I shouldn't need a journal and a pen to enjoy a game. That should be a feature in the game itself if such a thing is required

I don't think I ever had ALL my timeline basically threatening me to play this game 😅

I mean, it happened with Outer Wilds (and a certain card game with "if"), but in a span of several months/years, not at launch.

I am relieved that the community is doing its job. Balatro, Blue Prince, Obra Dinn, Animal Well, Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, Outer Wilds.... When a game is special, we have to talk about it. Puzzle games in particular lend themselves to discussion and discovery.

Love the indie love.

Keep being a badass, @localthunk.bsky.social.

It’s next once I finish up South of Midnight.

Ain’t buying a thing old man (it’s free on PlayStation)

Only 10 days in, and I already have trouble sleeping thinking about the massive array of clues and connections that are going on in my mind lol

a journal and a pen, you say?

Any friend of Jimbo is a friend of mine.

I'm obsessed with it!

amezzeray.bsky.social•47 days ago

I started this last night and I shot you not, my early impression was "I feel like I did when I first started playing Balatro".

I shall henceforth use your message to get people to try it!

Would the Windows notepad app do instead?

I had never heard of this game but I tried it on your recommendation and I can already tell it's going to consume all my free time. Thank you.

Looking forward to it! It's sitting there installed, just taunting me as I "work" or whatever all day 🙄

Tell me more

I'm not a native English speaker. My English isn't the worst, but I've heard that some puzzles can only be solved through puns and polysemy. Is this true?

Yes

Hi your game ruined my life / saved my sanity

wilzax.website•48 days ago

Video games where it's actually just a giant puzzle for me to solve to unlock the narrative are the best. Return of the Obra Dinn and Outer Wilds have been begging for more brothers in their genre

Oooh‌… never heard of it, but that sounds interesting. Reminds me of the old Adventure days where you had a stack of paper you lost until you played again…

I really enjoyed it but the post game content is very obscure and gated behind quite a bit of RNG. Still fun, but was hoping finish a few runs would reduce the variance, not lean into it even more.
