Backlog Clearance Bonanza

Ever noticed how many games you have in your games library? Ever checked how many of them you've never played? Go to steam > library
Select games and click on Uncategorized then Sort By "Last Played" and scroll down to "Never".

I have 458 games and I've never played 249 of them. So I've decided I'm going to start from the top and try every game on my steam list that I've not tired yet. Who knows, perhaps there's something fun in here!

Why not give it a try yourself? Let me know your backlog situation and post updates on games you've cleared off the list and what you thought of the game. Was it worth trying, how long you tried it for, would you recommend anyone else try it.

First up on my list is 60 Parsecs! and I will get on it right now.

60 Parsecs!

Turns out to be quite fun. Point and click team management game, pleasing art style. I'm guessing there are several ways these plays could go, only did one run, managed to struggle through and keep my full crew, didn't realize there was something I could do until the last 8 days of my run, but that was probably the thing that saved me in the end. Played for 2 hours and I really enjoyed it. Will do more runs in the future.

I'd say if you have this in your backlog list, give it a go.

Next up on my list is: 911 Operator

911 Operator

Played about 4 hours, quite fun, you manage emergency services on a map, take calls and figure out whats needed. Not very challenging, harder difficulties require more micro managing. Don't think I'll be playing much more, but it was fun for an evening.
So far so good, I'm 2 for 2.
Next up is Aaero... which is a rythm game... I'm not really into those...

I've put 500 hours into it, I enjoyed most of it. I'd say all the new features make it the best version of Fromsoftware's souls games, it is the hardest one if you don't use all the features, but I'd say give it a shot.
