Over the past week, I’ve spent a lot of time playing Halls of Torment and BALL x PIT, and it’s been an amazing experience. I needed a break from long games with overarching stories, and I guess I also needed these shorter games to manage the stress from work.

I wasn’t keen on picking up BALL x PIT anytime soon, which is the ironic part of this. I’m glad I did. I’ve found it to be a very good game to unwind with. Halls of Torment, on the other hand, scratches that itch for that old school feeling. It feels like back in the Diablo 1/2 days with the aesthetics. The only thing that bothers me about Halls of Torment is the lack of direction once you open up all the maps.

Overall, I would absolutely recommend these games to chill.
