episode 49: Everybody Dies and Bee


The guys from Grue tackle another pair of modern Interactive Fiction games, or at least try to. First up is Everybody Dies, by Jim Munroe, in which ... well, everybody dies. Until they don't. And maybe there are ghosts. Next is Bee, by Emily Short, about going to a spelling bee. Except the only version of the game available doesn't include the spelling bee. Infocom games were never this complicated.

Hosts: Kay Savetz and Carrington Vanston

Theme tune: "It Is Pitch Dark" by MC Frontalot
