December 2019 Community Game-Along: Puzzle Games

December 30, 2019December 3, 2019 by Anne

We’re finishing the 2019 Community Game-Along schedule with a bang with our final theme of the year: puzzle games! I love how puzzle games can be really great for stress and anxiety, and I know the end of the year can be a source of both of those things for many people, so it’s a great time to decompress with some wholesome puzzles!

From Professor Layton to Puzzle Quest, December’s puzzle game theme includes all manner of puzzlers, so pick up a game and share your impressions with #PuzzleGameMonth!

September 2019 Community Game-Along: Sports Games

September 3, 2019September 2, 2019 by Anne

In some places, September means the start of the new school year, but here at Chic Pixel, it means it’s time for another Community Game-Along! This month, we’re doing another suggestion from the Chic Pixel Pals Discord: sports games!

Sports games are not usually a genre I personally gravitate towards, but that’s why the Community Game-Along themes are so great! It’s the perfect time to try a game you wouldn’t normally play, or check something off your backlog. Plus, there’s such a huge range of sports games, you’re bound to find something you enjoy!

To celebrate Evo 2019, this month’s Community Game-Along is all about fighting games! Fighting games can have a steep learning curve, but they’re a whole lot of fun!

As with every monthly Community Game-Along, participation is easy. Just pick a game that fits the theme and play it sometime during the month! Share your impressions by tweeting, writing a review, doing a live stream, singing a song, or whatever else tickles your fancy! Just be sure to use #FightingGameMonth so others can see it!
