352 - Legally Distinct Princess of Twilight
<p>On this episode of Random Encounter, we poke Nintendo's lawyers with a stick. They don't notice.</p><p>First up, we are exploring the latest entry in a long-running series of RPG-esque board games, Culdcept Begins! This soft reboot of the series features a new graphical style and streamlined gameplay. But does its Monopoly-meets-Magic: The Gathering-style gameplay hit the board game nostalgic spot for Ben?</p><p>Then, Aleks is here to chat about Dusklight, a native PC port of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Obviously, this was not published by Nintendo, but as usual, fans do what Nintendon't. How are they getting away with it? It is just a launcher. You need your own original game discs in order to play the game! If you loved Twilight Princess on the GameCube or Wii and it's been years since you've gotten a chance to play it, give this incredible fan achievement a shot!</p><p> </p><p>Featuring: Jono Logan, Aleks Franiczek, and Ben Love; Edited by Jono Logan</p><p><br><strong>Get in Touch:</strong><br><a href="https://www.rpgfan.com/">RPGFan.com</a><br><a href="https://www.rpgfan.com/shop">RPGFan Shop</a><br>Email us: <a href="mailto:podcast@rpgfan.com">podcast@rpgfan.com</a><br>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/rpgfancom/">@rpgfancom</a><br>Bluesky: <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/rpgfan.bsky.social">@rpgfan.bsky.social</a><br>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rpgfancom">@rpgfancom</a><br>Threads: <a href="https://www.threads.net/@rpgfancom">@rpgfancom</a><br>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/rpgfancom">rpgfancom</a><br>Twitch: <a href="https://www.twitch.tv/rpgfancom">rpgfancom</a></p><p><strong>This Episode's Related Links:<br></strong><a href="https://www.rpgfan.com/review/culdcept-begins/"><strong>Culdcept Begins</strong></a><strong><br></strong><a href="https://www.rpgfan.com/review/dusklight/"><strong>Dusklight (The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess) Review</strong></a><strong><br></strong><a href="https://www.rpgfan.com/review/the-legend-of-zelda-twilight-princess-2/"><strong>The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Review</strong></a></p>
