Pokemon Diamond (DS)
Apr 28th
So, I got my second gym badge, hooray.
I also dipped a tow into the online trading scene. Well, I’ve put up my low-level Zubat Batpants and asked for a Skuntank in return. Somehow, somehow, I don’t think I’ll get any takers.
Pokemon Diamond (DS)
Apr 25th
So, I choose the little penguin guy as my first Pokemon and I’m quite happy with the choice. Though I am currently wanting to evolve a Magikarp, which means I’ll have two water-based Pokemon in my main team, which isn’t a very good idea. Hmm. I am musing.
It’s just Pokemon… again. But it’s also just better enough to not feel like a waste.
Puzzle Quest (DS)
Apr 7th
Lots of play this afternoon.
I’ve become a knight of some sort, which boosted my morale, and I’ve got some nice new items.
Ah! There’s the microwave!
Puzzle Quest (DS)
Apr 1st
Hmm.
Turn-based, two-player Bejewelled/Zoo Keeper clone + RPG elements = addiction.
There’s not a lot of story, no exploration, mostly just text menus and battling. But it works.

My wife’s got back into this and got stuck on a puzzle so I tried to help, but couldn’t. (She got it later on.)

I got past my block and now I’m pretty much flying. I’m sure I’ll hit another wall, but I’ve been dispatching the second set of puzzles in about four minutes each.

Whoa! I was getting through the puzzles okay, but then got to about number twelve and it has no zero squares, so I have no idea where to start. New techniques needed – soon!
Sam & Max Hit The Road (DS)
Mar 22nd
More of a tech-test than a play session, but I managed to get it working and watched the initial cut scene and then talked to Max in the first room. Hooray for emulation!
