What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Ani Idle (Lenovo Legion Go)

November 22nd, 2025

I played as many games yesterday as on Thursday, but it feels much less egregious to write about. I played through a full non-bootleg game on one of my cute Famicom-on-a-chip systems, called Angel. It was only 10 or so minutes long, so I don't feel very accomplished, but it was amusing. It was the classic story of an angel throwing candy, booze, and drugs that speed you up at a mummy, who then must catch all this while avoiding the angel's lightning bolts. The angel seems super rude, honestly, but this did make me wonder more about what madness lies in the "original" games on these systems.

I was back at Paper Apps: Labyrinth again, and hit the game's halfway point! My dice rolls were super unlucky yesterday, so I'm having trouble saving up the gold for a weapons upgrade. I keep dying and losing piles of gold! I'm still having fun, but the final boss might be a bit tedious for me.

I tried a free idle game on Steam called Ani Idle, which is not much of an idle game so far. I don't want my character to die, so I have to be somewhat on top of getting her out of fight loops to rest. It's maybe somewhere between a clicker and a normal RPG.

Past that, I was just doing some driving on my Switch 2. I started Road Trip mode in Kirby Air Riders, which was really fast moving and fantastic! I had a great time zipping through the first set of challenges.

I kept going in Mario Kart World, too, and also had a lovely time there. Right now, I'm focusing in on unlocking all the character outfits, so my updates in this might be a bit uneventful for a while.
