Edutainment games on LGR? In 2025?! Yep!

Sorry that I couldn't post this episode of LGR early like usual! This is a new product (still technically unreleased publicly) so the press embargo I was under prevented any coverage until today.

The answer is yes! Although not as many as I'd like.
At the moment I'm confirmed to attend three shows:

Greetings! I have been trying to get some LGR videos made for December, but ideas have mostly been elusive and so far nothing's come together quite yet. It's made especially tricky since 99% of the collection is in storage and I don't have my usual setup going anymore while the house is being fixed up... Though I do have two ...

Unfortunately LGR will be postponed for a good while I feel.
More details to follow but the hurricane has done *incredible* damage to my place, I won’t be able to live there for a bit. Many folks I know have it much worse than I do too so please keep Asheville in your thoughts.
