Watch Out for Fireballs! 463: Superliminal
How big is a game? How small is it? These questions are a matter of perspective, and Superluminal is here to teach you about perspective.Support Watch Out for Fireballs!
Adaptation Decay 94: Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
The film that nobody asked for, and yet all we have left are questions. One thing the film certainly doesn't leave misunderstood: that sand? That's time sand. Not that the* prince uses it much.*There is more than once prince.

Abject Suffrage: January 2025
Thought you saw the last of me, did you? Well, I've got news for you. Just because Exquisite Suffering is retiring doesn't mean you don't get to vote in these silly polls. In fact, it is now mandatory.The winner will be covered on the final Abject Suffering of the month.Here are your victims this month:Dr. Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat (PS2)Mike Myers, why?!Lucky Luke (PSX)A cowboy game where a cowboy does the main thing cowboys are kn...
Abject Suffering 591: Spider Man: City Raid
You likely don’t know what Spider-Man: City Raid is. It’s not a big budget title like the the Activision movie tie-ins or the recent Insomniac titles. In fact, it has no official license at all. It’s a Flash game made purely for the love of Spider-Man, and the Ram Jam song “Black Betty” for some reason.
Bonfireside Chat 315: Recluse's River
This week we find the very hidden entrance to a very hidden path to a very hidden area. Shadow Keep hides a way to reach the Recluse’s River, which is the warpath that the hornsent inquisition took to bring great force to bear on Midra in the Abyssal Woods. Along the way we will complete our final two mini-dungeons and descend further than ought to be possible, as we approach the coolest area in the game.
Real Lich Hours 55: The Temple of Bhaal
In this episode we turn Orin’s Orinsides Inside Orout.Other Segments:Complete Priest’s Handbook: Divine InterventionLegends and Lore: OrinFind Familiar: Baal Butlers

Walt celebrates a birthday. Skyler goes for a swim.We would like to thank Gwen Static for composing our theme song, and Trent Peters for creating our great podcast art.
Watch Out for Fireballs! 462: Super Castlevania IV
Casltevania evolves into the nest generation. This is the last hurrah of the Classic-vanias. Demanding platforming, simple progression. Dare we say we prefer them over the RPG-vanias at this point?Support Watch Out for Fireballs!

Two monsters, no waiting
Abject Suffering 590: Home Alone (PS2)
This week we talk about the little-known PS2 game adaptation of Home Alone, a Christmas classic that was already super old in 2006 when this came out. But honestly, there’s very little there to talk about. Instead, we camp out on the taxonomical horror of a picture of corndogs Gary took ten years ago. Here’s the photo: https://bsky.app/profile/garybutterfield.bsky.social/post/3ldi4heqxj22c

Bonfireside Chat 314: The Cathedral of Manus Metyr
The hands of the cosmos have many fingers, and all of their movements tell a story. But what that story means is up for interpretation. And this week we venture to the Cathedral of Manus Metyr and meet a very strange man named Count Ymir, who claims to have knowledge of the true nature of the Greater Will, the Two Fingers, and the origins of Marika’s divinity. Is he trustworthy? Who knows!? Let’s go blow whistles for him.
Real Lich Hours 54: The Stone Lord
In this episode we… "do some butt-kicking for righteous justice". Wait, is that right?Other Segments:Deities and Demigods: WaukeenLegends and Lore: MinscFiend Folio: Giant Space Hamster
They've Developed a Game Completely Resistant to Coverage
Well, we can't actually do Project Snowblind. Last year, I put this game on the schedule because of the Deus Ex connection, and because I had vaguely fond memories of playing the PS2 version. Playing the PC port was acceptably janky up until level 3 or so, when I was beset by constant crashes. I was losing progress left and right. It was too frustrating and I called an audible, vowing to bring the game back when possible. Flash forward to me ...
Watch Out for Fireballs!: Kirby's Adventure (Premium)
This one's just for you, our dear Patrons.We suck up our enemies and absorb their powers in this early, but charming Kirby adventure.

Everything to Guppy 991: Monster Blitz Pt. 42
This technically constitutes our Christmas episode. (Contains no Christmas content.)
Unfilmable 70: Gremlins 2
Merry Christmas! Oops. I mean, Happy New Year! It's Gremlins 2, the cartoon that walks like a horror movie. Joe Dante presents a gag-a-minute comedy in a rare example of complete creative control working out beautifully.
Abject Suffering 589: Inspector Gadget
What is the meaning of Inspector Gadget? Is he basically a cyberzombie, which would explain the bungling? In which ball is the essence stored? This mostly on-topic episode is not afraid to ask the important and hard-hitting questions about this awful metal man.
Bonfireside Chat 313: Scaduview
This week we complete the last of Shadow Keep, exploring the rear of the Specimen Storehouse before killing Messmer’s best bud Commander Gaius, and stumbling across the location where Marika’s whole story began.
Real Lich Hours 53: The House of Grief
In this episode we lose it all to the Lady of Loss at The House of Grief.Other Segments:Character Roundup: ShadowheartLegends and Lore: ViconiaSage Advice: Mirror of Loss
Best Quality Vacuum 53: Hazard Pay
Of all the crazy stuff that happens in Season 5, making meth inside a pest control house is the one that gets my vote for most outlandish. Still pretty good TV, though.We would like to thank Gwen Static for composing our theme song, and Trent Peters for creating our great podcast art.

Exquisite Suffering 203: Reign of Fire
Reign of Fire is the kind of movie you can’t make anymore, and that’s a good thing. It’s the perfect storm of post-9/11 militarism, and post-Lord of the Rings fantasy bandwagon chasing, with a pre-Batman Christian Bale and a pre-McConaughssaince Matthew McConnaughey. While a game about shooting dragons with guns should have a pretty high entertainment floor, this one absolutely biffs it by making you enact some of the worst vehicle combat t...
