Abnormal Mapping 135: Yume Nikki and Ib

Abnormal Mapping

We have another huge haul of games as we talk about seemingly everything under the sun but also two games for the lengthening nights as we do a sort of horror month talking about two moody classics of the RPG Maker indie games scene: Yume Nikki and Ib! It was great to be able to talk about such a fun genre, get out of our comfort zones a bit, and explore some real gaming history.

Send us questions about our game clubs, other games, or gaming in general to [e-mail]!
