I bailed out of Astrea; Joe played it to completion and said he thought it had some interesting ideas but wasn't his thing, and that the twee factor would probably drive me bonkers, don't play it. In another mood I might be able to endure twee, but right now my mood is either pretty abstract crunchy roguelike stuff (Balatro) or AGGRO AGGRO DAKKA DAKKA or similar (Fights in Tight Spaces is close enough and has great gameplay imo).
(I love Regency Solitaire 2 but I played an unhinged amount of that game, ready to move on while awaiting Regency Solitaire 3!)
