What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Jigsaw Puzzle- Anime Girls (Lenovo Legion Go)

October 14th, 2025

No one came to fix my internet yesterday, but it came back at the very moment my maintenance appointment was scheduled. I'm sure I should be mad about this, somehow, but since the days I didn't have service are getting knocked off my monthly bill, I don't feel scammed or anything. My choice is to shrug this off as kind of funny and get on with my life.

I was too lazy to get all my page updates and new game pages set up last night. Since I had a really early blood test this morning, I regretted this tonight, but got it done anyway. Unfortunately, I also did a decent amount of gaming yesterday!

The niftiest thing I played yesterday was Sanrio Shanghai, a mahjong solitaire game for the SNES featuring some extremely cute Sanrio tilesets! It was very easy to clear all available boards, as this is a kid's game. I liked seeing all the Keroppi and Hangyodon characters Sanrio was pushing in the mid-90s, though, and it had some good tile matching music, too! I also liked that, when I was playing the 24-tile layout over and over again like a lunatic, there was a one screen maze or "spot the tile without a partner" minigame every few levels. As an adult, this is very easy and simple, but if I'd had this in grade school, I would have loved it. It's bright, cheery, and well made.

It was a lot more utilitarian, but I also finished Jigsaw Puzzle- Anime Girls. This was fine for what it was. It was also easy, but I paid an incredibly low amount for it in a bundle and it worked decently. I really like jigsaw puzzles, so I was pleased with this. There's several more games from this bundle to go!

Least eventfully, I played a few rounds of Vampire Survivors, too. Since it uses Steam cloud saves, I was afraid to play it and mess up my save file when the internet was down. It was a lot of fun to get back to it!

Last night, I did not play Sega Saturn. I watched bargain DVDs of Pokemom movies and then, realizing I could play Steam games offline, proceeded to buzz through half of Jigsaw Puzzles-Anime Girls. It is a janky little game where the puzzles have been tossed into a template that's still labeled for photos of European scenery, but it does the job as far as virtual jigsaw puzzles go.
