About This Episode
Hunting Easter eggs is equal parts rewarding and frustrating. But the pay off always seems to be worth it. We are conditioned to look for things in peculiar places from a young age with books like Highlights and Where’s Waldo? And who can forget, Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego? To this day I have no answer to that question.
Easter eggs in video games can be either a long journey or a complete accident. We think that each has its own merit, and that’s what we want to talk about this week on the Free Play Podcast.
