Madelyn’s Games

Madelyn is becoming a mobile gamer now that she’s hit a new decade. She played Bejeweled on a plane, and then she also got really into 2048 several years too late. She also played a little more Dispatch, a little more Katamari, and a little more UFO 50. Minigames are the future. Finally, she passed off the controller with Emma on Baby Steps where we got stuck in one spot for hours.

Emma’s Games

Emma made a valiant December catch-up effort, but it was mostly unsuccessful. Still, there are a lot of games to talk about from Million Depth to Skate Story to Promise Mascot Agency. She also rolled credits on Trails into Reverie (although there’s still post-game) and on Final Fantasy Tactics. There are a few more small games that can be heard about on the episode too.

Enjoy the episode! Tell us what you think in the comments or on social media. Make sure to check out last week’s episode and look forward to next week’s where we’re talking about all of 2025 in games.
