Thimbleweed Park

Difficulty: Medium. A pretty average difficulty for a point and click game. There were some parts that were tricky, but overall, not too bad. 

How long to beat the game: I think it took me a few weeks or a month because I didn't play it consistently. If I were to sit down and play this all the way through, it would probably take a few days. 

Best parts about the game: What really drew me to this game was the pixel graphics and retro gameplay. It really is like an old point and click game which I am a sucker for. I also like the weirdness of the game and some of the humor speckled throughout. I think the main complaint about the game is that the murder is never reallllly solved (unless I am not remembering correctly) and the players in the game realize they are in a video game. The ending is basically the characters becoming self-aware and needing to destroy the game so they could escape the weird little town of Thimbleweed Park. I also liked that we could alternate between the characters as the game progresses. The characters in this game really made it. From the clown to Dolores (who got her own game and I'm pretty sure I didn't spell that name correctly), these characters were memorable. This was a pretty simple game with elements that made the success it was. I feel like this game was sort of a big game when it was released and I'm really glad I played. I do NOT recommend playing on the Switch though. Point and click games should def be played on a PC (and I know this but still played on my Switch lol).

Fire Emblem Engage

Difficulty: Not tooooo difficult, however, there was a little grinding required to beat some of the later levels.  How long to beat the game...
