Games Acquired 2026

Got peer pressured to buy Mina lol! It's like a highly concentrated Zelda/Souls, very well designed, and has a randomizer!

I have it too. I’m not very far yet, but it keeps getting better and better. I’ll be curious how it compares to Pipistrello & The Cursed Yo-Yo, another fabulous Zelda-like that I played earlier this year. It’ll be hard to top that one, but I’ll see!

Regardless, it’s been a big year for Zelda-likes starting rodents.

I completely forgot that I picked up Koudelka and Mortal Kombat Deception last week.
