Over the next few days, I’ve got some exciting plans to scale a small mountain in Ludus. That game has really caught my attention and pulled me in more than I expected! The quick, intense battles and the unpredictable elements that can change the course of the fight in an instant are simply thrilling. I just love the rush of adrenaline those kinds of games provide!

In Black Beacon, I’m planning to make some progress, as it has been challenging thus far due to my team requiring additional upgrades. Additionally, I aim to enhance my fresh Fire Spirit Cookie in Cookie Run: Kingdom and compete as high as possible in the Arcade Arena. It’s an enjoyable experience, but once tickets run out and the season concludes, I don’t want to waste any time, so I’ll be focusing on climbing, climbing, climbing!

This week, The Lost Crown was quite popular, but my attention is shifting towards Where Winds Meet now. It would be fantastic if we could play it, but until then, I’ll search for other mobile games that offer a similar experience. Additionally, I plan to revisit online and cooperative gameplay (cooperative play may require more effort locally), to discover what games are attempting to recreate the comfortable couch atmosphere. In addition, I might give Sonic Rumble a spin, being an old-time Sonic fan eager to see who SEGA has included in this “soft launch” crossover.

This weekend, I’m planning to take a break from my computer and explore a few mobile games instead. However, I’m unsure if my phone has enough power to handle these games smoothly.

My experience with technology has always been disastrous. I’m prone to accidents and seem to make poor choices when purchasing tech products. To give you an example, my phone has been in a state of complete breakdown for several months now. Despite having ample time to repair it, I dropped it on a plate of brownies years ago, which not only shattered the screen but also left whipped cream everywhere in my kitchen. Since then, things have only gotten worse. (This predicament is as much funny as it is absurd.)

I’ve been delaying the mobile game upgrade for quite some time now, leaving me slightly outdated in the gaming world (most of my time goes to The Sims News instead of PG). Nevertheless, I recently installed Good Coffee, Great Coffee this week and intend to make the most of it during the weekend. However, this will only occur if my phone stops dialing random contacts unintentionally. If my phone persists in this issue, then I’ll try out The Blue Prince instead.

In Xenoblade Chronicles X, I’ve advanced to a point where I’m relentlessly battling a small character named Joker over and over again to obtain a particular weapon with three distinct features. As a result, I’m taking this opportunity to explore a few other games while taking breaks, which has been quite timely.

At long last, SD Gundam G Generation Eternal has dropped, and I’m all set to immerse myself in some strategic mecha combat on the side! As a kid, I used to stay up till midnight or even 2 AM, just to catch the latest episodes of Gundam airing in England. On an entirely different note, Duck Detective: The Secret Salami is now available on mobile, and I can hardly wait to jump into that quirky fun! There’s something about using a duck’s stare to crack cases and extract confessions that never fails to tickle my funny bone.

Just returned from a trip to Croatia, and I’ve got gaming ideas swirling in my head like a whirlpool! On the flight back, I found myself lost in the quirky world of Katamari Damacy Rolling Live on my device – it’s an absolute gem for touchscreen controls. Plus, I had one of those magical runs in Slay The Spire+ where every card draw felt like a stroke of genius. Now, that secretly ambitious part of me wants to embrace that success-driven spirit even more!

Besides that, there’s the Gigantamax Snorlax event happening in Pokemon Go. Given the substantial health points (HP) that Snorlax usually possesses, along with fellow gym dwellers like Chansey, this one could potentially be quite a challenge. Fortunately, our town boasts an active and supportive community, and I’ve been beefing up several of my Dynamax and Gigantamax Pokemon, so I believe I’ll manage to keep up with it.

This weekend, I’ve got “Wittle Defender” and “Hello Kitty Friends Match” on my schedule, all thanks to regional launches! Fingers crossed that Habby doesn’t fall short with the first one, while I secretly hope Gudetama makes a surprise appearance in the second, even though he’s not shown in any online game screenshots yet. Long live Sanrio’s lazy egg, I say!

Over the upcoming weekend, we’re celebrating Easter. It’s a time that usually involves catching up with loved ones. This could lead to plenty of rounds of Heads Up, an enjoyable game for everyone. In this game, you pick a category (often food), stick your phone against your head, and let others give clues to guess the word. On Saturday, I’ll also be out playing Pokemon Go, as it happens to be Snorlax Gigantamax day!

Although it’s the Easter weekend, I’ve got a flight coming up, which means Vampire Survivors will be back on my schedule. Yet, I’m eager to give Retro Bowl a try and figure out how it operates, so if I have a lengthy layover, perhaps that would provide an ideal opportunity to familiarize myself with it?

Regardless of the choice, a delightful aspect of mobile gaming is that it keeps me entertained without the risk of boredom. However, this only holds true as long as my phone’s battery lasts.
