In Prop Fight, we pitch the frequently overlooked nuts and bolts of a game against one another in a battle royale to see which game does it best.

In this episode we want to see whether a chest full of loot makes sense in a game, from its physical location in the game to pure aesthetic value. It's drunken game design theory for beginners, but mainly it's an excuse to use the word 'ding-dong'.
