Moises Taveras returns alongside first-time guest Sam Greszes as we talk about 9S, the reveals of his hacking abilities, and wonder what the **** those asterisks are. Enjoy the show!

Nier Automata, Episode 11: Omnes Una Manet No[x]

Remember how we said Nier Replicant had a new ending added to it? We decided to save it for the last. Well, almost. We still have the external media episode after this. Michael Higham returns for the final gameplay episode of our Nier season in which we go back and play Replicant's Ending E, discuss how it connects both Nier games in new surprising ways, and lament once again that we didn't get to play as Kaine before. Enjoy the show!

Nier Replicant, Episode 14: Memor[y] feat. Michael Higham

I set out on the valiant quest to create the perfect RPG!

Episode 1 - The Perfect Roleplaying Game

This episode dives into the world of tabletop gaming with Mark Azzam, founder of Back to Games and Boardgame Space, and the creative mind behind tabletop.me, the UAE’s first convention dedicated to board and card gaming.
After 18 years as an airline pilot, Mark traded the skies for the tabletop, helping shape an entirely new gaming culture in the UAE. We talk about how this community grew from a single store into a regional movement, why tabletop gaming is seeing a resurgence alongside digital games, and how it’s inspiring creativity, collaboration, and connection across generations
