Game collector OngakuGamer returns to chat about the long-running JRPG franchise, Atelier! Having recently broken out into the mainstream, we talk about the history of the series, its unique premise, and whether or not we actually understand the alchemy system. And thoughts on the puzzle/action titles Kuru Kuru Kururin and Amazing Bomberman, plus more Zelda than you can shake a stick (with a boulder on it) at!
