  • #47 Small Saga
    Dec 3 2024

    It may be a smaller title but just like its main character Verm, Small Saga packs a punch.


    The setting of a rodent medieval kingdom under the streets of modern day London is genius and feels unique. If you have Small Saga on your 'to play' list, make sure you bump it up and play it now.


    If you have played the game, I would love to know what you think. If you're listening on Spotify, let me know in the comments below, if you're listing elsewhere, let me know on social media.

    If you’re in the mood to listen to more content about a turn-based RPG, check out episode 36 of the podcast about Paper Mario and The Thousand Year Door.

  • #45 Pokémon White
    Nov 17 2024

    Today we are exploring the Unova region in our quest to become the very best, like no one ever was, in Game Freak and the Pokémon Company’s Pokémon White.


    If you are a regular listener to the podcast, you will know that I recently reviewed Pokémon Scarlet, crowning it as my personal ‘best Pokémon game ever’. After posting my Quick Review of the game to Youtube, I got a lot of push back from Pokémon, how should we say. . . enthusiasts, saying that Pokémon White was a better game because it has a better story.

    So is Pokémon White really better than Pokémon Scarlet or is it just nostalgia talking, let's find out in this week's episode.


    If you'd like more Pokémon content, check out episode 38 of the podcast about Pokémon Scarlet or episode 44 about Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket.

  • #43 Astro Bot
    Sep 29 2024

    Today we are blasting off with Team Asobi’s highly rated, mascot 3D platformer; Astro Bot.

    When beating the demo for Astro’s Playroom I remember thinking to myself ‘this guy needs his own game’. Four years later he got it, but is the game really that good? How much does Sony nostalgia play into its success and is it a worthy rival to Super Mario? Let's find out on this week's episode.

    Sep 8 2024

    Is The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age the best LOTR games you have never played? Yes I think so!


    But what is The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age? Why is it not remembered as fondly as the other two licensed LOTR games of the time, and is it worth going back and playing 20 years after its release? Let’s find out in this week’s episode of the Beat Your Backlog Podcast.
