  • Sometimes, it's okay to give into nostalgia. Let the bitcrunched trumpets and adorable sprites take you back to your childhood, away to a world full of potential, one full of exciting people and wonder and amazing critters who you can love and travel with and villains who want to kill everyone but are still easily defeatable by fourteen year olds.

    In this ep, we speculate what happened to pokemon. Honestly, I'm not sure anything happened to it - I think that instead, something happened to us. I think we grew up, and the world grew up with us. There's no point wondering what's out beyond that horizon - we have maps, and wikis, and know there are exactly 1,025 pokemon but only 653 are in Pokemon Violet if you have all the DLCs. I don't think there's room for the antics of team rocket or team magma. I think we're all just out here, looking for a chance to feel the same way we did when we took our first steps out into that tall grass, not knowing what we were going to find.

    It's a lot to expect for a little game, but maybe, this one is enough for us.

    In this episode: I'M GOING TO WIN THE MOON THATS RIGHT OBAMA MY POKEMON IS SO CUTE I WON THE MOOOON, we are not pokemon experts, why does no one care what a temtem is, feather spends like ten minutes explaining pokemon contests, current lineups, catching raltz live, i heard u lik mudkipz, feeling old.

    In this episode: No Will, worse Portal, looking at things from a new angle, soup minute, infinity mirrors, domino doors, playing with expectations, sudden change in what the next game will be.

  • Jusant, a French word which translates to the English word "ebb" aka the movement of the tide out to sea. The ocean has receeded, bit by bit, until nothing was left but the Great Basin. And emerging from that basin, one valiant climber and their adorable little guy. Where are they going? Why are they going? What's even up there? Who knows! Find out with Karp, Will, and Gary as we travel up The Tower!

    in this episode: no feather, climbing buttons, a desert full of boats, the bestest little guy, gary's folly, an indominable sense of scale, a culture built on climbing, this game needs a photo mode, getting stuck, missing collectibles, its fuckin wimdy, it's a cover climber, ballasts, Will gets stuck, the final tower

  • GHOST TRICK MONTH, BABY. play it play it PLAY IT

    To cap this game off - and really bury it - we've brought on resident Ghost Trick expert Bluey (they/them)! The world is not ready for our combined powers, and Ghosts are everywhere and they won't stop Tricking! Things get wildly out of hand, disasters happen, people die, we travel through time, and also we talk about Ghost Trick!

    Editor's note: there's so much crosstalk in this one holy hell I edited out so much crosstalk but even then there's only so much you can do cuz sometimes you gotta leave it in for effect, and that was basically half the episode - so please enjoy five people speaking simultaneously all of the time.

    In this episode: the return of an infinite cities tradition, chicken dinner, , why this game didn't take off, it's really unbelievably good actually, blingee appreciation minute, failing to recap plot, chuck tingle, is this a Cabanela liker podcast, brain poisoning, we really hate curry head ok, confusing ourselves, podcasting too long.

  • It's always fun, following up on a game we've already done an episode about, and because we've already declared it The Month of Ghost Trick, Will and I are here to talk about the second-third of the game. Ghost trick is a game of puzzles, and ghosts, and tricks. We zoom around the screen and lament that we aren't using the original DS stylus to do so. We rewind time again and again and suffer through slow walk cycles and devestated justice ministers. We fight the oppresive nature of photo albums that don't quite reach our ghost grasp. And we learn some heavy shit. While we only get to Chapter 11, it felt like the natural stopping point after some Major Reveals (please ignore the fact that Will only finished Chapter 11 minutes before we started recording). We'll be back next week to cover the conclusion!

    in this episode: the continuation of ghost trick month, ds crunchiness, frustrating puzzling, chicken flippin, cabanella ick, improper execution, feather's incompetence, order of operations, big reveals

  • Have you ever been ghosted? tricked? bamboozled? Well get ready, cause this week we aren't talking about Ghost Trick after all! Karp is away, so Feather, Will and Gary decided to spend some time with an adorable little game jam game recommeded by our friend Sins. It's Updog!

  • Ghost trick was a commercial failure, or at least not enough of a commercial success to make Capcom happy. But I think they knew what they had - that's why they ported it eight times - including two separate Android ports. A large part has got to be that it's a lot weirder and harder to explain than it's more straightforward Pheonix Wright cousin, with strange spatial puzzle elements. Personally, I think they released it too early - if this had come out in 2020, gifs of it would have done numbers. Thankfully, just like our hero in the game, Ghost Trick keeps kicking from beyond the grave.

