Catching Up

I was out of town for a while, so I only got a little bit of gaming done, almost entirely on the DS even though I had my laptop along with me:

I finished off Professor Layton and the Curious Village, managing to find and solve all 120 main puzzles, though I did need to use the hints on a handful of the later ones, and got too frustrated or impatient with a couple and looked up their solutions. There are still a bunch of extra and downloaded puzzles for me to finish off, though.

I also put some more time into Etrian Odyssey, getting my party from level 6 to level 9, uncovering most of the second level map, and even beating one FOE. It took a bunch of hours just to do that though, including having to grind for cash for resurrections and to replace consumables. It’s still a decent “old-school” RPG in the mechanics, but it takes an awfully long time to make relatively small amounts of progress. I’m not sure if I’ll bother finishing this one off.

And I polished off the odd sudoku and picross puzzle here and there, via the Brain Age and Picross DS games, to kill off some idle moments.
