Still playing Paper Mario . Finished Chapter 1, currently in Chapter 2. Let's see how much further I can get over this weekend.

Also playing some Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, trying to get all the trophies. Only playing it once a while, so it is going to take a long while.

What about all of you? What have you been playing?

Playing... Picross S5?!

Not exactly the kind of game people would expect me to be playing given my posting history, but I do enjoy those games and often use them as a palate cleanser when a need a break from my usual RPGs/VNs.

Current status: Picross 150/150, Mega Picross 140/150, Color Picross: 10/30, Clip Picross: 0/150, Extra: 0/5.

I won't necessarily wait until I finish this one before starting another game, in particular because I have an extended 4-day holiday which is helping me relax and get my head back in a good state for gaming, but I'll tell you how things went next week.

Did you just did all those puzzles in a week? I am always playing a Picross games, by which I mean I start the next one as soon as I finish one, but I play a puzzle here and a puzzle there, taking many months to finish one game. I think I started soon after Picross S released, and I am still at Picross S4. There are so constant for me, I don't even mention them in my Currently Playing.

Also, how long does it take you to finish a whole Picross game? Number of hours taking me to finish these games is embarrassingly high.

No, I do same you do and always have one Picross game "unfinished" and go through it slowly. This week however I was not in the mood for playing other stuff so I did a huge batch of puzzles, I think it was close to 100.

Also, how long does it take you to finish a whole Picross game? Number of hours taking me to finish these games is embarrassingly high.

The games show a clock with the total time once you finish all puzzles, I just checked and it took me 25-30h to complete each of them. I've finished S1-S4 and also the Genesis/Master System one.

Wow, 100 puzzles are a lot.

My crrent status: Picross 117/150, Mega Picross 115/150, Color Picross: 0/30, Clip Picross: 113/150, Extra: 0/5.

I used to finish one mode before moving to next, but changed it up a bit this time. I do a page or sometimes just a row of Picross then move to Mega Picross, and when I am caught up move back to Picross. Enjoying it a lot more like this.

As for Clip Picross, I am doing them as soon as they come up.

I've only finished S1-S3, and since I deleted them, can't check their time, but as per my Switch profile, I am already over 30 hours for S4.
