Hello, Good morning and welcome to another fine edition of What We’re Playing; our weekly round up everything that’s kept us glued (or not) to our TV screens, desktop monitors, portable displays and whatever else you crazy kids are playing games on these days.

So, what have you been playing over the last seven days?

    Pikmin bloom was fun! I got to level 41 and moved on cuz if you live in the suburbs like me there aren’t enough flowers to bloom or special mushrooms to battle, so i literally have to walk many thousands of steps or drive somewhere densely populated or spend real money. Its a shame cuz it was fun on the lower levels but plateaued pretty hard for me after level 40.

    I’m curious how you’ll like slime rancher 2. I got it in EA some time ago, and it was too similar to the first one for my taste. Wonder if they’ve added more at launch to help set it apart and introduce new ideas.

      Bloom has opened up now that you can friend randos, and invite friends to join mushroom battles. I have a couple dozen people from all over the world that I share mushrooms with and send postcards to. If you want to get back into it, there’s [email protected] here on Lemmy for it.

      SR2, my daughter is already playing it. She thinks the news slimes are cute, but yeah, it doesn’t look that different from the first one. The first one was so tight, though, I don’t feel bad about throwing some more money at the dev.
