Description

This week, we cover Early Access game Crypt of the NecroDancer. This bizarre (yet incredibly smooth) blend of the Rogue-like genre with the the rhythm game genre had us swinging our swords to the beat. This is one of our favorite episodes yet.

Returning from our well-received iOS games episode, Laura Nash is here to share her opinions with regular hosts Raygan & Shane, and generally make the show less bad.

As befits a rhythm game, this episode features more music than any previous episode! Enjoy!

Availability

Crypt of the NecroDancer is available exclusively through Steam Early Access. – $14.99
