I didn’t want to post a status update because I played so much during the past two weeks and yet made so little progress.
Only two games beaten, both are for the monthly theme.

• Crystals of Time
  

  7 hours playtime

  no achievements

• Life Is Strange
  

  33 hours playtime

  48 of 60 achievements

Crystals of Time was one of the worst HOGs I ever played, I couldn’t wait to be done with it. I am probably spoiled by the better looking Artifex Mundi games. The story is meh and there is too much backtracking, they should have added a map for fast travel between locations.
This rock is probably the best part of the game.

I really enjoyed Life is Strange, but I was expecting something good with all the positive reviews. The characters felt real and there were moments where I had to take a break and think about the choices I was about to make.
I am replaying it for the missing achievements and to see what happens when I choose different routes.

The Bridge is a sg win that I started playing for the monthly theme. It’s a physics puzzle game. The first four chapters were relatively easy and I figured out the solutions to everything except the last two in chapter four. But the “mirrored” chapters are a pain in the ass. I can’t pass the first one even with a guide, I have to use momentum to slide a damn ball on a certain platform. I’m just not good with games that require me to press a button in a specific moment. No platformers and first person shooters for me.
This is not my idea of fun and I might give up on it. Sorry :(

I started playing Brothers to try out our new big ass tv. I didn’t make it far in the game (mines), but it’s really good so far, even for someone who sucks at platformers like me. Beautiful world and fairly easy puzzles. Too bad it can’t be played with two controllers.

Still grinding for achievements in Stardew Valley. I managed to beat Journey of the Prairie King. But wait, there’s more. I also have to beat the game without dying and that is gonna be extremely difficult.
Also, I married Alex and I have no ragrets.

I was dying to play a tower defense game after a discussion I had with someone in a giveaway for the second game, so I picked up Kingdom Rush. I had to change difficulty to the easiest, this game is really challenging.

Abandoned games:

• Time Gentlemen, Please!
  

  1 minute playtime

  no achievements

• Ben There, Dan That!
  

  48 minutes playtime

  no achievements

Ben and Dan feel like a dumber version of Beavis and Butthead. I tried to play one of the games for the monthly theme but my eyesight is bad and couldn’t make it run in full screen. Did I mention it was dumb?
I won’t be wasting my time with these games especially if there are no achievements.
