Friday is here again, dear reader, and on this particular Friday you find us a greatly diminished team, as by hook, crook, or coincidence almost all The rooms in the tree house were empty. Indeed a shock. There were at least a few of us left, walking up and down the corridors looking for something to do. Maybe we’ll find some games to play! Who knows? That is my eternal hope, at least.

I still have a few searches around Door of death. Crows, of course, are great. I love how it’s like Dark Souls, but pretty cute? I do not know. I’m having a little trouble switching weapons to my bow, but that’s on me. Plus, I really like what happens when you tap the wooden place signs. I was also tempted by Solar ash, looks like some kind of mix between the fun and the weird.

Let’s come
When Warzone Pacific appeared on the horizon, I really wanted to relax and take a break from the big shooters. I’ve run through countless battlefields and heard the call of duty too many times over the past few weeks, that’s for sure. My plan for the weekend, then: wrap up in a lovely warm blanket (I’ve been battling a cold all week, so a blanket is definitely needed), drink lots of hot chocolate (again, necessary) and dive into some of the indies that are on my radar. Solar Ash’s exciting ice skating got me hooked, but I was also tempted to step into Archvale’s bullet hell. The trailers don’t make either game seem particularly relaxing, but I hope they’re different enough from COD to be the palette cleaner I desperately need.

I’ve been meaning to play it for years, but this weekend I’m finally sitting down with Unsighted. It’s a top-down pixel art Metroidvania, I’ve only just heard great things about it and I can’t wait to get hooked. Stay tuned for more thoughts next week.

My dilemma for this weekend is which body part do I want to destroy for the love of video games. I’ve had a permanent sore throat from doing all the voices in The Great Lawyers Chronicle, and the QTEs heartbeat in House Of Ashes Curator’s Cut makes me palpitations with sheer tension. Whoever says gaming isn’t a physically demanding hobby is clearly just not as invested in their characters as I am.
See? Told you we were an empty nest. But you, dear reader, are you opening your sleeping bag, what are you playing this weekend?
