It’s the end of term at Discussion: [Indie Game] (spoilers!) and Rik and Jo celebrate with a bumper size chat about Swedish thriller The Samaritan Paradox.

PhD student Ord Salamon is aimlessly bored and putting off writing his thesis when his friend Magnus calls him with some positive encouragement to read a book: specifically, the book Magnus lent Ord a little while ago.

It’s not a game about reading a book though… Well, it sort of is, actually, but in between reading, Ord is drawn into an increasingly complex tale of danger, intrigue and mystery.

Topics under discussion also include having plans for a horse, whether a saw or a snore is louder, and what happens if you try drying wet and dirty clothes with an iron.
