I’ve been playing a lot of The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy. As someone who enjoyed the Zero Escape games but had never played a Danganronpa, I was unsure about this one, but the demo really gripped me. It plays great on the Deck. The back buttons have been nice for skipping through the VN portions since my A button has gotten loud and clicky.

That game is really long and I’m trying to pace myself though, so I’ve now also picked up Mina the Hollower. I didn’t like the demo, and am not a fan of the retro aesthetic, but I downloaded it to try it out based on the glowing reviews. I don’t know what all they changed from the demo, but I was hooked almost right away. It’s hard starting out, but satisfying and snappy to play, and the GBC-style graphics are better (more readable) on the smaller screen of the Deck than on a TV.

Nothing really hits the same as Outer Wilds unfortunately. I’ll second Curse of the Golden Idol as another game to check out. Similar to Obra Dinn, but I liked it better in some ways.

How does it run on the Deck? Seems like a great fit so long as the framerate holds up.

Ah you’re right, I had missed that. I’ve been following this story since the murders (I live in the Bay Area), so most of the article was very familiar. I’m glad she said sorry, but I wish it hadn’t taken years and very lenient sentencing to get there.

In what ways did she show remorse? After the murders, she transferred many of her financial assets away such that the family of the victims couldn’t sue for them in a civil lawsuit. That doesn’t sound like remorse to me. Also AFAIK, she has never apologized, despite not contesting.

I don’t think she needs to rot in prison necessarily, but she shouldn’t be allowed ever drive again at a minimum.
