Donkey Kong Bananza And The Complicated Pac-Man Metroidvania | The Game Informer Show

by Alex Van Aken on Jul 18, 2025 at 05:28 PM

In this week's episode of The Game Informer Show, we rave about Donkey Kong Bananza on Switch 2, which shines on the new Nintendo console, and the complicated Pac-Man Metroidvania called Shadow Labyrinth. We also recommend a great new stealth game, Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream, praising it for its gorgeous art direction and brilliant final act. Finally, Charles rounds out the podcast episode, briefly chatting about the Bravely Default HD remaster and a house-decorating Picross-like puzzler called Squeakross.
