Death on the Nile: Agatha Christie Hercule Quirot game has been announced.
By the same devs as Murder on the Orient Express. No one played that yet?
It was 10 USD on the eshop recently.
Frank Capra's 1946 It's a Wonderful Life.
Just bought it, GG.
Another good choice.
You would!
RIP Rickey Henderson aged 65. A baseball legend with a huge impact on the game (and even the rise of personality-driven sports players).
The press maligned him a fair bit because he was openly proud of his accomplishments (and black).

When I think of the A's, I think of the trio of Henderson, Canseco and McGuire.
Yes, it was a great time. He grew up in Oakland, so him becoming an A was especially appreciated. I have his autobiography and he was the real deal. My ex-wife was from Oakland and she would see him and Tony LaRussa in regular restaurants, or just in the street.
No news updates today, there is no news, understandably. Here's is some news, I ran 5K this morning, was hard, but easier than yesterday given the 30 degree heat.
Beach was perfect, warm water. Lost my sunglasses in the surf. Have not gamed yet today, working on next podcast. Read two copies of Retro Gamer, which is a win for me (I save up my magazines and read them on vacation).
Considered buying Sonic X Shadow Generations when I found out it include a remaster of the original Sonic Generations game (which is great).
And that's your news update.
I couldn't run 500m
There's 3 other Hercule Quirot games on Switch.
The London case and the First cases are by the same dev. Really enjoyed the First Cases and I recently bought the London case.
Then there's the ABC Murders, that's pretty good but shorter and more graphic adventure style.
They frequently sell a combination from those 3 together (in double packs) for a cheaper price.
Though it always seems to be ABC + one of the other two titles.
I feel like these encounters are becoming too closely put next to each other, but I guess it depends on the order you play the game maps.
Bosses have you flailing about dying, trying to recognise patterns and vulnerability. Dying a a few times before working out what to do.
It's becoming somewhat tedious, unless they look really cool.
Also the names for the regions are stood bland, they all sound the same and I can't remember which one is which? We used to have Phenendra drifts and Chozo Ruins, here it's Benaria, Darren, Chronicles, Liron, Dylon, Miron
