We’re back from our Holiday break and are ready to talk about our favourite games of 2020. This year was a weird one, especially because of the on-going pandemic: games were delayed and confinement changed our gaming habits. So, we’re mixing up the format of this episode by not limiting it to games released in 2020 but to all the games we played this year instead, regardless of when they came out. We discuss which games brought us the most joy, which were one let us down, which ones surprised us and which ones we wished we had time to play but didn’t get to. We close out the show by picking our Game of the Year 2020.
