394: The Forever Labyrinth

When inkle drops a surprise release, we dive in — and this time, we dove into a maze of art from museums around the world. The Forever Labyrinth is a totally free, browser-based “replayable narrative rogue-like adventure” made in collaboration with Google Arts & Culture. In addition to reviewing the game, we took this as an excuse to talk about our favorite museum-going experiences and our feelings about corporate-sponsored games. (Encarta may also come up.) Expect each run to take about twenty minutes, with multiple trips through to uncover more secrets. (00:00) - Introduction (01:02:35) - What’s Making Us Happy This Week?
