In the latest episode of the podcast we discuss the game Milk inside a bag of milk inside a bag of milk. It’s a relatively short visual novel in which you help a girl face the challenge of going out to buy milk. It’s worth playing through, so go check it out if you don’t want spoilers!

Also, content warning, this episode contains descriptions of suicide and suicide methods, so please be aware of that when deciding if and how you chose to listen.

Hosts Sachin, Hammy and Don talk about the mental health themes within the game, and the challenge of everyday tasks when you’re dealing with psychiatric symptoms. We also talk about what the game might mean, and its various themes, including suicide and recovery. Who is the player meant to be? Why is the main character haunted by the letter O? Why does her mother seem so unsettling?
