MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Kelsey Lewin, Haley MacLean, and Janet Garcia celebrate MinnMax's 6th anniversary by unleashing their thoughts on Pokémon Legends: Z-A from Game Freak and lamenting on how you can squint to see an awesome game somewhere in this mix. Then Kyle Hilliard joins the show to talk about Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted before we dive into a spoiler-free conversation about Double Fine's beautiful game starring a lighthouse called Keeper. Then Game Informer's Charles Harte joins the show as we unpack Dispatch from AdHoc Studio, an amazingly written successor to the Telltale formula starring Alanah Pearce from MinnMax Guest Cohort fame! For community questions this week we're joined by generous Give To The Max donor Tri Nguyen to talk about his career as a combat designer on Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and Marvel's Wolverine AND answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week!