    Editor's note: the postpod is a bit gratuitious on this one, but I gotta spread the word of Samurai Cop.

    In this episode: thanks to everyone who joined us to help pick this game, the 2010s visual novel wave, S rank at climbing stairs, feather fails to explain "there's two police and they walk back and forth" for ten minutes, point and click adventure games, game tip: turn on "fast forward unread dialogue" and then good at tapping the "skip" button and it' just makes things slightly faster, Missile appreciation minute, what if Marge Simpson's head was just like that.

    The innkeeper lets you have some leftovers for breakfast after you wash yourself in the river.

    In the neighbouring village there's strong men who are willing to help you remove the fallen tree, and another town has bandit problems. A third town has undead problems.

    There's 10 days left of summer.

  • Your travels take you to a crossing.

    To the east, a narrow path cuts through tangled brush and snarling thorns.

    The road north is clear, but you heard rumor horrific goblins wait in ambush.

    The west is open plains - clear, but in the distance you can make out the most horrific animal of all: packs of terrifying beasts known as "horses".

    Better chance the goblins and the thorns.

    In this episode: horses, literal magic, encyclopedia games, we describe a lot of systems but really the game isn't that complicated, please tell me what I am doing wrong, being glarb, Mystik Dan, low fantasy, sight reading a TTRPG, you didn't hang out in the place that hurts you, parade of thing that hurt you, a fun announcement!

  • "Walking Sim" as a genre is a bit of a perjorative, but really - that's what we have here. You walk places, and things happen! That's the game. But even in that, there's a ton to talk about. Why is this game about being alone, so full of chatter? Can you find yourself in those dark woods? And perhaps most importantly, why is this walking sim so bad at walking?

    In this episode: flapjack, game of telephone, taking care of your knees, not a metroidvania, Lichenland, shoutout to the secret ending, superfire, QWOP.

  • Pow! Bang! Bop! This week we're FIGHTING! Or, well, we're talking about the potential of fighting, but really we're mostly commiserating about the state of Guilty Gear's story mode. Fighting games are hard and have a high barrier for entry, which is why we basically dance around the idea of it for an hour before throwing in the towel. If any sickos really wanna talk to Feather about fighting games though, you know where to find her.

    in this episode: lets rock, fighting games, feather blaming the beasts, divekick, training dojo, gary's glossary, subspace emissary, shoutouts to loading, feather and gary's wild ride, story mode problems, emotional cruft, discount paramore, rushdown characters, future sickos, roasting lunchables

  • Hello Daniel Mullins. I know you are reading this. You have fallen into my trap, the trap of episode descriptions. Here, you will.. uh... one second.

    I'm getting from my producer that I've done a fourth-wall-break ep description before? And it's, quote, "not nearly as fun the third time". Hmm.

    I'm sure that's not relevant to my favorite fantastically balanced horror roguelike deckbuilder set in a spooky cabin! I love that good ol' card game.

    What's that? Sorry, I'm hearing from my producer again...

    Spoiler warning: extended discussion of Inscryption spoilers from basically the top of the episode. Inscryption has a fair number of fun surprises, so if it seems like your kind of thing, it's recommended by three out of four Infinite Cities hosts!

    In this episode: yall enjoyed this? the onion is upside down, WILL YOU NEED TO THIN YOUR DECK MY GOD WILL PLEASE, something being bad on purpose is still bad and I know I read sweet bro and hella jeff, nailing my 95 theses of roguelike deckbuilders to the front door of slay the spire's spire, the inscription ARG, I do not care if the OLD_DATA is literally hitler, your first fourth wall break, shoutouts to Dr. Screw, really cool boss mechanics, weird Canada geometry, please be careful with the fourth wall indie devs keep breaking it and we're almost out of walls.

  • Thank you to everyone who joined us for Taco De Mayo 4ever after! If you missed it, we took a second run down King of the Castle, a very excellent stream / party / role-playing(?) game where one person (Feather) got to rule a kingdom with an iron throne while a bunch of wretched losers (Karp, Gary, Will, and friends) all tried to harsh her vibes and ruin her chance at wonderful tyranny.

    Anyway, it's a good game, and good games are what we do here! So we're sitting down to talk about it!

    In this episode: WOULD MY IDIOT NEPHEW PLEASE FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF, the chiefs of the north are up to it again (when are they not!), this episode is an act of hubris but it shall go unpunished because our listeners have a military score of two, this game would have exploded in 2020, unseen balance.
