I think any award counts. Last year I used Knights and Bikes which won best visual design at the indie game show

Actually have this game on an older active account, I bought it when it was on sale on a whim. Might look into opening it.

[JayDeLosDioses]

Two more squares for me:

 

My Player's Choice goes to Alice in Wonderland, because it's just chill to do jigsaw puzzles. Something different to the other games I usually play.

 

I've changed the G1 square, I was planning on playing a Sherlock Holmes game, but instead I`ve played Family Mysteries: Poisonous Promises and solved the murder of a rich banker and his two daughters. 

[DrBloodmoney]

Another entry down!

 

 

 

 

Game: Puyo Puyo Tetris 2

Box: "For Another PSNP Event"

 

A good game, though very very similar to Puyo Puyo Tetris, with only a few relatively minor changes and additions.

 

There's a bit more customisation, and the options to create teams of players with different special skills and customisable buffs for the adventure mode, but really, this one is about as direct a sequel as I've seen for a game. If you didn't like the first one, you still won't like this one...

...but if you did like it... well... this is more of it!

 

 

This one didn't seem to fit many of the boxes I have left - I considered it for "Aliens or Robots" and "Anthropomorphised Animals" as both are represented marginally in the roster of characters, but TBH, it felt a little tenuous...

...so I'm using my "get outta jail free" card - and filling the "For Another PSNP Event" box, since this one is also my White entry for the Kaleidoscope Event!

[Wurstmann69]

Hey y'all!

 

I will join this challenge. But with a little twist. I will try to get the Plat for these games, not just the story.

This comes with a downside as I do also include a few games in which I already finished the story but I want to get their platinum trophy. These are: Sackboy, South Park The Fractured But Hole, Ratchet and Clank (PS4), RE: Village and Dead Cells.

 

I do totally understand that this might be against the spirit of the Bingo Bonanza but I will still try to finish as many as possible.

 

Here is my card and my 2023 progression:

As long as it has won an award, I think it counts. Maybe use the wiki page. If it is listed there, I think that would be a good enough.

[Taruta13]

I'm going to generate a second Bingo Card for a more personal future plan, because I am unlikely to get this card done, due to G5 requiring a peripheral to play a game. Unless I borrow my friend's VR helmet, I am never gonna fill in that space.

[sindrics]

 

 

B1 - owned by less than 1000 players - Rule n0.1

G3 - dlc pack or stand alone dlc - imperator augustus campaign rome 2 total war

O5 - by an independant developer - hot tentacles shooter

 

first 3 games down rule n0.1 and hot tentacles shooter were both easy and rather short but the rome 2 dlc campaign took about 25-30 hours to complete as marc antonys rome faction and was alot more enjoyable.

Another update and a double BINGO!

 

 

B1: Aliens or Robots: LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga (PS4)

B2: Adventure: LEGO Bricktales (PS4)

I1: No jump button: Queen's Quest 4: Sacred Truce

I2: With a punctuation or number in the title: Queen's Quest 3: End of Dawn

I3: One-word title: Teslagrad

I5: Starts with the first letter of your PSNID: The Deadly Tower of Monsters

N1: With a female protagonist: Crime Secrets: Crimson Lily (PS5)

N3: Player's Choice: LEGO Marvel's Avengers

N4: By an independent developer: Knightin'+ (PS4)

G1: With an isometric view: Lara Croft GO

G2: Anthropomorphized Animals: LEGO Legend of Chima: Laval's Journey

G3: Crafting mechanics: LEGO The Hobbit (PS4)

G4: Has no humans: Chicory: A Colorful Tale (PS4)

G5: With minigames in it: LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2

O1: You think you will dislike: LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

O2: That you've been meaning to get to: SaGa Frontier Remastered

O3: Non-violent: TOEM

O4: Metroidvania or Rogue-like: Shantae and the Seven Sirens (PS5)

 

So I got another BINGO with another LEGO game, this time a Vita port of the LEGO Chima game for 3DS. This title is smaller because there are only 10 levels and you don't get a trophy for 100%. You just need to do all the levels, find all of the treasures and trade them for all the Red Bricks, unlock every extra character(the fox, skunk and peacock), do a ton of miscellaneous trophies, some requiring using the CHI power-up, and you're basically done. This game is a bit boring because I don't think Laval and his people took off as well as Ninjago. Which I will be LEGOing next.

 

So... 7 spaces left and all of the easy ones are filled, meaning I have fewer options. Worst ones I think are B3, B4(I'm using 2009 as I had my first PSN Profiles account on this site at 2009 so there aren't many options unless I dive into streaming PS3 games on PS+, which I need to renew), the last I and the last O(as I don't have any peripherals unless I bribe my only face-to-face friend, who is my gym trainer, to let me borrow his VR helmet).

