Season 16 of Good Game Spawn Point arrives on ABC iview Friday, July 4, at 7 AM AEST, bringing back its blend of gaming reviews, tips, and family-friendly fun. Hosted by Gem Driscoll, this season looks to expand its reach with a steady stream of surprise guests and a renewed focus on content for both kids and their parents.
The new season kicks off strong, with actress Chloe Hayden jumping into Spyro in Episode 1. But that’s just the start. Olympic gold medalist skateboarder Keegan Palmer joins Gem for a Lego Star Wars adventure in Episode 2, while OG Good Game host Bajo returns in Episode 3 to revisit Portal 2. Other episodes will see YouTube personality Prezley tackling Super Smash Bros, musical comedian Gabbi Bolt revisiting a cursed Harry Potter game, and the Fairbairn brothers diving into Ratchet and Clank. An old friend of Gem, Harry, joins her for Secret of Mana in Episode 7.
Beyond the guest stars, the show continues its familiar segments, including “The Minecrafters,” “The Resetters,” “Ask SG” with Screen Goblin, and “Level Up Kitchen.” This means plenty of game reviews, quizzes, and comedy segments, all designed to appeal to the family that plays together.
The consistent appeal of Good Game Spawn Point lies in its ability to speak directly to young gamers while giving enough depth and humor to keep parents engaged. This season, with its steady stream of guest appearances, aims to maintain that balance.
