Miasma Chronicles | PC Review

The Miasma Chronicles from The Bearded Ladies is the developer’s follow-up to Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden. It follows the similar gameplay style popularized by the X-Com series, but should you buy it? One of our writers, Relle, put together a video review to share his impressions of the game and to show how the game’s mechanics work. You can check it out below to see why he was pleasantly surprised by this title and plans to check out their last game.

To hear him talk more about Nine Years of Shadows, be sure to listen to our May 24th episode of The Gaming Outsider Podcast around the 1:20:22 time stamp.

Scott Clark

Scott has been a fan of pushing buttons since he was old enough to climb up to his father’s stereo as a toddler. His first console was the Atari 2600 back in the early 80’s, and his passion for the hobby shines through his excitement and wish to share his experiences with anyone who will listen. Scott began his podcasting career with “The Official Thread Podcast”, which was dedicated to news, impressions, and general topics about the subject of video games. That coupled with over four years of experience with “The Hollywood Outsider Podcast” has given him the reputation of being the “every man”, in that he gets along with almost everyone he interacts and also doesn’t speak down to his audience.
