In this week’s episode, we take a roadtrip through somewhere in Northern Europe in Northbound, a narrative game by Johannes Köberle and Arno Justus. It’s a play on the walking simulator, although Jordan doesn’t even realize you can, um, walk. We talk about the ways that this game succeeds at simulating the feeling of being on a roadtrip, and a minor side-plot prompts some reminiscing about childhood pranks.
