Too many spiky things perhaps.More world records for our friends Charlie Far (David) and Pete Hahn (former GG gamer of the year)

Weeeeeee’re back! With a bumper podcast reviewing not one, not two, but, oh – actually 2 games. One in a top secret hotel and the other billions of light years away in a massive garden. Probably.
We’ve both been super busy and missed all our lovely listeners, but rest assured 2018 will be arcadtabulous.

Shaun & Victor agree on arcade games being awesome but come to actual blows on this show’s featured game. Oh dear. Bruises before bedtime. Hopefully the guesty mc guest face co host Vipp can get in the middle and stop them hitting each other with their fetching handbags. Shaun’s has bullets embroidered into it and Victor’s has a ‘Harrumph!’ sticker on it.

We reminisce the Revival retro Event while banging on about arcade games and biscuits. Ah, the love of twiddling a biscuit’s joystick and dunking an arcade cabinet in a mug of tea…
Beware of stuff falling out of Shaun’s head…
Victor makes wrong words during a quiz. Sounds legit?

The game? You play a little kid on a trike, peddaling around a bendy maze collecting flowers to give to a little friend on a bonus screen. Knock baddies off the road with the bendy barriers in the maze. The name of it – oh, SPATTER, obviously. Huh?
Too cute for words and obviously made by the creators of Flicky (see podcast 54)
