Let's talk about our discussion today. So to kick things off, I just want to talk about the rules

we'll be following. And first things first, this is a horror game podcast, but we're not going to

be talking about Castlevania. Maybe one day, RetroNots will do a Castlevania podcast. People have

been asking us, it's never happened. I think it'll happen one day. Just keep giving to the Patreon.

Yeah, I mean, it's for a long time and it's weird. Jeremy would love 17, like 17 years.

Good Lord. That man loves those games. Has he played Castlevania? Everyone tweeted him and ask him if

he has because I don't think he has. And I think he should get on that. So I'm just trolling everybody

right now. By the way, I know we do a lot of Castlevania stuff. But yes, no Castlevania, just too

obvious. And you know, the kind of the games are too good and we talked about them a lot. So

that's why we are going to avoid them. But I want to break down these games into a series of

categories. And then we're going to come out the end with a number. Well, we're going to grade

these games with a number and we're done with the discussion via what I call the Rancid Rubric.

There we go. Sorry, I was a little slow on that. I need a button. But yeah, so the three categories

for this podcast will be box arts. So the questions I'm asking are how disturbing is it? And we can

include what's on the back of the box, like copy. And you know, what's in the instruction booklet.
