Spilled Mushrooms is my new Playdate card game addiction

Playing Spilled Mushrooms has been a humbling experience. There I was, thinking I’m good at both puzzles and card games, when I found myself briefly stumped on my very first “delivery” in this card puzzle game about gathering mushrooms. That’s what I get for underestimating a game with cute animals in the cover art. In Spilled Mushrooms, a Playdate game, you are a mushroom delivery-person who has messed up bigtime:... Read more ›
