Well, I’m back! It has been a long and weird month, but after a little trip to Italy for Carnevale and family stuff, I am home with the cat and a giant bag of kimchi and trying to get all the pizza/pasta out of my system. I’m feeling very carb-y. Also I’m a year older…

Apologies for my absence; work has been difficult and I’m currently partaking in the Global Game Jam (my first!). It was not easy breaking myself out of my little Animal Crossing update binge, but I finally got back to my Crystal version play through. Where we left off, I was kicking Rocket Grunts out of…

I don’t really want to be taking a lot of breaks from Crystal version, but it is taking me a little longer to beat it than I hoped it would. And the distractions keep coming with so many other things are going on at work and home, but especially with Nintendo. Pokémon is turning 30…

Returning to the Pokémon play through: out of the grind, but not quite in the clear. It is hard to get all the Pokémon you can, level up the ones you need to evolve rather than catch, and also keep to level with the gyms. I really feel like I’m not getting nearly enough Exp.…

I’m taking a break this week from writing about my Pokémon Crystal Version progress firstly to give myself a little room to breathe and get further along in the game but also, very importantly, so that I could spend some time with my husband playing games. A Family that Games Together. Uh. Whatever. I am…

Happy New Year! In between work, I’ve been able to play a bit of Crystal. On Tuesday we left off with me really entering what I would refer to as the ‘mid-game’: my party is into lvl. 20, I have half of the badges (well, half of the Johto badges), and nearly 80 Pokémon. Growth…

More Pokémon Crystal, and we got pretty far this week despite playing a lot of The Long Dark (’tis the season. Actually it’s hard to say that here because it doesn’t snow or even really get cold in London. But you know). Writing this up on Saturday (I’ll write more on Tuesday when I do…

Picking up where we left off last week, now that I have had a little more time to play (but not much- my work hours have been insane), we have finally reached the beautiful Goldenrod City. Goldenrod City is one of my favorite locations in the Pokemon world. It has a pretty nice layout, the…

After weeks of old posts, I am rested and mostly no-longer jetlagged. Actually, that’s a complete lie. But I have managed to play some games in between my 10 hour sleeps and 12 hour work days. During my trip to Japan this November, my husband and I spent quite a bit of time looking at…

Old post: 2023.06.13 Tears of the Kingdom I think it’s pretty obvious what I’m playing tonight: why, yes, it’s Tears of the Kingdom Unfortunately, I got a new job sort of recently which is a little demanding, so I haven’t played as much as I would have liked to this last month. Additionally, my husband…
