Tales From the Backlog

I was invited back onto Tales from the Backlog, except this time, instead of relieving my backlog of a game we talked about the legendary Backlog Resolutions Challenge!

Within Dave’s discord server lies a channel. Within this channel lies a google sheet. Each year, everyone gathers to this google sheet to create a Backlog Resolutions list: A list of games that you already own, that you may keep overlooking, that you pledge to play sometime in the next year.

Of course it is not that serious, and in this episode we look back over the year, what we played, what we learned, how we did, and how we are going to approach our gaming next year.

I thoroughly enjoyed being part of the Backlog Resolutions 2025 challenge, and I am looking forward to see where the lessons learned (or not learned) take me into 2026!

Thanks again Dave for having me on to talk about this really fun idea, that is growing into it a life of its own.

Dave Jackson invited me onto Tales from the Backlog to tackle a game that has been on my backlog for quite a long time. The game we chose is Tacoma!

After finally experiencing the game, I would categorise Tacoma as an underrated gem and I am baffled that I haven’t heard more conversation of a game that, in my opinion, does so much with so little. I fear that it runs the risk of being relegated to other peoples backlogs in the same way that it was for me. Hopefully our conversation can move it up the priority list for folks as it is short, intriguing, and can be played at whatever pace suits you best.

Tales from the Backlog is a weekly games club style podcast with an extensive back catalogue. The first section of every episode is spoiler free so you don’t need to be worried about hitting the play button on a game that you are curious about.

Special thanks to Dave for having me on, it was such a pleasure.
