I wasn't expecting Castlevania Puzzle to have Metroidvania and RPG elements to it. Oh, and the Windows Phone emulator for Android works really well.

Moon looks great tonight

I tried out the Super Yooka-Laylee Kart test. I didn't get on with the handling and, while it visually looks nice, all the extra graphical flair and warping just made me feel nauseous, and I've only encountered motion sickness in two or three games.

Wrong. It's two of the best games on N64.

In Colosseum you play as someone a bit older, who has just ditched the criminal organisation he worked for. Then it's back to a nameless kid for the sequel

Decided to check out the Amiga version of Castlevania and there's some interesting designs, especially Dracula's second form.

Another late night walk as it's too warm to do it any earlier.

Work van has no AC so it's windows fully open to get blasted by the wind .

Lovely skies

I played Art Society, a really fun bidding and tile laying game.

Call me crazy, but I'm enjoying the Bonus Mode in Dawn of Sorrow even more than the main mode. All three characters feel great to play as and they all have their uses.

Polygon Studio is highly recommended, it contains a wonderful exploration game where you find parts for your vehicle which lets you explore more areas. It also has a minigame which is the first Wario Ware game.

Always interesting how the Wii could get a unique game, a downgraded HD version, or a shared separate PS2 version. Then you get interesting cases like Quantum of Solace where the game had a very different PS2 version, but the Wii still got a port of the HD version.

Castlevania games are amazing until you hit a point with ridiculous grinding, like killing the same enemy again and again until large drop something

I had bagel burgers with man n cheese and slaw for tea today and I didn't realise what day it was until after I ate it.

My current Castlevania tier list.

V-Tetris!

Wiz N Liz. I have no idea if Microsoft (via the developer Blizzard) or Sony (via the publisher Psygnosis)

I own a Virtual Boy game but I'll never own a Virtual Boy. On top of that, I have barely any retro games.

Rugrats: Adventure in Gameland A 2D platformer made for the NES then given an HD makeover. It has bad co-op and annoying level design. (Read full review)

Dusting off the Switch so it's all up to date (got my partner a game for her birthday tomorrow).

I've played Carcassonne in Carcassonne and Snowdonia in Snowdonia. I'd love to play Isle of Skye on the Isle of Skye.

If you want to try something really different... the GameCom version, which is somehow both utterly horrible and extremely impressive.

I do like how GBA games look on the Steam Deck

Mine was a birthday present.

Good afternoon !

Fine, I'll check out Symphony of the Night and see what all the fuss is about

That's an amazing choice of a large jacket potato, Tesco staff member.

Remember when he made up a fake Earthworm Jim 4 game in order to help his buddy Tommy Tallarico with is Intellivision Amico scam (which backfired so much they sold their name and all their IPs). Interplay had zero involvement and it was never actually licenced (which is why it vanished so quickly).
