One last PartyCast for the year goes down as we reflect on the past dozen months and review a dozen games!
The show kicks off with Pernell Vaughan, Chris Taylor, Aki, Grant Henry, Tim Ekkebus, and Adam Stark all on hand to hang out and chat about some of our gaming highlights over the past year. From the heavy hitters like Clair Obscur: Expedition 233 and Donkey Kong Bananza, we nail some of the biggest bright spots video games over 2025. We cover smaller games like Clover Pit and BallxPit and we also give away a few copies of She’s Leaving courtesy Perp Games! All that plus another batch of reviews including the Switch 2 version of UBISOFT’s Assassin’s Creed Shadows, some clips from Andy Sperry, and a Horror Acolyte appearance!
