Or: "The Milk Incident"
Hey, there. It's another episode of Nerds Without Pants. I'd go into the whole spiel and show notes and what-not, but to be honest does it matter? it's a long podcast. We talk about video games. And milk, for some reason.
What do ivory, supernatural abilities, and religious zealots have in common?
I’ll start by saying that I’m in awe of Iconoclasts. It’s the culmination of nearly eight years of solo work by Joakim Sandberg. As someone who has built a much simpler game from scratch on my own, I can assure you this was no easy feat, and for such a complex and beautiful game it’s really a stunning achievement. The world, the art, the music, and the gameplay are all phenomenal. Traversing the world, solving puzzles, exploring the locales, and defeating bosses is consistently entertaining. I have some reservations with the story and the, at times, cringey dialog. The story does prove to be quite memorable in the end, but for much of Iconoclasts, I found myself lost in it, focused solely on the gameplay.
We may not be for everybody, but people in the know find us to be super tasty!
