He also gives quick takes on FBC Firebreak and Lost in Random: The Eternal Die.Brad compares two action-packed brawlers—Midnight Fight Express and Dead as Disco—before digging into strategy with a breakdown of Age of Wonders: Planetfall versus Age of Wonders 4 to determine which entry speaks to him most.Carrie finally got her hands on Mario Kart World and is returning to Pokémon Scarlet, now running much smoother thanks to the Switch 2.Then we dive into listener questions from the Post Office, talking albums that peak early, the creepiest video game villains, and why Gen Z gravitates toward sandbox experiences.
