A Cat & His Boy
Game-boy styled, basically a children’s game. Easy to follow story, small map, it’s perfect for gamers starting out, or people who want to reminiscence about the good old days. Was nice until it lasted, but not really an oustanding game because of its own limitations (length, graphics, music), despite being made with lots of care. Was an SG win from Gelweo.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Finished the story, still collecting energy to carry on with postgame stuff. Workload and a recent sickness made it difficult. Also as it often happens with the end of a big RPG, it’s really hard to find one’s place, and return to the game (or go on to a new one). Was an SG win from xxxka.
Firewatch

Really nice almost-walking-sim game, with actual gameplay, and great pacing. There is backstory, there are actual, real time events, there are dialogues, and there’s a reason for doing the rounds. Nice music, beautiful environments. Not an action game by any definition, but it was really nice to play it on the Deck.
Legends of Savvarah: Children of the Sun
store page
Interesting visual novel in a “world” that’s ripe for unreliable narrators and sensitive topics - Rich and plentiful empire in the middle of nowhere; godlike ruler who’s both hated and loved, depending on who you ask; questionable history and vilified outsiders; and a race created to serve, in war as soldiers or as house-slaves. Many achievements for repeated runs and choices, different endings through narrative web and choices. The dev has multiple games in the universe that are supposed to have referential connections maximum, and are standalones. While VN is not my favourite genre at all, the worldbuilding was compelling and got a lot more interesting as I played further - I may look out for the other games too.
Was an SG win from Ateszmadman.
PowerWash Simulator Shrek DLC, Wallace and Gromit DLC
store page
It’s a good way to pass time with my GF, while we listen to a podcast. Not even I’m convinced that Powerwash Simulator is a “good game”, but it’s really good to pass time, if one’s looking for doing that.
Activated games: 3 (of which 2 is SG wins)
bought:
Powerwash Sim DLC x2 - finished
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader pack for Voidfarer and Deluxe content (That OST!)
Bought Core Keeper + Smalland for GF as well for future multiplayer
Bought 5 games for 3€ at Build your own Spring Bundle (2026), which is a big questionable, as I haven’t activated anything yet. But Cape Hideous and The Space-Eating Croc looked interesting and short to balance out the purchase for me quite fast. Eventually they’ll :)

My Statistics 😔
Steamgifts Statistics 😔
A fantastic multiplayer farming game from a Spanish studio! If you’re looking for a game that will keep you hooked for hours, this is the one. It has at least 100 hours of content (if you rush it like I did), but you can easily play much longer without getting bored, and you can play with all your friends at the same time in the same farm. It also includes several improvements over its predecessor that are definitely worth it. And they’re still updating the game! :D

Well, I think I’m doing pretty well o.O I still need to delete a lot of free games from my library, but there are too many D:
Update 15
Super Mario Galaxy movie was absolute cinema, pure joy and whimsy. As for the update, lackluster gaming times for me these months, I have a dissertation to write (how did we get here already???)
Games played:
I want to preface this by saying that I'm not really the target audience for this game, as I do not want to date everything. Being straight the roster is essentially split in half, but even then there was really only 1 man that truly interested me. BUT THEN the fucking game locked me out of his quest, which might have been a bug (?), though either way that's what made me drop it. Sure, some of the others were fun, but not interesting enough to keep me wanting to play (or I already did their storyline). They're often very over the top. And then there's some that made me want to burn the house down fuck you toilet man and shower guy.
Originally, I figured I'd give this game a shot anyway, since I heard it's fun either way and that you can go for friendship and enemy endings as well. The problem is that I found that going for the friendship ending with a character often requires flirting with them or letting them flirt with you, there doesn't always seem to be a good middle ground there, which led me to just skip most of the dialogue from female characters, even if it is well written.
Of course, I think this is a great game for anyone that likes this style of game, especially if you find more characters to go for. The writing is good and the designs are cool for the most part, as far as I've played. Like I said, this simply isn't a game for me, but I think it's solid.
Sam Lake my goat, it's very clearly a Remedy game through and through. On par with the first Alan Wake, though I feel like they switch their strengths. The story here didn't really get me like Alan Wake did, but the gameplay was really well done. I just felt like the hiss was something of a worse version of the dark presence. I wonder though, with Control Resonant coming out soon, if it will also follow Alan Wake 2's footsteps and be incrementally better than its predecessor.
Here, have something from this game that I've been obsessed with: https://youtu.be/SRQGOtBVELo?si=7fXCqxMgjJ_AlKce
Extras:
Pokemon Pokopia has been taking up most of my gaming time this month, still haven’t beaten it tho, since I keep on getting distracted with things to do in it other than the main quest lol. It’s the sort of game that you tell yourself you’ll pick up to play for an hour and then suddenly it’s dark outside and you’re still playing. It really is incredible, the pokemon are soooo cute. This will be the first pokemon game I ever beat and it’s ‘just’ a spinoff, crazy.

