Hello to all our awesome Gods and Goddesses of War out there in Podcastland! June was our grand season finale for Season 3 of our Game-of-the-Month podcast. And what grander way to end the season than to play the 2018 Game-of-the-Year, God of War!

Some of us had a great time playing this one, while one of us … eh, not so much. Listen in to see what we loved and what we hated about this enormous, beautiful, maddening title. 

If you played along with us, add your comments below or join the discussion over on the LRG Facebook page.  

As always, there are loads of SPOILERS in our podcast! So if you haven’t played God of War yet, go give it a good playthrough, and then come back and give our podcast a listen. Happy gaming!

Hi, friends! Welcome to our end-of-the-year season finale where we chat about some of the games that we’ve been playing that we DIDN’T feature in our regular Game-of-the-Month Club. We cover a lot of ground in this one, so give it a listen to find out who’s been trying to sell meat from the graveyard, who’s been relaxing with hidden-object games, who’s been hunting monsters all over the planet, who’s been selling matches in idle clickers, and who thinks our governments should be run by video game simulations!

Make sure you stick around to the end for some BIG announcements about our new Patreon page and Discord channel!

September has come and gone like a quirky caravan of exiles drifting across a brilliantly colored backdrop. For the September episode of our Game of the Month Club podcast, we played Pyre from Supergiant Games. Olivia picked this one-of-a-kind “action role-playing sports video game.” Listen in to find out who loved the fast-paced sports aspect of the game, who couldn’t stop talking about the original story setting and artwork, and who had to get their blood pressure checked from all the pyre-scorching, orb-running action.

As always, THERE ARE TONS OF SPOILERS IN THIS PODCAST! So if you haven’t played Pyre yet, give a try, then come back and give us a listen. And make sure to add your comments below to keep the conversation going!
