It's been a long time since we've spent an entire episode talking about one game but it's been a long time since one game has grabbed our attention to such an extent. The new indie puzzle game BLUE PRINCE seemingly came out of nowhere (to us, at least) but man oh man is it good. We're fairly vague in our chat but we do talk about a couple of little details here and there (with a bit of warning when we get to them) so if you want to go in completely fresh, maybe hold off a bit before listening.
