Games, games, games!

I’ve been a long timer gamer — not always in video games, but also board games and card games. Not to mention croquet outdoors. Long ago I recall playing Asteroids, but after that I was never much into video games. A couple of years ago I bought a Nintendo Switch and decided to try video games again with Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Needless to say, I was immediately hooked. I’ve also expanded the types of games I play – exploring jRPGs, Sims, and others. My preference, though, is farming/sim games.

I also purchased a PS5 so that I could play the new Harry Potter game that came out in February. Our old MS Xbox 360 (which I rarely turned on) was gathering dust and will now go to my older brother who collects hardware/consoles.

I’ll be streaming gameplay over on my YouTube channel, so I’d love to have you stop by and chat with my while I’m gaming.
