This week was mostly just Donkey Kong Bananza

Couldn't play as much as I wanted to, but have reached the 3rd world, and am about half-way through that too. I am going slowly by collect 100% stuff in each world, though mainly focusing on Bananas.

Still, most of the time is spent just moving around smashing through stuff.

For the times when my Switch 2 is hijacked by the little ones, I have started AI: The Somnium Files , it's a detective VN / adventure game. It was on my wishlist for a while, and with 3rd one releasing recently decided to finally give it a try.

Investigation works somewhat like in Phoenix Wright, you go to a place, and 'investigate' things / talk to people by clicking on them with the cursor. No moving around or anything. The tone is much darker, but there are some comical dialogues or descriptions. There are also some sequences where you have to move around and interact with some stuff, they are different from the normal investigation parts, but are still part of solving the mystery.

I am only on 3rd day or so, enjoying the game so far.

Certain things are alluding to certain truths already, but I wonder if it's a red herring or they are giving away stuff already.

Didn't play Marvel's Midnight Suns last week because of Bananza, but will be getting back to it on this weekend. Hope to clear Part 2 of the story soon.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

I need to play two more stages of Fire Emblem Engage to finish my flier only run. It's kind of a different game if map hazard are no concern for you or mountains, buildings and so on.

And i play Trails into Reverie. So far awesome

Flier only run sounds fun, but doesn't this become tough when facing enemies which are strong against flying?

there aren't that much bow units in the game. And if they run into you, you always find an opening to kill them first. There are a few parts in the game i use teleporting or the additional live stone of tiki to survive harder moments. It's possible, no even that hard. I play on hard, not maddening, so it's probably a lot harder on maddening (besides the maddening difficulty), especially on the fog of war maps.
