Finished Sparkle 2, it’s a throw-a-ball-to-match-3 kind of puzzle. Very similar to older Zuma game, if someone here remembers that. This was free on PS+ a while back and I have been playing since early 2025. It has around 90 or so levels and I’ll usually play 2-3 here and there. Finally reached the end after about a year and half.
Fun game, if you like this kind of action puzzle games, this was an enjoyable experience.
Most of the time this weekend was spent on Lords of the Fallen (2014). There was objective, but it didn’t say how to get there, so was a bit lost, but beat another another boss and reached the next one, so hopefully I am going in the right direction. This game is much easier than usual soulslikes, I cleared two areas without dying even once, even beat a boss without dying, that never happens for me.
There’s a trophy for each boss, and from that it seems I only have 2 or 3 bosses left. Shouldn’t be too long. Maybe 1 or 2 weekends more. Want to finish this before Yoshi’s release.
Just started the second chapter of Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc Anniversary Edition. Things were fine for a little bit, but something seems to be up now, going to see if we can figure it out…
Played a bit more of Pokémon Pokopia nothing major here.
What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
Did a lot less than gaming than I originally planned. Still on Octopath Traveler II.
My B team, consisting of Castti, Agnea and Partitio feels a lot weaker than the other one, even accounting for the missing fourth character. I probably need to rethink their classes before finishing their final chapters. However, it’s hard to beat the automatic buff and debuff at night in combination with the automatic weakness revealed. I did finish up a lot of other things, like collecting all rusty weapons (all of which are equipped to Hikari for his solo run attempt) or the Commerce chapters from Partitio.
Started Danganronpa and also completed the first chapter with my partner. The first case was super obvious, but I really enjoyed the courtroom gameplay anyway. I expect the others to become increasingly more difficult. I hope nothing bad ever happens to Sakura.
Careful with the spoiler section, I don’t know if the game play out the same each time or if murders differ between playthroughs.
My first case
Leon killed Sayaka, after initially being targeted by her.
I never trusted Sayaka to begin with, she just tried too hard to get my trust. Obviously, she either wanted to murder us or pin it on us.
Her death message could have been a fake out, but the way other characters couldn’t read the letters at first glance made me disregard the possibility. Also, there’s no way anyone but our baseball prodigy could have thrown that glass ball.
I was, however, super surprised by Junkos untimely demise. I’m going in blind, but I’ve seen her referenced quite a lot. Makes me think the murders aren’t always the same, or she’s somehow coming back. Either way, please don’t tell me.
Oh, and there’s definitely a 16th character. You don’t just throw an empty seat in there, it has to be a Chekhov’s Gun.
So I replied to this yesterday, but apparently it didn’t post.
Regarding the spoiler, it was same for me. Not sure it means if the playthrough isn’t affected by our choice, or we just made same choices. It’s also possible first chapter is same and things diverge after that. I guess we will find out.
spoiler about first case
I have same feeling about the 16th seat, and while I felt something was probably going to happen with Sayaka, I thought if anything did happen it would be near the end.
As for deducing who killed her, the message was the first clue, but the shattered glass just proved it. I didn’t realise it would take so much back and forth for everyone else to agree. Also, I thought he would be one of the guy who will stay around till the end.
I feel so lucky to watch and @[email protected] experience this game. I look forward to seeing y’all progress.
I will say that your spoiler observations make me feel like I have a very low level of attention to detail; almost everything I experienced in the game was a massive surprise to me!
I think it will be fun to play while De_Narm is also playing and see what he thinks of the things happening.
Just hope I can keep up with his speed 😁
