Off the Shelf is an interview format where we bring a guest on the show to talk about the following scenario: “Imagine you have a library full of books that represent to you the greatest video game narratives. If I were to pull 5 books at random off of those shelves, what would I find? How did each book earn a spot on your shelf?”
This week, I had the honor of interviewing Jake from The Pre-Order Bonus podcast. Below you will find episodes of The Pre-Order Bonus podcast that cover the games we discuss on this show:
Pentiment
A Plague Tale: Innocence
Chained Echoes
Arco
Untitled Goose Game
The discussion of each game contains spoilers, so please refer to the timestamps below to avoid those as needed. It’s a long episode, so feel free to skip around!
