Hello Everyone!

This week's post got a bit late due to some personal matters. Sorry about that. As for the games. I did not want to start any big game, and take care of some smaller games that I have been meaning to try for a while, ended up starting multiple games. ๐Ÿ˜ข

  • I have moved The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom to a secondary game, so while I am going to play it here and there, I am not going to focus on it anymore.
  • Playing Carto, it's a beautiful, small, puzzle, indie game. If you have played the board game Carcassonne, you should love it. Basically, you have to solve puzzles by moving the map pieces around (and some other stuff). Highly recommended! It's a very small games, I have done about 60%, going to try to finish it this weekend.
  • I started New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, have been meaning to play it since it released but there was always something else that I wanted to play first, but with Wonder releasing soon, finally started it. I have just cleared the first (Acorn) world. Loving the game and platforming, but not a huge fan of timer in each level. It's usually not a big deal, but when you are going slow, trying to find all secrets, it finished up pretty quickly.
  • Also started Fire Emblem (GBA version) on NSO, and I am enjoying it a lot more than Three Houses, the only other FE game I have played (playing, technically).
  • Finished The Order 1886. A wonderful game that still holds up really well, both gameplay and visuals. But it was too short. A sequel could've been great.

That's all from me. What about you guys? What have you been playing? And what are you planning to play this weekend and beyond? And how are you liking it?

I picked up my switch a couple of weeks ago. First game I picked up was Xenoblade chronicles 3 which has been a lot of fun though i think i picked up to many ganes to quuckly as im starting to fall off at level 17 i have not licked the game up in a few days. Even though at first i was hitting this game hard.l also picked up northgard great rts.

Monster train a rogue like card game where you play monsters and try to defend your crystal as you try to destroy an angel? Story is light but gameplay is so good.

Also got diablo 2 resurrected monster hunter rise and some overwatch 2. I just got the switch and I'm bouncing from thing to thing. It's really got me back into gaming.

Haha, I can understand how you feel. I didn't had PS4, so when I got PS5, I started tons of games at a time, but then I couldn't play any game properly, so I stopped most of the games, and started to focus on one game at a time.

Xenoblade Chronicles can be a tough game to get into, but it's a pretty great game if you end up liking it. It's more of a love or hate game.

These are all great choices, would love to hear from you in future to see where your gaming journey takes you!

Keep having fun!
