In 'Demon Quest 85,' you play as a high school student who playfully summons demons by choosing food items, music, and companions that will appeal to the demon of interest. These are chosen according to the clues found in a book of demonology and gleaned from conversations with other demons. It is a very quick game and there seem to be many different paths to completion, so it might warrant a few playthroughs. After my first, I can say that this was a fun and genuinely funny Playdate experience. No lie, I laughed out loud. The humor comes from the ridiculous dichotomy of your high school life and your developing relationships with these powerful agents from hell. Great time. Not to be missed if you own a Playdate.

I'm calling this one complete after having played all courses in the base game, finding all lost balls, and completing all scavenger hunts. But there is much play left to be had as it is an addicting online multiplayer game and the DLC course options are many. This is simply a rock solid mini golf game in VR. It works exactly as you want it to and, because, it's in VR, it can go to those fantastic places that make it, in many ways, even better than reality. The art doesn't look great in still images, but alive in VR (in motion and with the lovely in-game music, weather effects, etc.), it really is more captivating than you'd expect of a low-priced miniature golf video game. If you have a platform that runs it, play 'Walkabout Mini Golf.' Hard to imagine anyone being disappointed with it.

Not much here to recommend 'Escape From the Past' over the base game or the first DLC. I preferred the novel (for the series) tropical setting of 'Escape Island' but I think I prefer the variety of puzzle rooms (including a competitive room and a whodunit) in 'Past.' The in-game character art continues to be comically atrocious. And the difficulty has odd spikes and dips but the game remains generally quite easy. The five-key difficulty scale continues to be nonsensically applied to the rooms. Of final note, the title 'Escape From the Past' refers only to this game taking place years before the base game. But nowhere does this feel like a period piece. And there is certainly none of the time travel that the title seems to imply.
