CSI: Deadly Intent: The Hidden Cases - TtT The Return 06

Skunkape's newest Telltale remaster is of Poker Night at the Inventory, coming March 5th 2026 to Steam, Nintendo Switch, and Playstation! Joining us today for a discussion on the game, Telltale, Skunkape, and everything in between are Emily Morganti and Jake Rodkin of Skunkape Games! Both are also alumni of Telltale Games and we take advantage of the opportunity to get some POTENTIALLY EXCITING SCOOPS about the history of the company. Listen and hear some interesting tidbits about Telltale's relationship with the Penny Arcade comic, the band The Gorillaz, and something called "The Mystery Zone." Having Jake and Emily on the show was an absolute treat. Also, Emily makes awesome dollhouses.

We conclude our exploration of the Monkey Island series with the one remaining game neither of us have played? Is it as good as the other ones? No, definitely not. Is it still kind of fun? Yeah sure kind of! Was this a strange pick for our last episode of the podcast for a while? Yes, absolutely. Wolfe on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/wolfefm.bsky.social Dustin on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/theflyingdustman.bsky.social Join us in about a month for our coverage of the new remaster of Poker Night at the Inventory from Skunkape Games!

This one was a secret for Dustin. He didn't get to know what it was about before they started recording. You, however, cannot not know. It's in the title of the thing. There is no opportunity to surprise you, listener. You're so hard to shop for. Wolfe on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/wolfefm.bsky.social Dustin on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/theflyingdustman.bsky.social Join us next week for our coverage of the fourth game in the Monkey Island series, Escape from Monkey Island!!

Listen. Listen up. This one might be a bit of a hot take because we looked up the popular reception of this game after we recorded this episode and we were taken aback. We cannot lie, though. We cannot fib. This game was on the list, so we have to give it its due. It's our bond. Our responsibility. Our sacred accord. Wolfe on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/wolfefm.bsky.social Dustin on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/theflyingdustman.bsky.social Join us next week for a SECRET episode. Dustin doesn't even know what it's about.

While Dustin and Mitchell are busy polishing off the game we'll do our normal episode on next week, please check out this interview with Remy Siu from Sunset Visitor about their game 1000xResist! Sunset Visitor on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/sunsetvisitor.studio This was originally intended to be an episode of a new podcast that was, essentially, going to be a game-of-the-month club. Mitchell would sit down with a game developer every month and interview them about the game that we all spent the last month playing and thinking about. Unfortunately, for a bevy of reasons, the show was unable to be produced to the standard we would have liked. We were, however, granted an interview about 1000xResist before it was formally cancelled and thought it would be a shame if it couldn't see the light of day, so I'm hoping that listeners of the Telling the Tale podcast feed enjoy this one. 1000xResist is a beautiful game that should be a must-play for any fans of narrative adventure video games. Be warned that, while we don't go too heavy into spoilers, this conversation assumes the listener has played through the game. Also, there is a now-funny bit where we talk about how completely impossible it is to successfully release a game in an episodic fashion. Obviously Dispatch figured it out, but this was recorded prior to that. Stay tuned for next week when Dustin and Mitchell come back for a regular episode to discuss Star Trek Resurgence!  

We did a whole return of the podcast! Let's keep going through Dispatch. Dustin MAY even get a kiss in this one. Wolfe on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/wolfefm.bsky.social Dustin on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/theflyingdustman.bsky.social Join us next week for a special bonus ep with an interview with Remy Siu, director of 1000xResist!

These ones are sexy. Wolfe on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/wolfefm.bsky.social Dustin on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/theflyingdustman.bsky.social Join us next week when we'll cover episodes 5 and 6 of Dispatch!

AdHoc tuah, you know what I mean? Narrative adventure games are back in the headlines and so, somewhat reluctantly, are we. Dustin and Wolfe are back in the old podcast factory for a special limited engagement focusing on AdHoc's new critical darling, Dispatch. We'll be covering this game as it originally came out: two episodes at a time. Wolfe on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/wolfefm.bsky.social Dustin on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/theflyingdustman.bsky.social Join us next week when we'll cover episodes 3 and 4 of Dispatch!
