111: Gamer Stank

The only thing that didn't stink is, surprisingly enough, that cheesy-looking game Anna fell in love with

The popular perception of gamers

Do gamers stink differently than other people? Some people seem to think so and [cue infomercial voice] have they got the product for YOU!

But before we get to all that, Jessica recounts some woes with a new game’s tutorial and an old game’s inability to cloud save her progress, oh no!

Meanwhile, Anna falls under the spell of a very silly, but very charming time management game and we also talk about a story that made us both do a double take.

Please rate and review us on iTunes, follow us on Twitter (and follow Jessica and Anna too), like us on Facebook, buy our merch, and email us if you’ve spent millions on a mobile game, because we’d like to be your friends ;-)
