August report

I been too lazy to write a post till now yet again. I have beaten quite a few games in August, just didnt bother to 100% them … yet.

Completed SG wins

Hero of the Kingdom
Playtime: 5.9 hours
Achievements: 38 of 38 (100%)
Review: It is not terrible, just really really easy, causal and boring. Unless you want some mindless fetch quest clicking for a few hours I would skip it. I would rather play a full on point and click or hidden object game instead. Linux version of the game works without any issues.

100$
Playtime: 1.4 hours
Achievements: 100 of 100 (100%)
Review: Is it an absolutely terrible sliding puzzle game, especially for 0,99€? No, surprisingly not. Is it good enough for a positive review? Also no. The UI and graphics (except for the drawn one, those are actually quite nice) are way too bad for that and a couple of levels are pretty frustrating as they require quite precise timings. Works without any issue on Linux with Proton (9.0-4).

Achievements: 35 of 35 (100%)
Review: A really fun and kinda silly choose your own adventure Telltale game set in the Borderlands universe. I honestly enjoyed it pretty much every minute of it except finding the ending dragging on for a little bit too long. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-4).

January report

I haven’t beaten enough SG wins to be on track to complete 50% of them by the end of the year, however I beaten some so I guess at least it is progress. In the end I got stuck on trying to 100% Invaders Tower Defense Online. If anyone got any advice for that one or wants to do the online achievement together let me know.

Review: An absolutely fantastic colony sim where you are trying to help a bunch of cute beavers droughts and bad water floods. You gotta build up food production, deal with water supply, build up industry, entertainment, energy production,... and you can pick between 2 different factions of beavers. It is still in early access, but it does seem to get updated regularly and I am looking forward to play it more. Works fine on Linux with Proton (9.0-4).

Goodbye 2024

Happy New Year everyone! :)

This year I have completed 68 games (not counting simply beaten games here, so close to having a funny number too :( ) which is 29 games less than last year. 2024 was a great year, just maybe not for gaming. I did however hit 1200 games completed in total which is a pretty good achievement. Hopefully 2025 will be a bit better in that respect.

Goal I had for 2024

I had no goal this time around :)

Goal for 2025

I would like to have 50% of my SG wins completed (currently 39%). This would mean completing 131 amount of wins without winning anything else at all which I am not sure its even remotely realistic, but I will try. Having a goal should make me a bit more motivated completing more wins I hope.

December report

I am a day early with the end of month reviews, but I am not planing to play anymore games this year and I will be in Italy for new years that I thought I might as well get it done now.

Garden Life: A Cozy Simulator
Playtime: 32.9 hours
Achievements: 37 of 37 (100%)
Review: It is an ok, chill flower gardening game. It however has some issues: the plant limit is way too low, the amount of space you have to actually plant things is way too small, you only have flower you can plant, no bushes, tress, vegetables or any other plants, inventory management is not ideal, there is no way to mark what plants are which once they are planted, the plant book is just annoying to use. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton.

Achievements: 54 of 54 (100%)
Review: A really fun co-op (you can also play single player, but that is a lot less fun) cooking game with a bunch of levels and decent amount of different food to cook. It has some bugs here and there but overall it is a great time with 1-3 other friends and I would highly recommend it, just be sure to expect some yelling. And if you enjoy the base game I would definitely also recommend picking up the season pass. Linux version works without any issues.
Hidden Cats in Berlin
Playtime: 1.5 hours
Achievements: 61 of 61 (100%)
Review: A cute hidden object game with great art where to have to find 900+ hidden objects (mainly cats) across a main and 7 bonus levels. On the main level each section gets colored as you find all the cats in it which is really satisfying to see. On the bonus levels also get colored, but only once you finish the whole level. Works without any issues on Linux with Proton (9.0-3).
A Tower Full of Cats
Playtime: 3.7 hours
Achievements: 70 of 70 (100%)
Review: A cute game where you have to find 1400+ cats scattered around a tower. Some are hidden in plain sight, for some you have to interact with items for them to show up. In addition there is also some other items (bolts and nuts). Has 2 issues: there is sometimes no indication as to which items you can interact with and on Linux you can not full mute the music/sounds in fullscreen. Except for that the Linux version of the game works fine.