[ExHaseo]

Finished up one more.

 

That "Everyone" But You Has Played - Cyberpunk 2077 - Definitely late to the party on this one. I ended up liking it more than I expected. It definitely has it's flaws and there's still plenty of bugs, but it was fun overall. Except the intro. The first ~3 hours of the game are completely pointless and are so middle of the road it's kind of impressive. I didn't know I could feel absolutely nothing about a game like that.

 

It's currently spring break so I've got a little more time than usual, but I'm not sure what I'll be doing next for the event. I tried a few PS+ games to fill out a couple more squares, but they didn't really keep my interest. I got a bunch of games for my 3DS and Wii U in preparation for the eShop going down, so I'll probably be playing those for a bit. But those don't count for the event so it'll probably be a while before I update again.

[MICSAM89]

 

 

Second update for 2023 with all the progress I made in February or lack there off.

 

Only one game completed last month because I’ve been taking my time with Hogwarts Legacy  

 

G5: Released Your Birth Month (January) – The Artful Escape

Overall, the artful escape was ok and worth a single playthrough since it’s so short only a few hour experience.  The art style was amazing and the sound design was equally fantastic I was just a little disappointed with the guitar playing rhythm game.  I was hoping for it to be incorporated into the game a lot more and for it to have a few more complexities or at least grow in difficulty as the game progressed.

 

 

[pelagia14]

Gosh, I hadn't realized that I've earned so many plats since my last update!

 

NEW in Green:

[B4] Simulation: PowerWash Simulator

[I2] Based on a Non-Gaming IP: Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

[N1] No Jump Button: Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII - Reunion

[N2] Has No Humans: Seasons After Fall

[G4] Developed in a Foreign Country: Theatrhythm - Final Bar Line [Japan]

[G5] Retro Re-release: Spyro the Dragon 

 

PowerWash Simulator:

To repeat what I said in the Kaleidoscope Challenge:

Spoiler

This platinum was super chill to get. I'm the kind of person who would play Super Mario Sunshine and made sure to clean up all the goop in an area with FLUDD, so I am definitely part of the target audience for this game. It probably took me about 40 hours to get the platinum, and it was a nice game to relax to while watching TV or listening to a podcast. I loved how detailed and elaborate some of the later levels become, as well as variety of tools at your disposal. But it's also for this reason that I would not recommend this platinum to anyone who isn't at least mildly interested in the simulation concept, as they would probably be bored out of their mind.

 

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

I've watched all of the Star Wars movies but it's not a fandom that I'm super into. I got this game in January through Playstation+, and it was decently fun to explore the different planets and pretend that I was badass fighting with a lightsaber. A decent game for anyone who wants a relatively easy open-world platinum, though I would definitely purchase it on sale.  

 

Seasons After Fall

Found this through the PS+ Game Catalog. Playing as a little fox was super cute! The story was pretty minimalistic and seemed aimed at a younger audience. The "swapping seasons" mechanic was an interesting concept, but I feel like they really only explored the possibilities of it in a few specific spots. The strong points were definitely the game's art style and music.

 

Theatrhythm - Final Bar Line

I'm a big fan of the Final Fantasy franchise and it's music, so this game was a no-brainer for me. I don't normally play rhythm games, and the last time I did so was probably with Rock Band 2 or 3 in the late oughts . I figured that I would enjoy playing through my favorite songs and a bunch of other good ones, but I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the journey towards the Platinum! Thankfully only 3 or so songs required you to beat them on the hard ("Ultimate") difficulty, and no super-hard ("Supreme") difficulty clears were required. What I really liked was the Quest system, where each song has a specific objective you need to complete. Most are no-brainers or fairly simple to accomplish, but each game had one or two "boss fights" that were much more difficult than the rest and required deliberate thought in your party composition - versus just having your favorites in your party. I also shamelessly stole my husband's Dualsense Pro controller for this game, as being able to use a paddle button made the game much easier for a rhythm novice like myself.

@Hurricane_Tanya said that any award qualify for "Award-winning", so after getting the platinum for Shantae Half-Genie Hero, I looked around and found this...

 

 

So yeah, that counts.

 

And now the only spaces left are ones I will probably never get, except for a quadruple BINGO from N2 since I intend to at least platinum Hogwarts Legacy, which released last month.

My TrueSteamAchievements page can be found here https://truesteamachievements.com/gamer/MouseRangers

 

I felt that since Dragon Ball FighterZ has multiple stories with different outcomes, it technically has multiple endings.

I completed DBFZ Enemy Warrior Arc right before posting this.

 

Also, do all of the games have to be on PlayStation? edit (5/31/23): No, they do not.

 

I played Sonic Adventure on PS3 in 2012, but I am using the Steam version here.

