Update 149: September 2025

This is the one that I barely survived, but in the end I am still on this earth. Two weeks in the hospital and a new diagnosis of diabetes and my life is completely turned around.

Half-Life 2

Mages of Mystralia

6.5/10

16 of 30 achievements

Mages of Mystralia is a charming adventure game where you play as Zia, a young mage learning to control her powers. The highlight is the clever spellcrafting system that lets you build and customize your own magic — fun, creative, and unique. The story is simple, the world colorful and cozy. Combat can get a bit repetitive, yet experimenting with spells keeps it fresh.

Half-Life 2

Blanc

8/10

Blanc is a cozy, wordless adventure about a lost fawn and wolf cub finding their way home. The hand-drawn art is stunning, and the teamwork-based gameplay feels gentle and heartfelt. Some puzzles can be a bit confusing, but the calm pace and emotional story make it worth it. A short, beautiful journey about friendship and home.

Oh my! Is that why Moony took over for this month?
Hope everything is getting better for you! <3

Yeah, well originally I was supposed to go on vacation, but then I got delivered to ICU with acute diabetic ketoacidosis. So now I’m slowly trying to get back to normal. And Moony was so nice to step in and help out. She’s an angel.

Kyrrelin

Wish you the best in your recovery! <3
Yep, she is. 😇
