It's the first bonus episode of the Stuck in a Lift podcast -- a micro lift, or a dumbwaiter, if you will -- with only enough room for some bitesize chat. In this chill edition of the SIAL pod, Thomas tackles three games that he's been playing recently and feels are worthy of a strong recommendation. These games are V Rising, The Cycle: Frontier, and Metal: Hellsinger, as well as a cheeky bit of Dune: Spice Wars, all of which are linked below. Normal podcast schedule will resume in two weeks.

Oh no. Thomas E. Staples, writer and game developer, is on a mission, and that mission is... to talk about video games, I guess. Every two weeks (for now), Staples -- with the help of some great guests -- will tackle a much beloved or much despised video game, reduce it down to its bare essentials, and answer a question as old as time itself: "How would you pitch this game if you found yourself stuck in a lift?" That's it. That's the gimmick. Follow @mrtestaples to keep up to date with the host, and email any queries to stuckinaliftpod@gmail.com.
