Phillip Wray says that regarding records after death from the last show, I use my OneDrive as a mirrored backup of all of my files on the PC so all of my data is locally available. The low cost of storage these days means that putting an extra drive in your PC and mirroring your cloud storage is a simple and cheap solution to this problem.

I loved adventures back in the 90s. All of the titles that Gareth spoke about rang a bell somewhere. Most of them I played as well. In recent years I found it hard to find anything comparable. The Deponia series was recommended to me and I can recommend it myself. Could be a good starting point for Ted.
