MAGE CAST episode #059 – “Microwaved Hamsters” (Maniac Mansion)

2 min read
A Maniac Mansion podcast: comedy meets horror (there's less difference than you may imagine), plus Skywalker Ranch, adventure, and tentacles.

 

Censorship and sadistic puzzle design, the nature of comedy overlapping with horror, the distinction between funny and humorous, and a point-and-click graphic adventure that’s a true trailblazer in gaming history… I’m the Well-Red Mage and this is MAGE CAST feat. special guest Bill Tucker of A Gamer Looks At 40. Here is our Maniac Mansion podcast!

Red formerly ran The Well-Red Mage and now serves The Pixels as founder, writer, editor, and podcaster. He has undertaken a seemingly endless crusade to talk about the games themselves in the midst of a culture obsessed with the latest controversy, scandal, and news cycle about harassment, toxicity, and negativity.
