This is the eighth episode of our Let's Play Fish! by Magnetic Scrolls podcast experiment!

In this episode: We ride the tube all around Hydropolis; actually get to an appointment on time; get hassled by rag week students; and fail to walk through an open door!

Most Monday evenings a few of us, friends and family, get together on a Zoom call to play Classic adventure games and we live stream it to YouTube. This is an audio-only edited version of that livestream, which cuts out most of the faffery and hopefully should allow more people to follow along and maybe even catch up so they can join us live and play along with us, making suggestions in the chat!

The game we're playing currently is Fish!, the fifth game from storied British games studio Magnetic Scrolls. FIsh! was designed by John Molloy, Phil South and Peter Kemp with contributions by Rob Steggles. It was released in 1988 by Rainbird Software and was declared the 16-bit Adventure Game of the Year at that year's Golden Joystick Awards.

We are playing the original Amiga version, albeit cracked by Quartex, using the WinUAE emulator.

Several Magnetic Scrolls games have been recently remastered and rereleased by Strand Games and are available on Android, iOS and Windows: ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.strandgames.com⁠⁠

Please let us know what you think of this episode and the series generally! We'd love to hear from you :)
