Games Beaten

-Death's Door (PS5, PS+)

I appreciate that Death's Door manages to feel different with its setting and story. You play a crow working for a corporation that is basically doing the grim reaper's job. Naturally, something goes awry. The action is fluid and satisfying and there are multiple melee weapons and ranged attack options. The game does a bad job, however, of letting you know that there are secrets to hunt for (and there are quite a few).  Thankfully, the game does not overstay its welcome. I had a good time playing it.

-Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc (Switch)

I played Danganronpa for the story and it delivered on that front. One of the murders I figured out before it was over but largely it kept me guessing through each trial. The graphics seem kind of low budget but they make that part of the style and it works. My only real gripe is I feel the class trials (to discover the murderer) are a little over gamified. Do we really need so many unique mechanics in this? I'd say no, but it's not much of a detriment to the experience.

Games Bought

One of my kids bought Kirby's Dream Buffet (Switch) and they've been playing that a bunch. I tried it out and it's fun but I don't see myself investing a lot of time in it. I snapped up Little Nightmares II (PS5) from PS+ as well as Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions (PS5) in case my kids go through another Harry Potter phase.

Games Being Played

-Gato Roboto (Switch)

This is a delightful little Metroidvania where you play as a cat in a mech suit. Need I saw more?

-Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair (Switch)

I have only just started this, so I haven't gotten through the opening part yet. No one has died yet!

-Piczle Cross: Story of Seasons (Switch)

I have not been playing this as often lately but I am down to the final two pages of puzzles now.

-Destiny 2 (PS5)

Been slowly catching up on the post-Final Shape content.
