What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Hidden Cats: Magic Forest (Lenovo Legion Go)

November 16th, 2024

I am having a craft day to try and relax today, so this post is slightly later than normal. I am not super concerned about it, though.

Yesterday, I felt pretty frustrated with Hidden Cats: Magic Forest, so during my lunch break at work, I told myself that if I couldn't find the last cat I'd left off with the night before, I would drop the game. The cat, of course, was just sitting under a tree, waiting to be clicked on. I'm slightly satisfied that I finished this, and up until the last cat, it was pretty laid back and relaxing. The controls kind of sunk it, though, so I'm not sure I really liked it that much overall. Still, it's fine to play a tiny, chill game sometimes.

I absolutely played the crap out of Jujutsu Kaisen: Phantom Parade, too, clearing the map event and trying to level up my party members. The event rewards were pretty nice, so I felt like in terms of the game as a whole, it was worth my time. The "wow, nice job, kids!" ending was so lame it made me laugh, too, which I appreciate.

I'm off to try and finish a couple of small cross stitches and see if I can get a decent feeling of productivity!

Last night, I made myself play Fitness Boxing feat. Hatsune Miku to try and get myself to regain some energy. It didn't work, but it was somewhat fun. I don't feel great when I don't exercise, so I want to get back to playing fitness games.

I played a small hidden object game on Steam called Hidden Cats: Magic Forest for longer than I should have, too. It was relaxing and pretty, but the camera controls were so bad that I thought I was repeatedly getting stuck and crashing the game! I'm almost done with this, but after a few frustrating hours and reading some disheartening "sometimes the counters and hint buttons don't work" community posts on Steam, I don't know if it's worth the trouble.

I am very tired and don't want to get through today, but I have to. I wish the best of luck to all of you in your various endeavors today.
