    Weird that there were no Western lefty protests when the Iranian regime shut down the country's internet and went on to kill 30-40k people in the streets, even in hospitals. But the same day those murderers are killed the lefty protests start in the West. Huh. It's like those lefty people don't...

    What are you playing this weekend/these days?

    Finished the remake of Sherlock Holmes The Awakened. The graphics and voice acting are very good, the story is Lovecraftian. Thankfully it doesn't try and show you the eldritch horrors except in the form of a few statues. You collect clues and combine them in a sort of mind map to get answers on...

    Sadly islamists are doing islamist things. They've been reported moving forces and material in or near school buildings, yearning for the international press of westerners attacking schools.

    Retro Flohmarkt in Kelkheim am 08.03.2026

    Ach, schade, dachte kurz das wäre ein Tippfehler und es würde sich um Kelheim handeln. Eintrittspreise für Flohmarkt*besucher* hab' ich in meinen ü40 Jahren allerdings auch noch nicht gesehen.

    I've finished all Deponias, Dark Eye Chains of Satinav, the Edna games, A New Beginning. I'm kinda half-way through Night of the Rabbit and Whispered World. I think Anna's Quest is the weakest of their titles and the Deponias are their best with quite a big difference between those two.

    Just finished Anna's Quest, point'n'click from the Deponia devs. It was alright, nothing to write home about.

    Khamenei reported dead. I hope that means that we don't get a stream of "war refugees" running to the "nearest safe country" i.e. Europe/Germany.

    What are you playing this weekend/these days?

    Just finished Lost in Play. It's a puzzle game that's beautifully drawn and animated in the style of Gravity Falls. Great music, too. Nice little brain teasers. I'd play more of that. Reminds me of Puzzle Agent. Recommended! Edit: Returned a Steam game for the first time, Marvel's Midnight...

    Absurdism corner

    Considering the hole in the wall I'd add other body parts to the warning.

    Oof, true: Only 63,7 % of GOG Galaxy players made it past the tutorial of SKALD. For a long time I wished I could play Red Steel for Wii but it requires that precision upgrade thingy for the Wiimote which I never got. Apparently one of their studios made ZombieU which I also never played but...

    ^- Reminds me of kkrieger Just finished SKALD: Against the Black Priory, a turn- and party-based retro RPG. It has great writing with a lovecraftian/alien theme, good music and "for the time" great graphics with optional CRT filters. I love and highly recommend it! Judging by the GOG...

    What are you playing this weekend/these days?

    Just finished Steamworld Dig 2. Played through it in two long sittings. Between the Boulderdash-style gameplay, collecting riches, unlocking and buying upgrades, finding secrets, fighting enemies, doing puzzle rooms and platforming challenges this was a lot of fun. It's beautifully drawn and has...

    Edit: What's that with the bike-shedding@pink flag? Did you also think of the pride flag? And now what - desecrate and burn them? The area of nowadays' Turkey for example used to be Christian. Today it is forbidden by law to build or even just repair a church there. You cannot be a Christian...
