Apparently these are my most played games of 2022, coincidentally also my favorite games of 2022 (though not all of these were released this year)
Last Call BBS was the first Zachtronics game I 100%ed, the bite-size game compilation format works really well, feels like an album with both hit singles and hidden gems. Only real complaint is that the initially intriguing frame story is rather thin

Has anyone commented on the fact that the revered "word of the father" chord in O Come All Ye Faithful is a half-diminished chord, the VERY SAME """"christmas chord"""" that appears in Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas is You??????
Furthermore, has anyone else noted how harmonically bereft and emotionally narrow Christmas music is such that a bog-standard iiø7 chord becomes notable in that context?
