ooblets is one of my favorite in this genre. it’s got a great soundtrack, the humor is spot-on, and it’s got an anti-capitalist message.

firewatch is a personal favorite.

“what remains of edith finch” and “gone home.” waiting for the right rainy day to play them.

i love both the physical and digital versions of this game. 🕊️

it’s the dogs! i love dogs, but having them jump through the window destroyed me.

if you want to know how to get back, pick a side (i chose left) and always put torches on that side going down. to come back up, keep the torches on your right. 🔥

the original resident evil. couldn’t even get through the first 15 minutes before i threw the controller across the room. i don’t play scary games anymore, but i love watching other people play!

silent hill was super fun to watch.

my dad bought a switch for his wife recently. neither one of them are “gamers.” i think they only play mario kart!

i’ve poured hours upon hours into this game. it’s just a chill game (if you want it to be), and it’s fun to keep track of stuff to collect, talk to the NPCs, and go fight some baddies occasionally.

assuming “PC” doesn’t count… i’ll be a basic bitch and say nintendo switch. it’s the one i’ve played the most games on.

i tried to play the original about a decade ago and my partner at the time had to dodge me throwing the controller when the dogs jumped through the window. that’s when i knew i wasn’t cut out for playing horror games. (although i enjoy watching other people play them!)

god dammit.

ooblets and fire watch are not difficult or lengthy games, but both were so enjoyable. i think casual games often get the short end of the stick unless there’s some online element a la animal crossing.

these are more rock than chiptune, but very much video game inspired!

this is such a mood. i’m still waiting for the next stardew valley.

back when i was living below the poverty line, fast food got me by in a pinch living in what was otherwise a food desert with no car. 🙃

nowadays it’s more of an occasional indulgence.

gotta get that value menu for the good deals.

i haven’t stopped playing tears of the kingdom since it was released. my partner and i swap the controller back and forth. currently on a mission to collect all the armor and get lots of it upgraded. still haven’t defeated ganon even though we totally could.

“well excuuuuuse me, princess!”

i really love stardew valley for a cozy co-op game. for something a little weirder and darker, crawl is a blast.
