I've been quite busy with the website and life so not a whole lot of gaming has been taking place so far this month, but, I did play the demo for Saelig and was quite impressed.
It's an RPG that has simulation and business management elements. I made my first character a super thief by taking anything that would give me a boost to thieving. It took a moment to figure out how I could actually put my skills to the test, but when I did, wow. It was a good idea to start in a larger town!
I kept getting caught stealing though since my stealth wasn't too good... but I was having such success that I was able to pay the fines off without an issue... until it became one. I was caught being bad, and I got exiled from the town. So with not much time left in the demo, I decided to hell with everyone in this town, this is my town. I started burning down all the buildings and most importantly, the other farm plots so that my workers on the farm wouldn't have any competition anymore. As I was doing this, barbarians attacked the town so everyone was occupied with them or running away from them so the fires burned half the town to the ground.
Then I got caught afterward. I didn't have the money to pay the fine so I got sent to the pit. Well, I don't know how long my sentence was for, but my demo ended about 20 minutes later and I just laughed at the insane situation I put myself in and how silly the pit was. I tried to use the unstuck tool in the pit and it teleported me to the top of the pit but I still was unable to move... as expected since I had been jailed. Winter came and that was that for my demo time.
It is definitely worth the purchase, it's $17.49 CAD and I can see having more fun with it.
I also played a couple rounds of Balatro while eating lunch yesterday and finally did the Speedrun achievement which just involves skipping most of the rounds. I got very lucky.
