What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Hidden Catch M (Android)

March 24th, 2023

Last night, I got trapped in a loop of extremely difficult and exhausting late work, so I felt really awful when I clocked out. I ate some frozen food mildly fancied up and some fruit, but all I could manage was just to stare at stuff. It seemed like I could take coloring, though, so I printed up a picture off the internet and sat down with some cheap markers to color.

Bottom of the line markers and bulk buy printer paper are not great art supplies, nor is the fidelity of lineart on coloring page dumping grounds professional grade. I'm posting my little Amy Rose here, though, because she's gaming adjacent, came out well despite the limits of the medium, and because sharing gives additional purpose to those 90 minutes of totally zoning out. I might put her on my fridge because I'm a really talented lady.

I also played Hidden Catch M for a few minutes because it was a path of least resistance I could easily follow. It's still not all that much fun.

My Saturday work was cancelled for tomorrow, so I'm feeling somewhat better about today than I might otherwise. I hope all of you out there have something not so bad ahead, too.

I dodged late work yesterday, but was still so tired afterwards that I didn't have the energy to take on Dragon Quest X Offline. I did get some errands run, though, and did a tiny bit of crafts, which felt okay.

I also turned on Pikmin Bloom for the first time in a good while. Even though I didn't accomplish anything, it's fun to have a little game running beside me as I try to exercise more. It'll still be frustrating that it just flat out won't count all my steps, I'm guessing, but that's how it goes.

Before bed, I felt too scrambled to sleep right away, so I went to my phone's Instant Play shop and tried a free game called Hidden Catch M. I respect that it was actually challenging, but it was a spot-the-difference game, not a hidden object game as the title made it sound like it was! Absolute rubbish. That being said, while it wasn't what I wanted, it was fine. I just don't really like spot-the-difference games, so even though this is cute, I probably won't play it again.
