Picross (DS)
Sep 19th
I spent over an hour on a single puzzle last night. Goodness, it was tricky. And then I had to go back and do it again because I didn’t get the pretty animated picture.

I made some nice pictures of sea creatures. Hardly compares to Mercenaries in the excitement stakes, does it?

The DS charger I bought a couple of weeks ago died yesterday, so I had to rush out to Maidstone this morning and pick up a replacement. Stupid chargers. Anyway, once I got home I played a little Picross. More animals. Had to get the wife’s help on one of the puzzles and kept making mistakes on another one. Shameful, really.

Despite what I said I played this for a while, but turned it off without completing any episodes. I must stop playing. It’s not fun and I’m not even getting any “Yes! Nailed it!” moments any more.
Mr Driller: Drill Spirits (DS)
Sep 11th
N+ seems to have made me rubbish at Mr Driller. I was trying to 1,500m stage and kept dying stupid deaths. Didn’t really get anywhere at all. Still, it’s Mr Driller, so it’s not like I didn’t enjoy myself.

So, I hadn’t quite finished everything in this game. There are some extra Atari Bonus levels you can only unlock with a code. I used the code and now wish I hadn’t bothered, as some of the Atari levels are stupidly difficult. I thought I’d seen difficult levels already, looks like I was wrong.
I don’t think I’ll bother trying to finish off this set, which will leave the game in an annoying state where I’ve completed it, but haven’t really.

Ack! I thought I’d complete it, but after finishing episode 39 five more episodes were unlocked. I’ve had a go of all them. One was easy, but all the rest have a mix of incredibly easy and incredibly difficult levels.

Just episode 39 left to do now. I hope it isn’t too hard. The previous few have been fairly easy – except for level 38-4, which was horrid.
