Didn't play much this week. Mainly continuing with Dragon Age: Inquisition, plus some more puzzles in The Last Campfire.

My wife, who generally doesn't play games, got back into Tetris 99, even reaching 2nd in a gruelling match. Also playing some single player Tetris in Puyo Puyo Tetris.

What about all of you? What have you been playing? Or planning to play over the weekend?

Been playing Paper Mario some more. Beat Chapter 2 and got the quest to go a few floors down the Pit of 100 Trials to save a Toad's dad, which is always my cue to go way further down to level 50 and get the inventory upgrade, since I'm already there. It's quite nerve-wracking to go down there with 10HP, but I made it and I was only caught by surprise and lost my Life Shroom once. Would have been easier if I hadn't insisted on tattling every new enemy, but you just gotta! It was a nice preview, it's not like I'll have any more health at the end of the game when I go all the way.

Progressed further in Yakuza Kiwami 2 and unlocked the Mahjong Parlor. And I have finally done it, I've won a game with Thirteen Orphans, a hand I have been chasing for literal years! Not just in Yakuza games, but Mahjong games on the Super Nintendo as well. And while doing that, I have learned that you can steal tiles from a Kan. I thought it was all over when the last tile I needed was put to the side in a pile of 4, but I was allowed to call Ron! I guess I should return to the story now. I think someone important was bleeding out or something...

Congratulations on getting Thirteen Orphans. Though I don't know what rest of all that means. Maybe I need to watch some tutorials for Mahjong.

Honestly, 99% of what I know about Mahjong I learned from the ingame tutorials in Yakuza 0 and I went in with zero knowledge. I knew so little, I thought the tiles you threw out were your hand.

I played it in Yakuza 1, and not sure if it was because I was pretty young or the tutorial wasn't good enough, but I didn't understand anything from it. So, after that, I started ignoring Mahjong in all other Yakuza game. Maybe I should give it another try.
