Exploring 'The Stolen Dream' and Whale Punk Aesthetics

In this week's episode of The Game Informer Show, we rave about Donkey Kong Bananza on Switch 2, which shines on the new Nintendo console, and the complicated Pac-Man Metroidvania called Shadow Labyrinth. We also recommend a great new stealth game, Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream, praising it for its gorgeous art direction and brilliant final act. Finally, Charles rounds out the podcast episode, briefly chatting about the Bravely Default HD remaster and a house-decorating Picross-like puzzler called Squeakcross.
