About this episode

The episode covers Act 1 of Policenauts, discussing the game's narrative and mechanics.

Hi, guys! So, for whatever reason, Riverside (our new distribution and recording platform) decided that episodes can no longer be over three hours long. We're working with their support to see what can be done, but for the time being we're releasing the uncut versions of episodes over on the Patreon for $1+ supporters. We'll keep everyone informed as to if this will be a permanent change or something temporary. Apologies for the delay and for the last-minute alteration to our typical release format. --- This episode we're covering Policenauts (1996) Act 1: Beyond. The adventures of groping Jonathan continue!
