Just going through some games, while I'm recovering from writer's block. Hoping my "vacation" will give me more time to myself.

Another Crab's Treasure: I enjoyed most of my time in this. (Cheeseball story aside.) The end game is very stretched out, and I didn’t find the dialogue particularly funny as every Youtuber/reviewer claimed. But I do think its accessibility options are how all games should be adjusting difficulty within your game. (Giving you ways to make certain things easier, harder, and amusing extras like giving your character a gun.) Made the terrible camera in boss fights (and its glitches) more forgivable.

Moonlight Pulse: It’s a decent Metroidvania that made me care enough about the characters to refight the final boss. (Who permanently kills the members of your party.) And its character switching gimmick is flawed, but it’s probably the best I’ve seen the gimmick done thus far. It’s probably ranked somewhere in the middle of all the Metroidvanias that I’ve played.
 
Master Key: Imagine playing a Zelda game without a story, good puzzle design, and combat without an ability to dodge/block. And that’s going to be the vast majority of your time in this. It’s a game too obscure for its own good. And many of its vital upgrades are given to you through grinding for money. Got to the “end game” and couldn’t even find a direct walkthrough on where to get a particular item that you need to complete the remainder of the content. So I gave up. (Besides its four decent bosses, it wasn’t particularly fun anyhow.)

The Last Campfire: The first world of levels is a lot like Monument Valley, but with a ten year old girl narrating the obvious to you ad-nauseam. The second world was “find the puzzles in our puzzle game” and it was boring the hell out of me. 

Small Saga: An enjoyable romp that is written by a teenage Redditor. Far too easy, but it was engaging enough to complete.

Plants Vs Zombies 2: It’s a decent multiplayer game. (In a sea of way worse things to spend your time on.) But its characters are very unbalanced, the gameplay is occasionally buggy, and it’s made by EA. (So there’s lots of things to spend your money on.)
