General opinion on Twitter seemed positive, there was a swarm of millennial's praising Alfie's every breath, as well as people warming to Big Narstie's enthusiasm and his lack of filter "All I could hear was bleeping."
I really enjoyed the vast majority of the games, only one I took issue with was Alfie's first Aztec game being a virtual carbon copy of a 90's medieval game just with symbols replacing shields. HOWEVER I am not the only target demographic. Since the vast majority of viewers won't remember that game or weren't alive when it was on, why not do a bit of recycling, there's plenty of brand new games to keep me smiling.
Now there's been a few articles put out as a bit of publicity, as they did last year they invited journalists to try some games, and according to a couple of pieces, some superfans were invited to test the new games. Those lucky swines. Well, lucky and probably at least in one case devilishly handsome.
