Topic of the Week:
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, the spin-off from the Borderlands series, is a spellbinding hit. Tiny Tina serves as Dungeon Master, guiding players through a hilarious in-game role-playing campaign called Bunkers & Badasses. Our Editor-In-Chief, Andrew Reiner, regales us with wild tales from his time reviewing the tabletop-themed looter shooter.
Read our review to find out why we describe Wonderlands as "upbeat and fun from start to finish."
The Playlist:
This week's playlist is packed. Blake talks about how the visual stylings and lore of Ghostwire: Tokyo's yokai spirits made him love an otherwise run-of-the-mill open-world game. John and Van Aken discuss the whimsy of Kirby And The Forgotten Land and its clever 3D platformer mechanics.
