What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Hero Hours Contract (Switch)

December 14th, 2023

I feel like things are not going great, but as far as this blog goes, I have decided to play a couple little indie games to take a breather from Pokemon: Let's Go Eevee.

No Gravity Games is doing its holiday Switch game giveaway again, and in their blessed generosity, they have granted me a mediocre cat game to rival last year's Strike Force Kitty. This year's is Catlord, a pretty bare bones take on Vampire Survivors. I didn't love Vampire Survivors, but I *do* love cats, so I'll give this at least a few more plays. It seems like it'll be a good game to doze off to.

I also tried Hero Hours Contract last night, an indie game about magical girl labor negotiations that I'd had unplayed in my Switch library for quite a while. It's a strategy RPG about clearing the screen rather than surviving, which is interesting in and of itself, and I eel like I've barely scratched the surface of it. I like the art, too, so I'm hoping to see this one through to the end.

Tomorrow, I have the day off work, but I'm pretty sleepy, so I might not play much tonight.
