Finished Hyrle Warriors: Age of Calamity!
There were some interesting moments in the story, specially near the end, something I never thought I’ll say about a Warriors game.
My final percentage was around 50%. I did pretty much all the side missions in first 4-5 chapters, but didn’t do any of them in the last couple of chapters. As for the “resource” missions thingies, where you just have to give resources to get some upgrade etc. I did as many of those as I could without specifically grinding for their materials. Majority of the uncompleted nodes belonged to these.
There was also post game content, which can unlock a new character, I didn’t go for that, just saw it’s video on YouTube.
Spoilers about some characters:

The characters from future! They were a surprise, didn’t expect them to show up here. Rito one was different though. Didn’t recognise him.
Overall, liked the game, and plan to eventually play both Fire Emblem Warriors and Age of Imprisonment. Not right away though, lots of other games already in my list.
Played more of Dark Souls Remastered.
Game is going good, haven’t gotten stuck anywhere since the Bell Gargoyle boss (pretty much the only place where I was stuck). It doesn’t mean I haven’t died though. Many deaths, many lost souls, but not as much as I was expecting.
I have just reached Anor Londo. Don’t know what it means in grand scheme of things, but I think I should be nearing the half-point.
Played a tiny bit more of Mutant Mudd Collection too. Cleared 4-4 and then got stuck at 5-1. Too many moving things! A moving rock, a flying enemy, a disappearing platform!
Found out that there are also alternate/night version of all levels, where enemies are ghosts and I can’t hit them, but the rest of the level design is same. Going to try those next. Some of those will probably also be pretty difficult. The first level was pretty easy though, but that was the first level.
Didn’t really play Fire Emblem: Three Houses or Cozy Grove this week either.
I have started too many games this time, so trying to finish those I can quickly, before getting back into these.
Weird thing to say right after talking about how many games I have started, but may start Killing Floor 3 this weekend. It was given in PS+ Monthly games this month, and some of the friends are interested, so plan to give it a try over the weekend and see if we like it enough to play it for a while.
This will probably just be a weekend nights game with friends, if we do play it and end up planning to continue it.
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
It’s role-playing day at the house, but two of the kids can’t make it, so we’ve got board games ready to go:
Things in Rings: I’ve this one mentioned before, I think. It’s like Venn diagram, the board games it’s fun to figure out patterns!
Meeple Circus: stack your little wooden animals and acrobats with time and circus music pressures
Unlock!: these escape room board games are only playable once, but I love to experience them with my wife and then give them away. They come in three adventures per box for a shade under forty bucks. Highly recommended!
On the alone front, I’m still grumpy about Octopath Traveler 0 and the game key situation, but there’s a anniversary event in the mobile game it is based on, so I’m not stressing about it too much.
In a professional note, I am using Kahoot! as the scoring system for an ongoing school game for my civics classes. The students are in their fall season now with six “football” teams playing each other double round robin over the ten weeks of the 2nd quarter of school. Since it’s American football-based, I take the top eleven players from each team to calculate their weekly score and post it for the kids the following day. Since the quarter is winding down, I’m working on the next quarter’s game, based on the March Madness tournaments. Getting 160 kids’ data and scores into 32 teams is a game in itself (on one of my favorite sports: Microsoft Excel).
Sounds like a fun day!
My kid’s teacher also used Kahoot for something couple of years ago, they didn’t reuse it so maybe didn’t get a great feedback. It was lower primary though, so kids had different needs.
