247: Kyoto Craftsmanship

May 7, 2026 · 2 h 7 min

Show notes

The April downpour of games continues into May as we dig into Forbidden Solitaire, Windrose, and Dead as Disco, plus more Saros and Retro Rewind (and one last time with Pragmata). Also, is there going to be a new Mortal Kombat? How many Street Fighter tattoos are there in the world? Reggie Fils-Aime said what about Amazon? How do you hide a secret track on a record? These questions and many more, pondered!
