Getting my daughter Slime Rancher and Overcooked: Gourmet Edition for her birthday. She turns eight at midnight. So getting them downloaded now to be ready for her.
-
We got her the premium Stealth Elf for Skylanders as well. But she will get that tomorrow.
-
Been playing Overcooked today.
-
Playing the original Ankh
-
Played some Stardew Valley over the weekend and part of the Legacy of the Void expansion.
-
Been playing Silverfall. It's setting up to be a decent story, but I'm still getting out of the starting area, lol. The gameplay feels a bit strange to someone coming from games like WoW.
One thing that's aggravating if you don't find the guy to buy "life insurance" from... When you die, you lose all your gear and have to go back to where you died to get it back... meanwhile everything has respawned again. It's an interesting game mechanic I've never come across.

We played a bit of Overcooked as a family. Now my eldest is playing Ankh: Anniversary Edition on her own.
-
Now that I've figured out how to not die quite so easily, Silvervall is turning out to be kinda fun.

Isn't that similar to Dungeon Siege? Do you find it better, worse, different?

Oh, it's a classic. But it's pretty basic - hack and slash with an RPG theme. All top down action.

Ah, I gotcha This one has a good story and is definitely an RPG. It can be first person, but I don't like not being able to see behind me, lol. My camera stays at mostly top down / 45 degree angle or something like that.

I think The Bard's Tale (the new one, not the original from the 1980s) is in a similar vein.

Normally, mobile games flat out suck. Bard's Tale is one of the very few exceptions (despite it's not a mobile-only game, but the remake was first released for Android AFAIK).

The remake predated Android significantly. It is from like 2003, I think. It was just re-released on Android after people remembered that it had been on PC.

Really? Didn't know. But a great game anyway. Not exactly Baldurs Gate, but still fun to play.
