Gaming's Biggest Reevaluations, Fable, Cairn Review
Donate here for Giant Bomb and MinnMax's ICE Out charity stream this Friday at 5pm Central on Twitch and YouTube - http://bit.ly/iceoutminneapolis
MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Haley MacLean, Jeff Marchiafava, and Jacob Geller rave about the new mountain-climbing game Cairn before diving into Cyberpunk 2077 and the history of reevaluating games years after they released. After that we have a fun discussion about whether Playground's Fable launching later this year can compare to the original game, defend Highguard, and JeffM gets weird talking about trading babies. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week! You can win a prize and help make the show better by supporting us on Patreon and submitting a question! https://www.patreon.com/minnmax

MinnMax's official Usual Guest Host Kyle Bosman teams up with fellow Kyle Kyle Hilliard to unpack Nintendo's whelming Fall offerings, with Sarah Podzorski diving into her latest favorite shopkeeper sim Strange Antiquities and Leo Vader also in the mix providing an undefinable je ne sais quoi. Then the crew answers some all-bangers community questions before revealing who was this episode's Twerp!
