That's me (Chris, newish Dice Tower Editor) playing the sax. I was just going to let it be a mystery, but there is a little backstory here. When the game came to the studio I told Tom that if he reviews it I have a soprano sax and a Kenny G songbook (it was a gift...i swear...) that I could bring in for him to hold or have in the shot. The morning he shot the review he told me to meet him in the studio and play those two songs...I said, "but Tom..I thought you were just going to have them in the shot, not have me play...I'm a bit rusty." (I mainly play alto and compose) He said it would be funny either way, and I was off camera so I figured why not. It was fun. Then, about ten minutes after we finished the shots and I put my sax away, he noticed he forgot to turn on his mic...so there was no sound. So we got to do it all again. It was a fun morning. Chris

Carless whispers? Look for the George Michael song of the same name (almost, it’s singular), which has one of the most recognizable sax lines in pop music, if not the most.

Who was playing the sax? As a professional jazz saxophonist I can see that they were not pretending to play but actually playing. On the topic of the game - hilarious theme. I am very much not a fan of Kenny G, but it would be a funny ironic/satirical game to play with my fellow musicians. I probably won’t get it because it does look very simplistic but I am amused nonetheless.

This would be hilarious to play very quietly in a corner of the FLGS but then saying loudly scatting the onomatopoeia!!! 😂🤣 I don't know if this is ridiculous or genius but as someone who has a gym playlist titled 'Saxy Time' I might just have to give this a go!! 😁👍🎼🎷🎶 🎶

Game based on a person who had one hit in the 80s, at least in the UK (Just checked - wasn't even all that successful in the U.S., but amazingly popular in China). Not sure that the theme/branding will help a lot. I can imagine many kids won't even know who he is.

"This game doesn't offer many deep meaningful choices" pretty much sums up Kenny G's career.
