Show Notes:
He’s baaaaack! In this episode of Third Player Games Podcast, Josh and Amy welcome Jeffers back from his short vacation (after shoving the broken china to the back of the cabinets and tossing the empty beer cans into their neighbor’s garbage… party? What party?). Jeffers, glad to see that their figurative house is still standing, gets back to business as usual! This is a news-heavy episode and the gang dives deep into many of the announcements that broke this past week. Nintendo Direct, Ninja controversy, Life is Strange 2, Spyro the Dragon, A Hat in Time, and much more! Top it all off with a review of the new indie game, Evergarden. Thanks for joining us for our 38th episode and on this crazy adventure!
