It’s Playdate Time!!
Playdate is a tiny yellow handheld game system from Panic, a company in Portland that started out making software for Mac. It has a black and white screen, a crank you can use in some of the games, and a lot of charm. It also includes a season of games (24 in total) that unlock each week. This is a a short series where I unbox my Playdate and try out the first few weeks of games.

Unboxing and First Look
It’s Playdate Time!! Let’s open it up and check it out! I open up the tiny console itself as well as the purple cover. After a brief charge, I go through the setup process and update the software. Finally I spend some time playing Whitewater Wipeout and Casual Birder.
Week 2 Games
Let’s unwrap this week’s Playdate games! 🎁✨ I unwrap Boogie Loops and Crankin’s Time Travel Adventure, then I spend most of the stream playing the latter.
Week 3 + 4 + 5 Games
Slight change of plans this week, but let’s check out the latest Playdate games? This stream includes Lost Your Marbles, Pick Pack Pup, Flipper Lifter, and Demon Quest 85. I also take a look at Echoic Memory but I am unable to play it due to a technical issue.
