The Electronic Wireless Show Podcast episode 155: the best puzzles in games specialThe Riddler seems pretty weird if you ask us

The Riddler seems pretty weird if you ask us

We here at the Electronic Wireless Showpodcasthave done an episode about puzzles before, but Matthew and I just love puzzles a whole lot. We’re talking about our favourite puzzle, as well, not puzzle game. This means that nate can bring up games about orcs, or whatever, that also happen to have a puzzle in them somewhere. Also yes, I got the number of the podcast wrong again, I know I keep doing this, let’s just all move on together.

What is a surprise is that we don’t really need to spend ages arguing over what the definition of a puzzle is, which I think shows personal growth. Well done us! Asides this week include what role Matthew you fill on the team in a heist movie, Nate vs. Rufus Hound, and what the hell is the Riddler’s whole deal about, anyway? Also: please give us creative control of all major IPs in cinema and games, so we can remake them to be about the drink Rio Tropical.
