We had a whole lot to say about this exciting game for April. Robbie picked Ape Escape 2 by Sony Computer Entertainment and it made us go bananas! In this episode, we discuss games that are fun for the sake of it, nostalgia for games some of us played as kids, the ways Ape Escape attempted to innovate with the Dualshock controls, and more!

If you played along with us, or have awesome memories of playing Ape Escape back in the day, add your comments here or join the discussion over on the LRG Facebook page. And for early access to GOTM episodes, exclusive polls, and hilarious outtakes, be sure to check us out over on Patreon.

Good news is, we were mostly spoiler-free (for once)! But if you haven’t played the game yet, we still encourage you to give it a try before you listen in.

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!
