My corporate overlords decided I get some vacation during this time of year, it being the holidays and all that. With some free days on my hands I'm planning to mess around with a couple games.
First up is Millennia a 4X game kinda like Civ. The twist is there are different ages that go off the rails from real history—so you can get a steampunk age or one where aliens invade and stuff like that. I barely touched it when it came out but now, after 7 updates, I figure I will give it a proper try.
Then theres Songs of Conquest, an indie game with amazing pixel art that’s sorta like the old Heroes of Might and Magic games- I might play this with a friend early next year as well.
EDIT: OK im feeling a bit tired so Im just gonna play my current Crusader Kings 3 save till I go 2 bed. Happy Holidays everyone
What are the fine folks on Hexbear playing 
I started that SM64DS ROMhack 'The Koopa Who Stole Christmas' and the first two stages are nice but the 2 after it are really clunky, especially with the inferior DS controls. Might go back to it, but will probably drop it.
Gunna' finish 100%ing Captain Toad tonight.
Captain Toad seemed super cute. Im not really much of a puzzle gamer though
I'm neutral to puzzle games I guess. Captain Toad is possibly my favourite puzzle game outside Portal so far. Really like how breezy and non-frustrating it is to play for 99% of it.
