Joining for the first time today is Matt, aka Stormaggedon, as they guide Lewbop through the twisting, mysterious world of Control, Remedy Entertainment's acclaimed supernatural action-adventure.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • What makes Control one of the most unique games of its generation
  • Matt's Veteran impressions and favourite moments throughout the journey
  • The strange world of the Federal Bureau of Control (FBC) and the Oldest House
  • Jesse Faden's story, paranormal abilities, and unforgettable boss encounters
  • How Control's gameplay, atmosphere, and worldbuilding hold up years after release
  • Whether Control is still worth playing in 2026 and our thoughts on the upcoming sequel Control: Resonant

Originally released in 2019 by Remedy Entertainment, Control combines fast-paced third-person action with mind-bending supernatural storytelling. From shifting architecture and telekinetic combat to cryptic lore and memorable characters, we break down what makes this modern classic such a standout experience—and why it continues to attract new players years later.
