Finished (got 2 out of 4 endings) of @duckmadeofwood.bsky.social's "D3AD HAND" and it's DLC "R3D STAR". I've not known a DLC be about six times larger than the original game, but with D3ad Hand you play as Yuri, a solider in the Russian army who is stationed in a bunker to monitor nuclear weapons.

Recorded the first episode in about half a year last night! New episodes in 2026 confirmed!

I've been musing about creating a Discord for Ask Us About Loom, because the Internet needs another discord server. But inspired by the Save Your Game/Mutant Menace joint server I've just extended the @pickadisc.bsky.social one to have channels for the podcast! Link in t'linkree in t'bio!

If you have an album you could speak for 60-90 seconds of, please feel free to DM me or email me at [email protected] for more information!

Potentially related to that post about the recordings I'm doing - anyone have thoughts on The Dig and/or The Dagger of Amon Ra? Like/Dislike?

My award-winning comedy scifi #pointandclick #indiegame "Captain Disaster in: Death Has A Million Stomping Boots" is currently 70% off! captaind.itch.io/captain-disa...

A little bit from the other podcast I did...

Hey - who is recording TWO episodes of the podcast this week? This guy! *points thumbs at self* I mean, it'd be a bit weird if I wasn't involved. Might be an improvement to the podcast, but weird.

I didn't get chance to play this at AdventureX, but played it this weekend and really enjoyed D3AD HAND. Now to start R3D STAR!

Enjoyed playing this at AdventureX last week - looking forward to diving in!

It's official, Behind the Hydra's Eyes is out now on Steam 🤯 For £4.99, you too can experience the joys of British office work. Answer emails, make tea, and avoid thinking about the building sense of dread! store.steampowered.com/app/3554030/... #indiegames #godot #narrative #pixelart #steam

Purchased the reforged edition of Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars today. Haven't played it in decades. Immediately discovered where me often quoting "and don't cross the road until the little man shows green" comes from here.

🎉 AdventureX is back! youtu.be/7Ujm4xkjLbM @adventurex.bsky.social #AdvX25 Featuring @lightfootbrosgames.bsky.social @duckmadeofwood.bsky.social @torreznoenter.bsky.social @daedalic.bsky.social @jabbage.bsky.social

Not only is today Thanksgiving, it’s exactly 8 months since Rosewater launched! I’d be very thankful if you picked up a copy or left a review: store.steampowered.com/app/1226670/...

I have now clocked over 200 hours on Balatro. I've only had it a good four/five months. My previous Steam playtime record was 60-ish hours for Final Fantasy VIII. It's not an addiction, honest.

Want to read about my experiences at AdventureX 2025? Here's Episode Two of my own adventures at this narrative game convention: Listen to those voice actors (and also some extra devs)!

And the fourth episode was a crossover with @reddwarfpod.bsky.social as I was joined by Red Dwarf and Simon The Sorceror fan Ashley Day to talk about whiny British Teenagers in silly hats voiced by Chris Barrie! pod.link/1641529105/e...

Seoirse Dunbar from @adventgamepod.bsky.social and I talked about The Colonel's Bequest for episode 3, and surprised ourselves by how we figured it may have been way ahead of it's time in it's ambition... pod.link/1641529105/e...
