This is a story about regeneration. The Videopals' regeneration!!!!!! Christa couldn't be on this year so we enlisted the self-proclaimed "most arrogant, yet also most nervous" writer in games, Nadia, to help us figure out the game of the year for 2018. Why? Well, someone has to talk about 'em. Oh, every games publication and person on twitter did that already? Well, they didn't talk about BanG Dream! Girls Band Party, so they sound like a bunch of cowards to me.

The GameChangerz are: Eden (@fontiago), Nadia (@FarewellRuins), Esper (@EsperControl), and Marina (changed her name since recording!) (@radiant_hero). Also check out Timber Owls, they do the best games crit.
