    Hehe you’re right kinda.

    I take my phone data offline after about midnight and if I can’t sleep I’ll do Solitaire or crosswords.

    If I’m really wanting a good game, Zen Pinball is my poison. One day I plan to get an old TV and turn it into a Zen Pinball machine, as others have done on YouTube.

      Pinball games are fun. Ive tried everyone on the Switch, and a few on Steam, but they all seem to lack something.

      Finding a decent pool table game is the same.

        I think pool would be harder to emulate than pinball unless using a real cue and VR. It’d be hard to have a one to one user interface for this whereas pinball is mostly binary since flippers went electronic.

        That said, I’ve fond memories of some pool games in the DOS / '95 era. The duration of the mouse click being the analog to the cue force.
