Rick is joined by Bill Barber (The Gaming and Collecting Podcast; The 3DO Experience) to talk about the early 2000s JRPG Inuyasha: The Secret of the Cursed Mask! Licensed games can be a mixed bag, and this one is no exception; while the battle system is perfectly serviceable and the visuals are quite nice, the game itself feels like an elaborately done fanfiction.

“Well… I don’t believe in curses either, but to incur the grudge of a woman is a horrifying thing.”This week features the third essay on Pixel Project Radio, titled "The Thematic Elements of Catherine." Atlus released this cult hit in 2011, and it has always lived within the shadows of its much more successful and flashy siblings bearing the Persona name.
