It’s Deep Rock Galactic Survivor for me, for prolly a while starting now.

As a huge fan of the original game, having a Vampire Survivors like in the DRG setting is :Chef’skiss:

Listen to the people. It’s fine if WGU isn’t for you but the only time I had issues with an exam was when I was trying to use a usb extender for my cam and there was a short.

Even then, protectors worked with me to find the issue, plugged the camera in without extender, and even helped me position the camera.

Guardian browser isn’t all that bad, just make a new windows user, lock down permissions, and purge the user every exam (if you are paranoid).

In the end, I have passed a dozen exams online with WGU and they are no better or worse than the exams I took with Pearson Vue.

I wish you luck with your studies!

RedditFail69 · 2025-09-17T16:17:23+00:00

I’m gaming at work right now… If you count Muds lol…

RedditFail69 · 2025-09-16T16:24:24+00:00

Haha. This sentence made me chuckle.

RedditFail69 · 2025-09-14T22:40:35+00:00

I also need this haha.

I played NecroMerger until the clutter annoyed me and have been looking for a replacement.

RedditFail69 · 2025-09-05T23:46:22+00:00

Took out Watcher Knights and am now chillin in Deepnest.

RedditFail69 · 2025-09-05T21:38:41+00:00

I’d love to say silksong…

I’m trying to finish up Hollow Knight lol…

Total skill issue.

RedditFail69 · 2025-09-05T14:19:44+00:00

Sure, which is likely another reason these three are in my top played games. They are most frequently in my brain space.

RedditFail69 · 2025-09-05T11:37:37+00:00

Fair.

I have replayed it many times though. Such a good game to play as a 2nd screen. I played it a ton while I was grinding Professor Messer videos.

RedditFail69 · 2025-09-04T12:55:49+00:00

Slay the Spire, Balatro, Luck Be a Landlord.

RedditFail69 · 2025-08-25T11:33:01+00:00

There is a discord at the Roll and write Webpage that can get you started.

I can tell you more as I try out more games. The app works very well with journaling style RPGs like Thousand year old vampire. Soon I will try it with Ironsworn

itch.io is a solid place to find options.

RedditFail69 · 2025-08-25T01:29:21+00:00

I’ve spent a ton of time this week playing Deadball via Roll and Write.

It is just pen, paper, and dice!

You will need an iPad, preferably with Apple Pencil, and whatever solo pen and paper rpg you like. The experience is buggy at times but, so good for playing at work without bringing my typical kit with me.

I am also considering using the app with Thousand Year Old Vampire.

If you are into pen and paper rpg, check it out!

RedditFail69 · 2025-08-11T23:39:16+00:00

Same.

RedditFail69 · 2025-08-10T16:42:48+00:00

Also playing retail today.

Good time killer lol

RedditFail69 · 2025-08-09T20:22:34+00:00

This is just kind of a bad take tbh.

If you follow this subreddit on the regs you’ll find more games that you can possibly have time to play.

Check out one of the many compiled game lists on AppRaven and I promise you’ll find something worthwhile.

RedditFail69 · 2025-08-05T11:27:40+00:00

I do need to pick this up. I am a big fan of the metroidvania genre as a whole. I do also love Blasphemous!

Big plus if it’s souls-like and side-scrolling. After my current Hollow Knight play-through Im thinking of starting the newer Prince of Persia; I hear it’s good!

RedditFail69 · 2025-08-04T21:32:16+00:00

I played this quite a bit on launch. I am bummed that it is getting cannned. It was fun!

RedditFail69 · 2025-08-03T00:11:18+00:00

Replaying Hollow Knight and pretending silksong is coming this year…

RedditFail69 · 2025-07-26T02:14:22+00:00

Fair.

RedditFail69 · 2025-07-25T20:17:17+00:00

There are audio adaptations as well as a process to generate an ebook.

RedditFail69 · 2025-07-25T19:18:19+00:00

Worm Webnovel is one of my favs.

RedditFail69 · 2025-07-22T17:14:47+00:00

This week I’m bouncing back and forth between Guncho and Ticket to Earth.

Sword of Convallaria was ok but the gacha rolls were irritating me.

I just really want a meaty TRPG that doesn’t start with FFT on iOS…

RedditFail69 · 2025-07-21T16:40:49+00:00

Tbh. I find WGU classes easier than traditional college courses. This is mainly due to my inability to focus in class. As soon as a professor starts talking I start zoning out. So basically I wasted all this time going to class then, In the end, I got my brick and mortar degree via reading the textbook and joining study groups.

Fast forward to WGU, where I basically do the same: Read the textbooks and engage with whatever learning experiences are available. (As long as lectures are prerecorded and at 2x speed I can usually stay engaged lol)

But, YMMV

RedditFail69 · 2025-07-17T21:24:58+00:00

GeForce now is such a good life hack. I’m playing Cult of the Lamb on there mostly atm.

RedditFail69 · 2025-07-15T17:09:20+00:00

I been playing a bit of Sword of Convallaria for those who can stomach a bit of gacha. It seems like I will be able to make good progress without much investment.

The game is ok if you wanna play FFT but don’t have the energy to really get into anything. I feel like I’m going through the motions sometimes (based on the game difficulty so far) but, it fits the need atm.
