Customer Reviews
The best games podcast around
The Short Game is the only game review media I consistently follow. Their genuine love of games as media and art and their consistent promotion of small indie games make them unique. The games world is full of the same boring articles and talks on the same boring big budget games. The short game is the total opposite. They’re not weighed down by corporate overlords or obsessed with content likes, they just love short games and talking about them. We are lucky to have this podcast.
Great Podcast!
Recently, I’ve been listening to this podcast a ton! Everyone is really nice and funny.
This isn’t an in-depth review, but I think you should find one episode that interests you and listen to it do decide if it’s a good fit for you.
