We held many of our thoughts back this season as we were going through the episodes, but in this episode we don’t hold back. We give our final thoughts on season 1, discussing what we felt went right and what went wrong. We’re also joined by a special guest, who watched the show before playing the game, to get their perspective on it. We discuss the differences in characters, major moments from the game that were missing, and we also discuss some of the challenges they may face adapting the second game in Season 2.
