I’ll probably play a little Dragon Quest Builders but I’m also going to fire up Teeny Titans on iOS and give it another run through. The sequel is out in a month or so and I do think it’s a fun game.

I’ll probably play One Deck Dungeon or maybe Balder’s Gate II on my tablet (thanks to the person that mentioned BGII is $2. You bastard). I wish both but probably not. I also have my old stand-by’s: Patchwork and Small World. And always Meteorfall which I prefer on phone more than tablet.
Through the Ages is a game I have a love/hate relationship with. I think I have a strategy and half-way through the game the AIs demonstrate why that was a bad idea. Or they cheat to get the good techs. Maybe I’ll give it another shot.
I also have a trip planned next week but will be dealing with the kids on the flight… probably not good for playing digital board games.

BSG Deadlock has a very tidy after-action battle video exporter. Captures the show pretty damn well, with a very good approximation of that trademark track and zoom camera style.

One Deck Dungeon, though at the moment I don’t see at all how it’s possible to beat even the lowest boss on the easiest setting. So I have some learning to do. And Civ VI to fall back on.

I’m sure that none of you give two bits about my wanderings and wonderings,
Don’t think I’m alone in saying: not true!
Holiday week, so: Terraforming Mars, Food Chain Magnate, Clash of Steel, No Honour Among Thieves, Age of Thieves, Arctic Scavengers, Trieste, John Company, and Sherlock Holmes. Oh, and High Society, because there’s a gorgeous new edition. And I just ordered my own copy of Tyrants of the Underdark…

There should be a category for best offline games to play on an airplane, says a man who is flying to Peru in a few hours… South America is a really big country (joking, it is a real continent!) Mobile games are the only way I stay sane on some long flights, safe travels!

Stay safe, enjoy the experience! My brain turns to custard on long flights and I end up crying at the most inane in flight films. Despite my best intentions I’ve often got the same iq as my inflight meal.

Does anyone have some insights regarding the PS4 Version of Spacehulk: Deathwing?
I usually try to go for Console Versions with shooty shooty pew-pew stuff, because it feels more natural with a controller and also like my TV more than my PC screen for that kind of stuff…
Strictly performance-wise is it ok? Or is it a low fps stutter fest? Also what are your experiences based on? PS4 lite (hua hua) or PS4 Pro?
I’ll be losing One Deck Dungeon games and keeping up with my Ascension and Star Realms turns on the iPad. Pocket Run Pool and maybe some TypeShift on my phone. Gems of War on both. And, hopefully, just one more turn of Tigris and Euphrates for the SP Decathlon so I can uninstall that game one last time.
I finally got to a boss in One Deck Dungeon and lost in the second round… Can I count that as a win?
Marvel Strike Force as my light, progress game. I have Battletech and slay the spire alternating on my PC, and whenever the kids pay attention I have to pop on Pokémon TCG for PC. “Can we open a packet Daddy” from all three means I might have to start trading again to keep up. 160 packs still around though…
Ascension, baby.
Thanks to you guys, I’m playing a lot of Slay the Spire.
My wallet hates you all. 
Also, a few games of One Deck Dungeon.

Finally beat a boss in One Deck Dungeon. For avoidance of spoilers I will just say that each hero plays quite differently, so it’s worth trying them all…
I appear to be in a classic roguelike mood this weekend, so I’ve been playing Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup; navigating my gargoyle fighter through the Snake Pit and the Elven Halls, next stop the Vaults (where I fully expect to die). I was going to alternate it with some Civ VI, but so far the lure of the dungeon has been too strong…

I finished God of War this weekend finally. Awesome game btw.
Tomorrow I’ll start „The Last of Us“, never played it before, and been on my backlog for very long. Curious to see what the hype is about.

The new GoW, I presume?
Exactly.
The fighting is tight, graphics and music superb. Story is good, entertaining. Really enjoyed my time with it.
My only gripe was the open world structure. Though in this particular game it is not much, and the protagonists keep making interesting conversations while doing so.
The older I get, the more I just abhor spending my free time running around in a game, doing nothing but to get from one part of the map to another.

I’m right there with you regarding open worlds. Breath of The Wild is probably the first open world game I’ve enjoyed since Grand Theft Auto 3, and there only because it was a fairly new concept. I like more linear games, for the most part. I thought Last of Us was great, so enjoy!

Thanks !
Funny, I own Breath of the Wild and hesitated to start it because I was afraid to get lost in a very long (and maybe boring) open world game again. I think I will give it a shot now, after what you said.
