We Love Katamari etc name cruft is a pretty good. It was a pretty good game when it was originally released, and it's a pretty good game now. If I have an issue with it, it's that it's so much less relaxing than the previous Katamari. Katamari 1 had nice loose timing, so you could relax and still complete goals for the level. WLK is more tightly-timed, you're going to actually fail levels a few times before you can pass them. It also includes the fucking Cowbear level, which is terrible. So it's a good sequel but a slightly worse relaxation game. That's all watchable here.

Ecoquest meanwhile was yet another trip into my misbegotten past as a Sierra enthusiast. Two sessions flew by as we "enjoyed" puns, recycled half the ocean, learned about how much humans absolutely suck, and watched a prog metal album play out between a whale and a mutant manta ray. This was a VERY educational game. Check that out here.
