What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Hidden Cats: Spooky (Lenovo Legion Go)

October 19th, 2025

Yesterday afternoon, I sat down for an hour or so to just play through some hidden cats games. I was in the mood for it, and would have played more than five were it not for the mess that it has made this blog for today. It was a good amount, though!

I'll start with the three that felt like the same game chopped into pieces: Hidden Cats: Spooky, Hidden Cats: Halloween, and Hidden Cats: Haunted Mansion. They all had the same color scheme and very similar, if not the same music. I also think I played them most difficult to easiest, which made the experience feel strange.. I got these so cheaply in a bundle that I'm mystified as to why these weren't just strung together into one game. Around Christmas, I'll be dipping back into this series, though, and I'm curious to see if the three winter games are the same way.

From there, I played Hidden Cosmo Cats, which isn't technically a Halloween game. It had a big monster, though, so I'm counting it. The little cats are certainly braver about this whole thing than I would be.

The last and best hidden animals game I played yesterday was Hidden Capybaras with Oranges and Pumpkins: Spooky Halloween Edition. Even though this was more of a hidden capybaras game, it did have five high quality hidden cats to find. This game looked nice, had some nice smaller sets of hidden objects to find, and wasn't too lazy about hiding the capybaras. It was solid, as far as these things go!

I also played some more normal games yesterday, because I was unproductive yesterday! I tackled another grand prix in Mario Kart World, unlocking Donkey Kong's single alternate outfit and getting Daisy unlocked as a driver. It was a satisfying play session.

I tried Gunbird, too, which was a very entertaining shooter! It's set to 3 credits by default, which I left as is. I wasn't able to get to the end that way, even on the easiest difficulty, but I'll get there eventually.

My Vampire Survivors session for the night was really excellent, too! I got three or four unlocks, which I was happy with, and finally cracked the code on how to get to level 80 on the inverse levels. It made me feel very smart and talented, when in fact, the key was just reading character skills before selecting them. A victory is a victory, though.
