2023 Play List
List of titles I played in 2023. Includes returning and replaying titles. I played a lot of indie games though, so it's not hard to see why my numbers are high. Many of the games Iβve played were on PC (Windows OS and Linux), but a very few were console exclusives on my list.

I was psyched to find out this game turned from commercial to freeware for this version, so I downloaded and played. The only trouble I had was finding all of the collectibles on my second playthrough.

I already beaten the game last December.
Used to plan get a semi-100% (due to one achievement not working), but considering too much grind involved and a very low SHP (50 pts), this isn't worth playing for me anymore.
