from Video Game Book Club · host Buenale Games

Welcome to the first episode of The Checkpoint, it's the show between our show. In this first episode, Ben and I discuss our progress of the Video Game Book Club game of the month - Small Saga. We give our first impressions of the game as well as a tragic story from JP. Next, we discuss two different games we've been playing, Blue Prince and Crypt Custodian. One is a hardcore puzzle game with roguelike mechanics, the other a not so hardcore metroidvania that stars a recently deceased cat named Pluto. We hope you enjoy a bit more of our yapping in this inaugural episode of The Checkpoint.
