Was laughing at the meme, realized the only game I play on my phone is solitaire, flipping colorful blocks.

Hey now, as a 40-year-old, I find myself heavily invested in the Zachtronics Solitaire Collection on my phone—oh no. I’ve become an old solitaire lady.
NOOOOOOOOOOO

I didn’t know that was on mobile… Interesting. I want to love Zachtronics games, but I’m so bad at them lol

I could never seem to get my head around Merge Maestro. It’s on my phone and paid for though. Maybe I’ll give it another go.

It’s pretty nice that a game of it isn’t neverending and doesn’t take all too long since defeating it is only 15 rounds, but it does take a lot of reading descriptions of all the different symbols and really thinking about how they’ll work with what you have at the time so you have to give it more mental focus than your typical candy crush type of game. Steeper learning curve and more mentally stimulating, which could either be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on what you like.

It’s more fun with real cards. Not as convenient, but if you pull out a deck and start playing in public, someone will stop to talk.

that deck is sick asf
tanisnikana@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Thanks! It’s quite comfy to play with, and rides along real smooth in my bag. I know they’re out of production, but air decks can still be found here and there if you look hard enough. I picked mine up for fifteen dollars each—not bad for a PVC deck that I’ve had for like six years now.
(Also yes, I used an em-dash, no, I’m not AI, I just like em-dashes.)

I love some basic stupid shit like moving colorful blocks when I’m half watching some basic stupid shit on tv, with a drink handy.
