I decided to try Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms on my phone after getting the free stuff from Epic. It's... not great. It honestly looks like the result of of a rushed group project from a group of students. Plays like it too, it's one of the worst mobile games I've seen.

Slime Volleyball is bringing back memories
I decided to just play on angband.live again. I wanted to play FrogComposband as a ring, but I still had a game as a vortex that I started probably around 2 years ago. Previously I hadn't wanted to continue that game but also did not want to throw away the progress I made. I decided to just bite the bullet and continue, then died half an hour later as I had no idea any more of what my vortex could handle in terms of enemies...
So then I started on the ring playthrough I had been wanting to play, which went really well! Found some decent spells to use, got a berserker as my ring-bearer which was extremely durable, I had a bunch of wands and staves, had absorbed quite a lot of jewellery and was having a lot of fun, right up until I did a quest that put me in a small room with a whole bunch of enemies that just kept confusing me. I had no confusion resistance yet, so I basically got stun-locked (confuse-locked?) and couldn't make it back to the exit.
I didn't feel like starting from scratch with a ring as it progresses very slowly, especially at the start, but I did like the gameplay mechanic of absorbing power from items, so I started a new game as a filthy rag, which absorbs the powers of armours instead of jewellery. Though so far I'm just scrounging for money to get some basic equipment.
Was excited to try Cities Skylines this morning, but had to abandon it pretty quickly. I just can't read the text. My vision tends to improve later in the day so I'll try it again.
I built some roads and then followed what I could make out of the tutorial and screwed those roads up. Found the bulldozer and deleted the mess, but it wouldn't let me remake the roads to where they would meet at the same elevation. There was always a huge bump in the road that wouldn't be unpassable.
I think changing road elevation is done with Page Up and Page Down.
