What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Calico (Switch)

October 10th, 2023

I still feel really out of sorts and nervous today, so this won't be a very big post. I played Calico some more to relax last night, and it was an okay temporary solution. The cooking mechanics, where you become small and toss stuff into a cauldron, are cute, so my game time last night was centered on making cookies.

I made even more Halloween event headway in Pikmin Bloom yesterday, too, but am going to focus on just boosting my steps for the week rather than clearing event goals for today. I don't want to worry about setting up flower planting paths on my office breaks.

I couldn't get myself to go to bed without "finishing something" last night, either, so I built this quick Ali Express building block plant. It was a blind bag item when I ordered it, so the coffee cup flowerpot being labeled for October meant that I did want to build it this month. It was easy to build, and I think it looks decent, if not a bit mysterious.

Today will be another quick post, since I got started later than I should have. I restarted Calico last night, a cat cafe and chatting with neighbors sim that I'd bought and played with a little when it first came out. It was really buggy then, but it's gotten a few patches, so I wanted to check it out again. Plus, I'm not very energetic lately, so it seemed good to pick a laid back game for this month. Last night, I didn't do much more than make my character, but it is ok to move forward slowly.
