January 2026 wasn’t a huge month for new to me games, though the ones I did play were very fun. That may change in February, though, since a friend of mine has bought a few games I’ve never played, so we’ll get some of… Continue Reading “New to Me – January 2026”

September has been a weird month. School has started again, so work has been busy. I just haven’t really felt up to writing anything, but I don’t usually let that get in the way of doing at least this post. However, things have just… Continue Reading “New to Me – August 2022”

It’s the end of the year 2021 (or it was when I played these games, anyway). Having been able to go to game days again since August 2021, it was nice to have a bunch of new to me games to play each month!… Continue Reading “New to Me – December 2021”
