Re: What are you playing?

yeah man, I almost picked up Civ6 yesterday as Target had it on sale for $40. But I did just receive several new Switch games for Christmas, so didn't want to pick up another to add to the pile right away. But that's another one I'm super excited about.
I'm playing the "Adventure Mode," which is I guess the main campaign. Your goal is to attain 10 'permits' which is basically just 10 tiers of what your park is worth. It's not exactly difficult if you've played any of these sorts of games before. And having played for around four hours, I think I'm already on the 7th tier. So I don't feel like the adventure mode will be very long to complete. That said, there are four park templates to choose from, so there's some replayability there. And there are scenarios, which I think are just sort of mini-challenges to play. But of course, once I complete the main mode, this game will be there for the sandbox mode. And really, when it comes to these kind of games, that's what I want them for: little zen gardens to relax with.
I'll let you know if my opinion changes much once I complete adventure mode, but right now I can say that this game will bump something and crack my Top 10 of 2018 for sure. And I can definitely say that I'm having WAYYY more fun with it than the other two sim games that I had had much higher hopes for this past year (Railway Empire and Surviving Mars), so there's that. It's not as deep as Planet Coaster, but until I can play Planet Coaster "on the go," this game will certainly remain a staple.
