    Trev and Ben get serious this week, as the new random word generator brings more serious prompts. So serious in fact that they can't be added together anymore. The serious games they discussed were:

    • An adventure game with global consequences if the young campers don't make it through the week
    • An adventure game set over a single night where boy band members must make it through the night without being cancelled
    • A scientist utilizes the strange electrical properties of the ornithological creatures on his island in a puzzle game.
