I cannot speak to the 2nd, but the first one is highly recommended to anyone who hasn't played it and likes problem solving.

Just get this, which is currently available at a -67% discount:



I suspect Blackhawk will back me up here, that this is an immensely enjoyable game, and a terrific bargain for less than a tenner. It's entirely playable as a solo experience with the help of your trusty robot companion, Bosco, who can shoot bugs, mine minerals for you, and even revive you a few times if you die. But it also has a remarkably friendly, supportive and strong online community. So, even if you don't have any friends who play it, teaming up with randos rarely ever results in a bad experience.

Also, this mighty fine Deep Rock Shanty aptly sums up what makes it so compelling:

Destroyer is EXTREMELY hard as you need to mentally keep a LOT of stuff in your head, but it is also very satisfying when you do manage to sink some u-boats. It's almost like playing "Greyhound" in person.

I wish Everspace 2 would be a LOT cheaper. Ive wanted it since before it released. Used to watch all the dev vids on it.

Thank you Isgrimbot. I had this one recently recommended to me by my daughter's partner, so I bought it half-off (to be started once I'm done with BG3, so like 2024). Cheers!

It's funny that it's still got a 61 critic rating and a 28 user rating. It's no secret that I don't think much of score aggregators to begin with, but when applied to a product like a game that is constantly updated, what relevance it has vanishes after a patch or two. The game that earned those scores seven years ago bears no resemblance to the product for sale now.

Thank you. It’s a lovely work conference in Indianapolis. In mid-October. Maybe next year we can get Juneau in February.

At least it doesn't look like it will snow. Will you have time for any side trips? The museum at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is very cool.

Another interesting stop is the state capital building. When we went you could tour the place on your own, but apparently now you need to be on a guided tour.
