For episode 49 we’re joined by Kate Gray of Official Nintendo Magazine, who tells us all about just how sweary Towerfall makes her, leading Tom to bring up the splendidly named Timmy Bibble’s Friendship Club. Meanwhile Tom has also been playing first person open world botany ‘em up Miasmata and Pip has been doing science (of a sort) in Mousecraft and explains how puzzle games make her really competitive.
