Episode notes

In this chapter, they discuss a game that feels like an evolution of Wordle, with more social conversation involved. They also talk about a puzzle game called Cocoon, set in an alien world, where players control a bug creature and solve puzzles within multiple layers of balls. The game has no traditional story or dialogue. They find it difficult to summarize the game accurately.
