Games You Played Today V: The Phantom Play’n

Been playing a ton of Slipways recently, in the gaps between Immortality. Slipways is a puzzle-esque 4x-inspired strategy game about connecting planets together in order to maximize their level by fulfilling trade resource needs. Has no military shit, which is great for me, and a brutally hard campaign mode I am finding very fun. A great game to use for entering full brain distraction mode without also requiring your skull meat to follow a plot, do real math, or perform demanding inputs of any kind, which is exactly what I’ve been needing recently.

I like how it uses the form of a 4x game but is actually more like a puzzle game. Not what I expected, but I do enjoy it.
