Episode 68: A Dark Room

In this week's episode of Press any Button, Nicky and Eric learn the importance of stockpiling bone spears in an episode all about A Dark Room. A Dark Room is an open-source text-based role-playing game. It was originally published for web browsers by Canadian indie studio Doublespeak Games on June 10, 2013. Later that year, it was released in the App Store for iOS devices. An Android version was released in 2016 and a Nintendo Switch version was released on April 12, 2019. Press Any Button hosts Nicky (a new gamer) and Eric (a lifetime gamer) are a married couple who both love video games. For every video game they will discuss its past (history of the game, developers story, and fun facts), present (game play, game review and strategy), and future (will there be a sequel?? A movie?)  BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE… Every game also comes with a challenge presented by the host that chose the game. If the challenge is not completed then whoever failed has to do a video game rap! So if you want to learn more about video games, hear some nerdy video game raps, or just have a good time this is the podcast for you. We try to cover all types of video games including: Retro and New video games Playstation, Nintendo, Xbox, Sega, and PC games Any and all genres including RPG, Simulation, Beat em up, platforming, mystery, first person shooter, sandbox, puzzle, action adventure, etc. Follow us on  Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/pressanybutton_podcast⁠⁠⁠ Credits: Nicky Smith Eric Luedtke Music by Mark Spurlock and Eric Luedtke References: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Dark_Room https://www.tumblr.com/interviewswithmakers/55486639138/michael-townsend-a-dark-room https://www.newyorker.com/tech/annals-of-technology/a-dark-room-the-best-selling-game-that-no-one-can-explain http://press.doublespeakgames.com/ https://www.gamesindustry.biz/a-dark-room-pulled-from-switch-eshop-for-including-code-editor
