This Week I Played

What is TWIP?

I like playing video games, but I feel like I don't play enough of them these days; I especially don't play enough new and different games. This page is my attempt to remedy this situation, by playing a different game every week. Strictly speaking, the game doesn't have to be new for me to play it here, but still this is also a great way of helping me clear the backlog of unplayed games that I have on my Steam account - currently 215! What's more, my good friend and fellow gamer Aaron is joining me on this adventure, and logging his experiences in the Arcade of Souls - so our posts about the games we play are kinda like a cute, protracted, long-distance conversation, which is fun.

As you'll see, my posts function as pseudo-game-reviews, and I try and provide a recommendation for whether you, the reader, might want to play it. I do this with the metric of will I keep playing it?. The reason I do this is because Steam offers free refunds for games played for less than two hours, which means that, theoretically, anyone could try out a game for a couple of hours to see if they like it, then just refund it if they don't. What I do is play the game for just over two hours, so you're getting an experience you really couldn't get for free!
