Daydreamcast: Harvester (1996)

What would it take to push you over the edge and break the Fifth Commandment?

Bro and Murph explore this deep and philosophical question through the 1996 cult FMV horror game Harvester. It tells the story of Steve, just an average guy no one understands (mainly due to his history of being a kidder), who awakes in a home he doesn’t recognize in a town he doesn’t know.

Created to be as controversial as possible to draw attention and sell copies, Harvester became infamous for just that and languished in obscurity until modern reappraisal in the era of Video Essays and Let’s Plays. Will Bro and Murph find the same gems of wisdom amidst the carnage and stilted acting? Or are some grotesqueries best left forgotten?

Also on deck is that deck-builder Balatro and takes on Dragon’s Dogma II served hot and fresh.
