On this special Threepcast minisode, the Ridgways dive into the world of fangames to cover the most infamous pop culture-laden “de-make” of Monkey Island 2…  it’s none other than M:I-2; LeChuck’s Revenge!  Within this minisode, we wax nostalgic about early 2000s Internet and the old Klik & Play fangame scene, we re-evaluate this fangame and discuss how well it’s aged, and last (but certainly not least), we interview the game’s creator Christopher Ushko (via text) to talk about his inspiration for the game and what it was like to make.

It’s time for our annual spooktastic Halloween episode of Threepcast!  This year, the spooks skew towards the surreal and sarcastic as we review the cartoon adventure Tony Tough and the Night of Roasted Moths, a game all about a man and his missing dog (or was it a tapir?)

Next month, we return to the world of twisted social experiments and play the second in the Zero Escape series – Virtue’s Last Reward.
