Monster Train 2 Demo, Marvel Snap, Urine Batteries & Tooth-in-Eye Surgery

I'm reading the title of this episode and just reflecting on the madness of this show that we make.This episode of Game For Anything, Rad proves that a free demo can subsist your gaming needs by sinking 10 hours into the Monster Train 2 demo (now it's more like 20 hours). Plus, Paul gives us another update on Marvel Snap, and discovers new nightmares he never knew existed as Rad tells him about "tooth-in-eye surgery". That's right, a sight-restoring surgery that literally replaces an eyeball with a tooth.Also, we announce the winner of our Logitech giveaway, and discuss all the different ways that urine can make batteries. I promise we're not taking the piss. Also, Paul had drunk his pee before. Ayiyiyi. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
