In this episode of the 3v0 Podcast, Brendan and Jordan dive headfirst into Blue Prince, one of the most unique indie puzzle games of the year. Developed by solo dev Tonda Ross, Blue Prince blends roguelike mechanics, intricate escape room puzzles, and immersive lore into a mind-bending mansion mystery. We discuss the game’s layered mechanics, the importance of obsessive note-taking, and the joy (and madness) of solving estate-wide riddles with a friend. Plus, we share our personal gameplay experience, including the bizarre clues, secret safes, the elusive 46th room, and the Pepe Sylvia-style conspiracy board of it all. And stick around for a bonus round of “Two Truths and a Lie” featuring iconic architectural landmarks. If the Riddler had a panic attack and tried to design a house, it would probably look like this.
