This week we dig into the latest from the studio Hazelight- Split Fiction. A delightfully cheesy, co-op adventure full of fun gameplay and eye-roll inducing dialogue (at least to Maddy) that honestly was still a ton of fun.

Thank you all for your patience as we get this next episode out to y'all! It will be a follow-up to last episode on the new game Life Is Strange: Double Exposure.
In the meantime, we know the wait (and the world) is a bit of a bummer, so here are some games we recommend based on your personal flavor of escapism:
Spiritfarer
Beautiful game with an emotionally devastating story about loss. 5/5 tears.
Fields of Mistria
Spoiler! This early access farming sim will actually be the game we discuss after we release the LiS: DE episode. Bridgette has sunk 16 hours in so far with no signs of stopping and claims it's the first game post-Stardew Valley to have the potential to rival it (Does Maddy agree?? Who knows, she hasn't installed it yet lol)
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
Maddy has been spending her time mindlessly shooting in the new COD. Highly recommend!
Honorary Mention: A Short Hike
We already played this game and even have an episode on it once you finish! It's super short but the vibes are so cozy.
This week we played the original Life is Strange as we get ready for the sequel, Life is Strange Double Exposure, to come out in a few weeks. The dialogue was definitely…something else but we had a great time playing this one.
