Update 141: January 2025

January is already over O_o New years resolution is to play as many old games (released in or before 2014) as I can. We’ll see how I will fare with that goal. Oldest I did in January was from 2013, LEGO® MARVEL Super Heroes and one from 2014, Rollers of the Realm.

Half-Life 2

Really liked the game. Though be warned it is a game about dealing with the loss of a loved one, so be prepared to deal with that.

Interesting idea for a game. Sometimes it could have been better explained what they expected you to do.

Here are the games I'm currently working on. Reviews will follow once I'm done with the games:
I've won 7 games and got a late xmas gift and a game I supported on Kickstarter released their full version. I've beaten 7 games, so that makes a total of +2 for the month of January. So my yearly count is at +2 games. I also have beaten 2 games that are at least 10+ years old, so my count on beaten old games is at +2 for the year

Lost Words is a beautiful little game, and a bit sad too..

Yuletide Legends: Who Framed Santa Claus I completed this christmas and I was actually impressed with it in a way, it felt very christmas-y :D
