- TerraScape: Fun little boardgamey tile placement game. IMO it ends up a bit less pretty than Dorfromantic, but it's way more satisfying to play. Very Number Go Up.
- Hitman World of Assassination: I've been back in hard on roguelike mode and comprehensively playing the first two games' campaigns has made me WAY better at it than I previously was. I should get around to game 3 sometime but I think I kinda burned myself out writing those two huge posts, lmao. Oh well! Game's still fun
- Car Mechanic Simulator 2021: A classic podcast/relaxation game for me, I've been zonking to this lately when tired. It's just satisfying screwing and unscrewing stuff. It just is
- Mimic Logic: "What if someone somehow glued procgen "one of us only lies, one of us only tells the truth" puzzle to a dungeon crawler" is not what I expected to be an incredibly compelling setup, but this RPG maker thing is surprisingly fun. Enter rooms full of chests and try not to open the ones that are actually lying mimics. Beat up monsters with the items in the non-mimic chests. It's pretty cute!!
- Expeditions: A Mudrunner game: I've been playing this slowly. It's fun! It's hard! It's Car Suffering(TM). I hope the initial negative reception doesn't put them off continuing to grow it, because it's a blast.
- Unicorn Overlord: Vanillaware made a real good systems-based tactical RPG! I'm so on the fence if I need to up the difficulty level to max for my first playthrough - it's a bit on the easy side - but it's pretty refreshing to play something in this space that isn't either tactics ogre or fire emblem. Story's forgettable but that's fine.
- High Seas Saga DX: This de-F2P'd kairosoft game mostly really feels a lot like a free to play game still. I'm not sure how I feel about it. But it's a cute idea and plays NOTHING like the rest of their games, which in and of itself is very rare.
- Pacific Drive: I finished this a week or two ago. WHAT A BLAST. Huge, huge recommend, I loved every moment of it. If you like the idea of a run based lite-horror/crafting game with a surprisingly good plot, GET ON THIS
- Shiren 6: Continues to be a great classical mystery dungeon roguelike. Man the (HUGE AMOUNT of) postgame stuff is hard, I'm getting my ass kicked.
I need to get back to Astlibra Gaiden but I marathoned the game soooo hard and needed a break. Lovely stuff tho.
