The Besties: Sea of Stars Won Over the Most Unlikely Bestie

By The Besties
An illustration of a white trophy with four black figures. One is lifting the bottom of the trophy, another is waving from the top, another is climbing the handle, and the last figure is standing next to it with its arms outstretched. The background is gold. There is a light yellow light shining out from the trophy. Above it says, “The Besties” in black serif font with an orange laurel on either side.

This week’s game, the classic JRPG-inspired Sea of Stars, seems like it’d be up the alley of a couple of this podcast’s humble hosts, and definitely not up the alley of some others. Well, guess again, buckaroo! Because it’s got crossover appeal that we absolutely did not see coming.

Also discussed: Karateka, Baldur’s Gate 3, Fae Farm, Game Changers: The Video Game Revolution, The Beauty of Games, The Faculty, Who Shat On the Floor at My Wedding