Arctic Eggs - For whatever reason, I thought I’d be getting something absurd but ulitmately disturbing, like Mouthwashing. It’s nothing like Mouthwashing. The gameplay took a bit to get used to, and I absolutely HATED it at first (since I was pretty bad at it). Don’t get me wrong, even when I got better, it was still rage-inducing at moments (especially getting the achievement for clearing the final task on hard), but it was satisfying to pull off. The humor is extermely lol so random and unfunny most of the time though. 6/10
Bounty of One - This one is an actualy hard Vampire survivors clone. The main feature is that you have to fully stop moving to shoot at enemies, and it changes up the way these things are played drastically. I got some of the hardest achievement but then they got removed for whatever reason, which sucks. 7/10
This Ain’t Even Poker, Ya Joker - Short idle/clicker game. You progress way too fast, which kinda ruins the whole poijnt. 4/10
Berry Bury Berry - EXTREMELY satisfying gameplay loop with a meh horror plot. I’d play more of it in any form though. 7,5/10
Xenosensory - Short horror-ish clicker game. Satisfying where it counts. 6/10
Space Rock Breaker - Short idle/clicker game. Nothing to write home about, but the stone processing part is really satisfying.
Loan Shark - Pretty interesting and fun short horror story. The UI is pretty bad. Since it’s purely story-driven game, the fishing minigame’s really basic. Wish that wasn’t the case, but oh well. 6,5/10
Fahrenheit - Back when I was a kid and this was released, I used to think that was the coolest shit ever. Now I replayed it and man it’s the dumbest shit ever. Though everything bad here is hilariously so, so it’s not that much of a problem. The stealth segments are still awful. 7/10
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy - Finally completed that one after taking a long pause for a few years. The game’s great. It’s really funny how heavily localized it is for a western audience, despite the fact it’s getting harder and harder to explain obviously japanese motives, especially in the later parts, where they kinda gave up and winged it. Great games anyway. 9,5/10

Did another playthrough of Dispatch to get 100%. Loved that game.
And finished my first PoP game of the newest cycle. I already liked the first part which I got to play on the last cycle and this one didn’t disappoint either.
Didn’t get much done on steam besides that. I blame it on Pokopia.
Pokopia
March 2026
This month a bit more multiplayer fun with co-op games. Also bought No Rest for the Wicked from the same category to wait for release. Fighting against Shredder while waiting for that one.
Finished
Played in 2/3 player co-op. Haven't played Hades but I guess this is poor man's version of it. It was alright, certainly better with friends. Animations are janky and voice acting does not shine.
Provide small but solid amount of fun. Did not try to go deep with strategy but game had its moments.

Report #24 March
Kinda bad month. Started reading one book which kinda ate most of my time. Sadly not the clasical style, some of those more recent small chapter based ones. Probably April will go bad as well as I’m halfway throught the book plus the Easter. Also the weather started to be more nice and some outside work eat again some of my weekend time. Also probably less ETS2/ATS for the following months due to a pause on WOT events, but this might give me a bit more time for other games.
Back to the topic, on the idle side the usual Firestone and surprisingly still Idle Champions. The other 2 kinda left on side since January. Aaaaand for the rest probably a bit NSFW-ish. Starting the month was How to Fix the Future: Book One Demo demo that I installed during the steam February next fest which I didn’t manage to get in time last month. Did one playthrough and kinda skipped along to see a bit of the rest. The demo had 3 chapters of the game(think that patreon version got 7, can’t say that I looked to see if the dev mentioned about what would be included for the steam release of book one). As steam kinda auto removes demos upon uninstall no idea how much time i spent on this one. Probably 5-6-ish hoursWas looking through profile recently played games to compile my post and apparently there the time is still present, got 7.6 hours.. Pretty stuffy compared with the usual steam demo. Won’t go into much details not to inadvertently spoil stuff, but as the title implies some time matters are involved, even thought a bit of the story dump happened in the demo I”m not sure exactly how the game will play out so I’m a bit indecisive about it. Also purchased during spring sale 100 hidden cats and 100 hidden cats 2, as not sure people know, there was a bit of wave back in February about Nukearts registering the hidden cats trademark for game names, some were forced to change name by the beginning of march, meant to buy the game back then but in the forgot, they somehow didn’t got removed/ name changed and ended up buying them during the sale just to be safe as I collect those removed games with cards. Also finished playing them as they go pretty fast and a bit more time to get the cards as I auto idle them to be eligible for boosters. Also a bit of tries to get into those games without much luck, probably will retry soon™ on last two: Lust Manor: Leona’s Secret, Innocent Grape, I drink Sorrel Coffee to reboot reality, but I’m being hunted by Monster Girls and armed agents. Started Lust Trip but haven’t got that much progress. Started and finished Sexorcism: Lust Confession. And close to the end of the month got saved from a double dip(as I purchased game previously on itch) as I managed to win a giveaway for it: Our Red String. A few years back when the game was on just 11 chapters got it on itch and did a playthrough. As now there are 14 chapters total with the steam release wanted to start another playthrough on a different route as the game is branching, but haven’t managed too do much of it. Aaaaaaand that’s kinda all as it already ended up as a big wall of text.

