Epistory - Typing Chronicles (steam deck) was in the mood for something different so I dusted off an old save and typed my way to victory. Some exhilarating moments in the typing battles and a cool papercraft aesthetic make for an enjoyable play through 8/10

Minesweeper (iOS) Netflix games has the classic gameplay of minesweeper with a world traveling aesthetic. Has a ton of levels (200+) and extra modes that I never touched. Solid time waster

Alabama Smith in Escape from Pompeii been awhile since my last beat. no better way to get back on the wagon then an airplane seat beat. The touchscreen was abysmal and the gameplay was not much better.

#justbeatit @polykillpodcast.bsky.social Super Mario Maker 2 story mode surprisingly good variety and amount of content with 100ish levels to go through. I’m not much of a level maker but my son loves making troll levels for me.

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit This beat was 20 years in the making. I finally avenged my defeat in my elementary school spelling bee and beat the alphabet. Forced me to play some games I never would have on my own (zombies ate my neighbors) and discover some hidden gems (Ynglet)

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Jenny LeClue Detectivu (switch 2) this puzzle adventure game starts slow but really picks up momentum. The end leaves a lot to be desired but was an enjoyable 10 hours. 7/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Zombies Ate My Neighbors (steam deck) Not a great completion experience, crazy difficulty by way of bad design. I didn’t even kill the final boss, the last neighbor got killed off screen and the exit door appeared but I got credits anyway lol.

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Unravel (steam deck) gorgeous adventure game filled to the brim with creative platforming the last level some of the mechanics fall apart but otherwise a fun play through 7.5/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Ynglet (steam deck) Visually this game looks like your swimming around in a Petri dish. Once your comfortable with the movement this game rules. short experience but the way the music matches the gameplay and how fluid the movement is makes this special 8/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Quake (steam deck) another series off my list of shame. Whoever designed those floating squid enemies deserves a special place in hell 8/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Venba (steam deck) this game manages to tell a touching story in a short runtime light in gameplay. The music in particular stood out 6/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Killer Frequency (steam deck) You play as Forest Nash a late night radio host trying to stop a masked murderer from killing people in a small town. Each encounter has light puzzle elements to save each victim. The vibes humor and voice acting are top notch.

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Mechstermination Force (Switch 2) been loving these boss rush games lately. This is a pretty solid rendition. Cool mechanics, weapon variety and giant mech bosses. Difficulty well balanced 7.5/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Where is my Heart? (Steam deck) pixel art puzzle game the levels are cut into squares and mixed up you play as tree spirits who each have unique mechanics 7/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Broforce (steam deck) Sometimes your in the mood for dumb fun this over the top contra like pays homage to every action movie in existence. Great humor and tons of variety with all the different bros. 8/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Furi Demake (steam deck) A 10 minute beat it’s one boss battle not much to it, at least it’s fun to control 6/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Nintendo World Championships NES Edition (switch 2) had a blast chasing S ranks with my son great way to introduce newer generations to the classics. 8.5/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Titan Souls (steam deck) Fantastic boss design around a one hit kill mechanic, loved the mysterious vibes and subtle storytelling felt like a 2d shadow of the colossus. Might need to get your head checked if you ever referred to this as a side quest hmmm 8/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams (steam deck) this series started as a Mario ripoff that had to be pulled from shelves. Fast forward twenty some years and it was revived as an original 2.5d platformer. A world swapping mechanic keeps things interesting 7/10

Evoland (steam) action adventure game with rpg elements. The gimmick is that treasure chests unlock game elements like 3d graphics, sound effects and NPCs. The sequel is one of my favorite indies of all time, this one is just ok. Go play Evoland 2 its great

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Rogue Legacy (steam deck) not a huge roguelite fan normally but this one got its hooks in me. The class variety and constant progression kept me engaged. The trait system was memorable but became a little annoying. Will def be checking out the sequel 8.5/10

@polykillpodcast.bsky.social #justbeatit Shovel Knight Showdown (Switch 2) Doesn’t quite live up to the pedigree of the franchise the controls feel a bit off to me and the difficulty feels unfair at times would recommend bumping down to easy but I’m too stubborn and suffered through it.

Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure (mobile) Puzzler where the whole world is in tiles and you solve puzzles by shifting them around. Great art style and the difficulty was solid had one puzzle that stumped me pretty good. The boss battles were a highlight