Diablo IV has specific locations where you can jump across gaps but you can't jump whenever you want to.

Stardew Valley includes item crafting, which should count as "crafting mechanics." The story or equivalent would be completing the Community Center, which I did.

Stranded Deep technically has a story with an ending, and a trophy with the description "Completed the game." I certainly disliked Stranded Deep.

[AgentPenguin08]

Historical Fiction or Mythology - Assassin's Creed III Remastered

 

This was my first AC game I played and the first PS3 game I owned so it was nice going back to this one. I don't find this one as strong as the Ezio Trilogy or AC4, but I do think this is an underrated game in the AC series. 

 

[gamer_darkly]

Don't think I've posted an update yet...

 

 

It's a bit scattergun at the moment but I've got some exciting games lined up for a few of the boxes.

 

I figure the 'oldest in your backlog' means the game you've owned the longest but never got around to playing, not the the game in your backlog that was released first. I've got a few games I seem to have had forever but in all honesty, I'm not sure which I've had the longest (or how I check ?).... but Code Vein is one of them! (Amusingly, it was announced as one of the monthly games on PS+ about a week after I started it).

[ShinigamiSensei-]

New Update:

Back to this event after a while ☺️

2 new games added:

-Antihero or Bad Guy: Dragon Quest Builders 2 - Malroth is the second main character for the mayority of the game but......he's really the antagonist since he reveals himself as the Master of Destruction later in the game.

-Ultra Rare Platinum: Dragon Quest Heroes 2 - ( 4.25% - No wonder why this is an Ultra Rare Platinum, such a grindfest...geez...?).

 

 

B2: Anthropomorphized Animals - Octodad: Dadliest Catch (NA)

B4: Has No Humans- Biomutant

B5: Crafting Mechanics- Dragon Quest Builders

N5: Antihero or Bad Guy: Dragon Quest Builders 2

G4: With Online Features- Ghost Of Tsushima

O1: Historical Fiction Or Mythology- Trek To Yomi

O2: Ultra Rare Platinum- Dragon Quest Heroes 2

O3: Spawned an Expanded Universe- The Last Of Us Part 2

 

Edited March 21, 2023 by ShinigamiSensei-

[Yuber6969]

Finished Boxer for "Arcade, Rhythm, or Puzzle" and Guilty Gear Xrd: Revelator for "That Takes 'Forever' to Beat."

 

The grind for 150 medals and the online trophies take a very long time.

 

 

Spoiler

Gensou SkyDrift (Underplayed)

 

Sly 2: Band of Thieves (Anthropomorphized Animals) - Every character in this game is an anthropomorphized animal.

 

Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- (That You Meant to Play Last Year) - Self-explanatory.

 

Smoots Summer Games (That You Can Beat in One Sitting) - The story equivalent can be finished in about an hour. The plat can also be finished in one sitting if you have the skill for it (which I didn't).

 

Bakumatsu Rock: Ultra Soul (Historical Fiction or Mythology) - The story takes place in the 19th century.

RWBY: Grimm Eclipse (With Gorgeous Vistas) - The game has some vistas.

 

The Language of Love (Banned/Censored in a country) - https://forum.psnprofiles.com/topic/85087-list-of-censored-games-ps5-ps4-vita/

 

Boxer (Arcade, Rhythm, or Puzzle)

 

Guilty Gear Xrd: Revelator (That Takes "Forever" to Beat) - Online trophies and the trophy for getting 150 badges are very time consuming.

 

[Copanele]

One more square done:
 

 

No jump button - Wildcat Gun Machine - You have a dash and a grenade button, but no jumping!

Aliens or robots - Dead or School - Despite the title, there's also robots in this game and they're central to the plot

 

Has no humans - Darksiders -  the game happens during the Apocalypse, all humanity has been wiped out  

By an independent developer - SkyScrappers  - Developed by Ground Shatter

 

Crafting Mechanics - Yakuza 5 [NEW] - The plat asks you to craft all the weapons from Kamiyama Works. Which is one of the most painful things to do in the game  

Has no platinum trophy - Chaos Code - PS3 version is platinum free  

 

Anthropomorphized Animals - One Piece Burning Blood - Tony Chopper is a reindeer who ate the human human fruit.

Has snacks - Dead or Alive 6 - Snacks are available in Survival mode, they can heal you or give you extra points. 

With a # or Punctuation in the Title - Phatom Breaker: Omnia. The only thing this game is good for, an event  

 

Based on a Non-Gaming IP - Kill la Kill: IF - Based on the crazy Kill la Kill anime.

For Another PSNP Event - Street Fighter x Tekken - also used in The Ultra Rare Cleanup 2023 event.

Favorite Genre - Street Fighter IV - at this point yeah...fighting games is my favorite genre.
