This episode takes a deep dive into the aesthetic, emotional, Ghibli-inspired world of Neva, the second Nomada Studios game after the beloved Gris. It has the same fantastic watercoloured art and emotional tone, and adds some more video gamey elements like health, combat, and fail states — for better, and for worse.

In the roundup: Cat Quest 3, Warhammer 40k: Space Marine II, the latest Xbox showcase, Wheel World, The Legend Of Baboo, FBC Firebreak, and more.

The pod's back with a review of lovely French indie game Caravan SandWitch. It's a mellow, low-key open world exploration game set on a dusty, post-industrial sci-fi planet. The game’s story and dialogue have problems, but driving your trusty yellow van around this gorgeous little world makes up for it.

Also mentioned: Astro Bot, Ghost of Yotei, The Midnight Walk, Fear The Spotlight, Lego Horizon, Horizon Zero Dawn, Soul Reaver: Legacy of Kain, Switch 2, Annapurna Interactive.
