2020 Game Awards: What Have I Gotten Into?

December 20, 2020  in Video Games  tagged 2020 Game Awards by S. Wilson

My video game group is doing our own “game of the year” awards, in whatever categories we make up.  LOL  And since I’m behind in my gaming posts, I’m sharing my awards here, starting with the first one! My first award goes to… Doom 64 for “What Have I Gotten […]


What I’m Playing

November 1, 2020  in Video Games  tagged #SlayTheBackLog by S. Wilson

(Formerly known as my Gaming Backlog Update) As we head into NaNo season, my game playing will likely go down.  It might look like it did go down since my last update in September, but it’s more I didn’t finish as many of the small/quick games as I did last […]


The Cat Lady

October 23, 2020  in Video Games / Views and Reviews  tagged #SlayTheBackLog by S. Wilson

The Cat Lady is a psychological horror game that deals with mental health issues, particularly depression, and serial killers.  How’s that for a hook?!  Well, it worked for me along with a recommendation of a friend who has a pretty good idea of my gaming tastes.  After playing it I […]


Last Day of June

October 21, 2020  in Video Games / Views and Reviews  tagged #SlayTheBackLog by S. Wilson

I played a bunch of shorter games in August and September, so still trying to catch up on the posts for those, weee! I don’t remember how I came across it on Steam, but from its store page, Last Day of June certainly looked drool-worthy!  Absolutely gorgeous graphics and it […]

October 6, 2020  in Video Games / Views and Reviews by S. Wilson

2020 Goals: 3rd Quarter Update

September 27, 2020  in Goals / Personal Stuff by S. Wilson

The Status Report and Goal Changes During the month, I made a big refocus to beat that credit card down because 1 – at the rate I was going, the credit card would be finished around the same time as my car loan, despite the car loan having more than […]


Lara Croft Go

September 21, 2020  in Video Games / Views and Reviews  tagged #SlayTheBackLog by S. Wilson

One of my relatively recent play-throughs, as I catch up on my gaming posts, was Lara Croft GO.  This one isn’t a game I’d heard of until it was gifted to me as part of a gift exchange event in a video gaming community I’m in.  The person who gifted […]


Round Up Time: Seven Video Game Demos from Gamescom

September 13, 2020  in Video Games / Views and Reviews by S. Wilson

Holy cow I am SOOO behind on posts here!  Unfortunately, the whole COVID thing has been heck on ye’ ol’ mental health and getting stuff done, especially the longer it goes on.  I’m still working, which I’m grateful for of course, and have been working from home since mid-March at […]


2020 Game Backlog: September Update

September 5, 2020  in Video Games  tagged #SlayTheBackLog by S. Wilson

I normally would do my game backlog update around the same time as my goal update, but I’ve got so many updates this time from playing SOO much these last few months, plus new additions, that I decided it was time to go ahead and do this now LOL For […]


2020 Goals: 2nd Quarter Update

July 4, 2020  in Goals / Personal Stuff by S. Wilson

The Status Report and Goal Changes Ruby Moon now has lovely new tires, yay! I had apparently forgotten to put that in the actual goal list despite mentioning it last time, so added it and marked it off LOL Obviously, with the long stint of working from home (still going, […]