My first ever FMV game, actually quite liked it! The acting is pretty good, the characters are all charming douche bags with their own quirks(except Uncle Marcus, he's just boring), and it's very fun going through all the options and seeing what kinda thing this fucked up family is up to. xD Also Bradley is soooo freaking cute, I actually learnt to make gifs on a whim just so I can post him on tumblr. :D
Just look at this edgy cute lil guy:
I do have to say if you accuse him it's actually pretty fucked up what happens, but also really awesome cuz I didn't expect the game to actually...go there. I like it. :3

What the hell, I played 18 hours of this game in 2 days? After getting the final achievement, I felt like I woke up from a fever dream or something. lol This game is insanely addicting and like other incremental games, the game only really starts until you get automation running, and it feels soooo good seeing the scratch cards fly and your money go up. I played a large chunk of the game muted with my own music like usual, but I gotta say I love the music in this one. Also the fact that music changes to a new one for each catalogue you unlock, add to the variety.
I do have some complaints. First is the fact that one of the accessibility options acts differently from the demo. I bought the game because I liked the demo a lot, and there's 3 different modes to scratch the cards which is awesome btw, I love that devs put that in. The options are click and drag, just drag or the hold option. In the demo, hold makes it so the cursor swings around on its own, you still have to move it since it only covers a certain area, but it works wonderfully. In the actual game it's changed to holding in place and the cursor will go over the square from top left to bottom right. This is a significant nerf and practically non-usable because you have to do it for individual cells, and there's cards containing upward of 20 cells so it's super slow. The other thing is some cells has penalty symbols that you shouldn't scratch, and you can "cheat it"(most likely intentional design) by lightly scratching it and seeing the symbol to determine if you should scratch it. The new hold option is really inflexible in that, so another reason not to use it. I ended up using the just drag option and it's ok, but did put some strain on my wrist.
Second is I'd highly recommend anyone that wants to play it to use an auto-clicker. There's quite a lot of clicking early-mid game which is kinda expected for an incremental game, but it is beyond me how the devs didn't make things truly infinite automatic where the fan that blows cards into processor requires click to charge, albeit just one click to charge it to full but early prestige still require quite a few. The most egregious however is the egg timer, which one click only charge a sliver of the bar, and the upgrade to increase duration of it comes much much later in a run, so to fully utilize the fact that you unlocked it, you have to constantly click it, like every 5 seconds it loses 1 click of charge or something. Thank goodness I used an auto-clicker. lol I also ran into a progression blocking bug that prevented me from clicking the button that finishes the game, which is especially annoying when attempting the "speedrun" achievement. Forum post did help me in solving that one, but I'm surprised such a big bug isn't patched post haste. As a game dev myself, if it were our games, I'd be working overtime to find and fix that. xD
Despite a ton of bashing I still really enjoyed the game. It's quite cheap to pick up, I'm actually happy that it isn't too long. I feel like the novelty might wear off if it's longer? Tho there's a "challenge mode" which was present in the demo but wasn't in the main game so I suppose the devs might update more later down the line. I'll see if I get back to this one or not. c:
Celestial Return Demo

I'm always down for games set in cyberpunk world setting, and I saw this game on kickstarter with amazing art. Since it has a demo why not try it out? I haven't played Disco Elysium myself, but this is heavily inspired by it with the different sides of protagonist like rage and perception etc. There's also monsters called "abstracts" that's wrecking havoc in the city that you're tasked to track down and hunt. I really really like the setting, art style and the writing. The gameplay is pretty neat as well, having to spend dice to do practically any check, unlike other rpgs where you get higher base stat to get easier rolls. The only thing I didn't like is moving in the overworld, it feels weird and takes me out of immersion to have it in 3D, and the movement is tad clunky and slow. I will keep an eye on the game tho, have it on my wishlist and if/when it comes out, might grab it. :3

Crime Scene Cleaner got an Act 2 update hell yeahhhhhhh, I’m enjoying it so much. There’s also a DLC in the making and I’m gonna buy that as soon as it drops, love that game. :3 Just like when Viscera Cleanup Detail 2 comes out I’m gonna buy that immediately as well. It’s been in the making for a couple of years I think? I just really really like cleaning games. :P
I also kinda got into kickstarter? Backed a few projects….which costs quite a bit, especially the Fallen London board game one cuz of the shipping price costing half of the price of my pledge omg why’s it so expensive. Backed that cuz I am playing Fallen London, which is a browser game. Highly recommend it, it’s from the Sunless Sea/Sky folks, and features amazing writing and extensive and interesting world.
