Dads Game Review

What's up kids! This week, Paul and Josh set sail into the psychological nightmare that is Layers of Fear 2! Creepy mannequins, disappearing hallways, a director with serious control issues, and a story that makes about as much sense as Josh giving directions. Is it a brilliant horror experience or just two dads wandering around a haunted cruise ship wondering what the hell they're supposed to do...

What’s up, Kids! Paul and Josh are diving into High on Life 2—the only game where the guns talk more trash than we do. Expect bizarre aliens, questionable decisions, and enough chaos to make us wonder who approved either of us to save the universe.

Hey, Kids! Paul and Josh are stepping into the rat-infested nightmare of A Plague Tale: Innocence (Paul) & Requiem (Josh). Join us as we dodge the Inquisition, protect little Hugo, and discover how medieval France apparently didn’t believe in pest control!

What's Up, Kids! Paul and Josh are talking about The Fall of Quantic Dream and how they gave us masterful games like Heavy Rain, Beyond and Detroit.

Hey Kids! Josh and I are talking about Moss—the heartwarming story of a brave little mouse forced to save an entire kingdom because all the qualified adults were apparently busy. We discuss Quill’s adorable adventures, clever puzzles, gorgeous world, and our repeated attempts to prove that two grown men can be outsmarted by a game featuring a mouse with a sword. Quill may be tiny, but she carries...

What's up, Kids! Josh and I hit the streets in The Precinct, determined to clean up the city one traffic ticket, car chase, and wildly unnecessary use of police resources at a time. Josh tries to uphold the law while I discover that a badge is basically permission to drive terribly with the sirens on. Then, in the middle of recording, my living-room TV decided to come off the wall—because apparent...

Hey, Kids! Paul and Josh dust off their katanas and dive into Onimusha—the game that asked, "What if samurai fought demons... and tank controls?" We slice, dice, absorb enough souls to concern a therapist, and try to remember which door needed the crest shaped like a left-handed angry octopus. Is this PS2 legend still a masterpiece, or has time been the biggest demon of them all? Tune in before Jo...

What's Up Kids! This week on Dad's Game Review, Paul and John crack open the Commodore 64 Ultimate, a machine designed to answer the age-old question: "What if 1982 had HDMI?" Join them as they celebrate one of gaming's most iconic computers, relive the glory days of floppy disks, and marvel at a device that somehow makes retro gaming feel brand new again.

Hey Kids! This week on Dads Game Review, we're talking FMV games—the genre where Hollywood almost met video games and both sides walked away confused. From vampires in Night Trap to murder mysteries, bad acting, and impossible-to-fail quick-time events, we're revisiting the interactive movie craze that somehow keeps making a comeback. Are FMV games underrated classics or just glorified DVD menus?...

What's up, Kids! Josh and Paul dive into Mixtape, Annapurna’s nostalgic coming-of-age adventure packed with awkward teen moments, killer music vibes, and emotional damage disguised as memories. Almost if a clearance rack and Urban Outfitters was turned into a video game. Does it hit the right notes or just rewind the same old tape? Tune in and find out.

Hey, Kids! While Paul is moving into his new place, Josh is joined by guest host John to crack the case of the century: Mouse P.I. for hire.

The guys dive deep into tiny trench coats, questionable alibis, and what happens when the world’s smallest private investigator takes on his biggest case yet. Spoiler: it’s no...

What's up, Kids! Paul and Josh play the Metro series...So grab your gas mask, check your filters, and remember: in the Metro, it’s not about saving the world, it’s about not accidentally dooming it because you were low on ammo and high on bad decisions.

Hey, Kids! On this episode, Pau and Josh dive headfirst into RE9—where the horror is sharper, the stakes are higher, and nothing stays buried for long. Bring a flashlight… and maybe a change of pants.

Welcome Back, Kids! What happens when Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West meet LEGO bricks? Join Paul and Josh as we unpack LEGO Horizon Adventures, from its humor and style to how it feels compared to the main series. Spoiler: it’s way more delightful than it has any right to be.

What's up, Kids! This week, Josh and I played a game about digging a hole. No story, no combat—just two grown men discovering how deep boredom and self-reflection can really go.

Hey, Kids! Day after Christmas and we’re talking Assassin’s Creed: Mirage, the game that says, “Remember stealth? Remember subtlety? Remember when your skill tree didn’t look like a CVS receipt?” Grab your hidden blade, lower your expectations of parkour physics, and let’s disappear into the Mirage.

What's up, Kids! While Josh takes a break this week, John joins in the fun to talk about the 90's classic point and click phycological horror adventure I Have No Mouth but I Must Scream.  A game where an evil AI tortures humanity and fun is strictly forbidden. It’s dark, disturbing, and somehow we still joke about it.

Hey, Kids! Paul and Josh partake in a Friendsgiving episode where Josh and Paul exchange games to play this week. Josh plays Dispatch and realizes some of the decisions he made would get him written up in real life, while Paul plays Mouthwash, a fever dream on steroids with a touch of nightmares you didn't know you had in your head.

What's up, Kids! Paul and Josh ask the age old question, "Would splitting yourself into multiple versions might still not be enough to beat a tutorial."

Hey, Kids! This week on Dad’s Game Review, things go a little… off the rails. Paul gets way too high to actually talk about Skate!, leaving Josh to awkwardly fill the silence by bouncing between random games like a kid with a broken attention span. It’s part gaming discussion, part chaos, and entirely on brand for two dads who probably should’ve just taken a nap instead. Find us where all pods are...

Whats Up, Kids! Josh couldn’t get enough of Psychonauts 2 and its quirky charm, wild creativity, and amazing mind bending concept… Paul didn't finish it of course and was left feeling more puzzled than impressed.
