Gold Miner, in a forum arcade.
Got off to a great start, but then had a couple of bad levels and went out with a score of only about $16,000 (the high score was around $18,000).

Genshin Impact
Mainly dailies, not done much at all. I got Varesa on my main account as I randomly had high pity after Flins somehow, though did lose to Qiqi first, then 20 pulls got the guarantee for Varesa. Just been building her up, even put her to level 90 which I've done for only two other characters on there, Zhongli and Ganyu.
Zenless Zone Zero
Completed events and story ready for new patch, which should be the patch that decides my future in the game. I want at two characters specifically, their w-engine if I'm lucky. Although I did pull for and got Ellen for much needed Ice Agent, I'm getting sick of waiting for one and didn't want Hugo. Got her W-Engine too. I have 100 pulls still and a lot of current content to go grind. Ellen helps the variety of usage.
Wuthering Waves
Following the other two, I got Lynae on Xmas Day and playing mainly for exploration in the new region. Liking the bike traversal, as well as getting the daily rewards and building Lynae.
Should finally have a new game to post about soon.

Sonic Racing Cross Worlds
Played a little today. The first Grand Prix on normal speed with Sonic, then that Grand Prix again with Shadow on the next speed up. I saw completing the normal speed completes the slowest speed Grand Prix, so there isn't a need to do that version of it. I also turned off the turn control option off (it's called something else, can't remember the word) and it felt much better to drive. After completing the first Grand Prix the unlocked Miku, Joker, Ichiban and NiGHTS.
Need to play this more obviously to decide how good it is compared to Transformed. Mad that game was back on PS3, I know there has been a Sonic few racers since then but still.

Man, you bringing up Transformed makes me want to go start the game myself now because Transformed is to me one of the top kart racers of all time. I don't expect CrossWorlds to necessarily top it but as long as it captures that same vibe for me that'll be enough to make me happy.

Civilization VII
My sister and I are playing a Rome --> Inca --> France game. I'm still not sure what I think of the civ-swapping: it didn't feel as jarring as I was expecting it to, but "Rome --> Inca" is a pretty odd one. The game allowed it because we'd founded several cities on hilly terrain, so it does make some sense in context, but even so, it's quite immersion-breaking!
We're getting quite close to the end of the game now. We're sending explorers around the map to collect Artifacts, to work towards a Cultural Victory; however, Russia is building a railroad empire, to go for an Economic Victory. It's not often I say this, but... I'll have to try and stop those trains from being built!

Quite recently, I mentioned it in my newest post in Latest Gaming Purchase.
@ Kyng: I take it that Russia is AI/CPU or is the game online?
Genshin Impact
Finishing up the Event and it's quest on my main, will do the same for my other two accounts before it expires Sunday night/Monday morning. I only played Snowtrace once to get the dialogue with Klee that has some Primogems, I don't care to play the minigame fully for the rest though.
