CW: UFO 50 - Block Koala
It's a block pushing puzzle game! It's not terribly exciting or deep. I'm enjoying it for what it is. Having numbered blocks that can only push lesser number is something different. The different colors have some different rules too.

CW: UFO 50 - Attactics
This game is great! I played through the campaign and it was fairly quick to learn what the units do. I also got up to 100+ rank for the cherry in one fell swoop.
The board state can get really clogged, but the fast decision making really makes this game engaging. I'd be so focused on my next move sometimes that I'd get surprised one of my units got the last hit and the battle was over.
When I have some friends over I'll have to convince them to try the 2 player mode with me. Sounds like a blast!

I think I'm going to wind down on Pokemon Champions. The highest I ranked was Ultra 1 for singles. Now I'm slamming into meta teams and losing like crazy. At least in Ultra 2 I'm not seeing Garchomp on every team anymore.
The current season ends next week. It's uncertain there will be any changes for the next season and I'm not interested in grinding ranks.

CW: UFO 50 - Pilot Quest
Half idler/half adventure game. What a strange combination! I think it works, but would have worked better if it was more intertwined.
The idling half if bare bones. You get moon drops to get moon ingots to build a few buildings for workers and more storage. Later you get silk and fix a science machine which are needed for some upgrades.
Adventure wise you defeat bosses to reclaim your ship parts. You buy meat with moon drops which give you time to explore. The time is essentially your health bar and will deplete when you take damage. You spend some time to figure out your surroundings and then you can plan to tackle the bosses. I felt you could take way too much meat though. When you have 1500+ seconds it kind of trivialized the bosses.
Once you buy the ship fuel you can leave, but after the credits it just started a new game. The layout was different and there's some statues in the corner that level up your stats. Maybe they were already there and I just didn't use them. Or is this a second quest? I don't understand the cherry objective so there is more to discover.

CW: UFO 50 - Rock On! Island
It's a tower defense game! It's about what you expect - stop the enemies from reaching your cave. Your towers are cavemen with different tools. You'll need variety to handle the different dinosaurs attacking your cave. Some fly, have armor, or are fast.
You can place chickens to lay eggs (or cook the chickens) to get more meat for upgrades. It's a nice economy sublayer to the game. I also noticed you can sell the chickens for the same price you bought them. There's a cap of 99 meat so I would place many chickens to store the money before the round ends.
Last level took a while to figure out something that works. There's four paths and the map is large. It was hard to tell what was working or not.
Cherry is for perfecting each level. Sounds like a lot of trial and error. I'm kind of tempted to go for it now that I understand the game more.

CW: UFO 50 - Overbold
Holy hell this game can be frustrating. I like the premise. It's a top down shooter where you choose to increase the difficulty of each right to increase the rewards. You're going to need to challenge yourself to get upgrades for the final fight or you will be unprepared.
Being able to hold the fire button to lock your angle is a godsend. Trying to change where you are shooting can be difficult if you are being chased by something quick.
The enemies are way annoying. Fast worms and slow chasing wolves aren't too bad. Bullet shooting birds and plants (which spawn under you always) are manageable if the numbers are kept under control. Exploding pumpkin bombs that bum rush you are a menace, they have low health at least. Whales are the worst. Each group has 9 enemies and the split and spread out when hit. Spreader is necessary and it's a nightmare until you get it.
I always struggle on the second fight. You die in one hit until you buy more starting health. One mistake and you start over. It took me too long to realize your bombs refresh each fight so use them liberally.

CW: UFO 50 - Campanella
It seems many bounce off of this one, but I had a great time! I didn't love it at first. Now it's one of my favorites so far.
Your UFO will plummet due to gravity so you have to manage your thrust (and remaining fuel) to get to the end of each level (50 in total). You can slash nearby objects and enemies. You die if you touch anything, but extra lives are given every 1000 points. The default controls kind of suck - I had to rebind the controls on the Switch to use the R button since that tight maneuvers manageable.
I hit a wall in the third world until I spent more time focusing on how to navigate each level and finding some hidden coffees in the earlier levels to help stock up on lives.
Great challenge and a reminder to take your time when trying games to give them a fair shot.

CW: UFO 50 - Camouflage
This was a nice puzzle game. Get all the collectables by blending in the with the surroundings and make it to the exit. Having an undo button is great for any miscalculations.
It's short, but I feel it would overstay its welcome fairly quickly if there were more. There's only so much you can do with a single screen layout.

CW: UFO 50 - Waldorf's Journey
After trying the 2 player with my friends I figured I would try the single player mode.
It's a simple game. Choose your angle and power to launch yourself platform to platform and make it to the end. You have a limited flying meter. The HUD will even tell you how close to the end you are. You also have some tools you can acquire like a beach ball for a test shot or a harpoon to pull yourself to a platform.
The game is not easy. I have no frame of reference for how far launching will take me so it was mostly guess work. I did manage to make it to the end after refilling my flying meter twice. I had a score of 4 shells.
I can't imagine going for the challenge cherry - 50 or more shells at the end!

New games I played recently:
M.L.E.M. Space Agency - Push your luck game about getting your cat astronaut to moons and planets. Fairly simple, but plenty of choices to make if you want to maximize your score.
Moonrakers - A deckbuilding game where you try to complete missions for the most prestige. I think the negotiation makes this great fun, but it falls apart once players are within striking distance of the end. I'd like to play it again now that I understand a little more about how to play.
Magical Athletes - Pick your racer and try to get first place. Lots of variance defines this game, but you can't help but get invested in trying to win the race. I'll play again, but I went 1st/1st/1st/2nd so it'll be tough to top that.
