It'll be another couple of weeks before it stops feeling like we're in full night at 4:30 p.m. - the lingering early dark is one of the roughest parts of winter. I always feel that here in New York we shouldn't make decisions during two months of the year: February, when it's been cold and dark for so long that we can't remember when the days felt good just being days, and August, for the same reasons except hot.

I've always meant to play this game - a well-reviewed throwback RPG from an active indie dev who still maintains the game these 8 years after release, and made a sequel to it recently as well. But there are so many games, and time eats the days so quickly. This is an old key, but newly activated, so it should work like new.

Happy New Year!
