Hello class! Today, our Gaming Garcon Eric is providing us with a lesson on the definition, history, and impact of roguelike games. So, make sure to sit up straight and take notes, as there will be an exam on this at the end of the episode.

Welcome to a SPOOOOKY episode of Pixel Snobs! In what is what we hope to be the first of many annual Halloween episodes, we discuss "Mouthwashing", an atmospheric, sci-fi, psychological horror.

Our inexplicable tradition of playing road trip-based games continues! Nigel and Eric discuss Keep Driving, one of the best indie games of 2025.

After bringing their editing computer back from the dead, Nigel and Eric are back! This time we talk about The Artful Escape, a gorgeous, psychedelic game about finding yourself... but it ends up not being as good of an acid trip as we initially thought.

Somehow it took us two years to cover only our second walking simulator game, but we saved it for one of the best. Today we talk about Firewatch one of the most prolific indie games of the 2010's. Eric rides an elevator. Nigel nails the outro.

It's official: we now have an established tradition of sharing our most anticipated games of the year, and this year we're going cover the year of our Lord 2025. Nigel goes through puberty. Eric has a good idea.
