Hi everyone! My name is Barney (he/him) and I am a PhD Candidate in Civil and Environmental Engineering.
My favourite games of all time are the ones from the super mario party series. I have been played each one since Mario Party 8 on the Wii, and I really enjoyed playing with my brother and my parents on the Wii, the Wii u, and switch. I loved how we would all strategize during each turn, and the great minigames in the games. Unlike other games, I really liked how mario party is unpredictable, as the underdog in can easily make a comeback at the last second. So far, I like Super Mario Party Jamboree the most.
A game that I have played recently is Stardew Valley with my brother. While we haven’t gotten close to 100% finishing the game (more so close to 30% done). I like the multiple roles and objectives you can take on in the game, especially how you can work with the other player towards a common goal (i.e., the missions in the community center, etc.).
Look forward to meeting you all and having a great quarter!
