We'll DM you a Steam code for Promise Mascot Agency if you support MinnMax on Patreon at any tier before 10/20/25. We'll post on all social channels if we run out of codes. https://www.patreon.com/minnmax

MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Kyle Hilliard, married man Jacob Geller, and special guest Chris Plante from The Besties and Post Games break down their love for the new rogue games Absolum, Ball X Pit, and Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor. They also go back in time to re-review Super Mario Galaxy 2 now that it's on the Nintendo Switch 2 and share thoughts on the powerful ROG Xbox Ally X handheld.
