    Currently going through Warhammer 40K: Inquisitor - Martyr. The game itself is pretty basic, there is honestly not that much variation for skills or builds, the maps are pretty repeatable outside of main storyline and performance is terrible. Still, it scratches that itch that I’ve had for the past few weeks for a hack and slash game. And smashing into a horde of Tyranids with a big hammer is pretty satisfying.

    I’m on Island III of Cuphead. Just beat the Bee Boss and it was certainly brutal. Even then once you get better at understanding what you’re supposed to do with each fight it really helps.

    I started SKALD: Against the Black Priory yesterday and I’m just about an hour in, but so far it seems to be a pretty fun CRPG.

    Recently got Detroit: Become Human on discount. Just began to play it this week and my wife cant let me play alone. She is super invested in the story. And so am I.

    Just played Dead Cells for the first time.

    Ever since trying Hades I’ve decided to give Rogue Like (Lite?) games another chance. Dead Cells definitely scratches a metroidvania itch I’ve been having for awhile. Looking forward to giving it a few runs and seeing how much I like it!

    Annalynn is on sale (Switch), so I picked that up. Immensely fun, looking forward to unlocking more palettes.

    Into The Breach

    It works perfectly with just touch controls. Eden emulator runs the Switch version perfectly on my phone. I hadn’t really played the game properly before (would just die quickly and not know how to proceed). Now I’m starting to get the hang of it and can play it for brief gaps in my day now that it is on my phone.

    Just finished Ico. Heard it was really influential. Overall I really liked it, though it did make me appreciate the improvements in game design that have happened in the last 20 years

      Played it before. Most non-horror horror game I’ve played yet. Pretty good though.

      Also the extra scene at the ending from the remaster is very sweet, pun intended.

    Mainly Balatro… I got the (remaster) of the original Fable on Steam, because they’re working on a new one. It’s interesting but failed to save correctly so i haven’t gotten back into it for a few days.

    I‘ve finished Neon White and I honestly think the hell rushes (especially with level shuffle) is where the game shines the most. I could‘ve saved myself some time skipping all of the story and wouldn‘t have missed out on anything IMO lol

      I’ve never been good at Tetris. My wife, on the other hand, used to do competitions. We’ve played Tetris duel or whatever it’s called (the two player competitive one) and she completely destroyed me every time.

        I’m not good at it either, but I like playing it anyway. Sometimes I watch the pros play on the ClassicTetris YouTube channel. It’s nice to watch, I’ll never reach that level but I’m okay with that.

          There’s a Tetris clone you can play in the Linux terminal, I’ve messed around with before. Pretty fun. I can’t remember what it’s called now but I’d recommend looking it up if you like Tetris. It’s pretty cool.

    Stardew Valley. I needed something kid friendly and I’ve ran out of rally games so I decided it’s time to check out what has been added since I last played it when it released. I know it’s had some big updates but I’ve never paid attention to what the updates have been about, so there’s a bit of wonder going into the game. There are already moments where I’ve gone “I don’t remember this being in the game”.
