Trophy Journal
Welcome to my Trophy Journal, a running log of what I’m playing, what I’m hunting, and where my current platinum obsession lies.
November 2025
Playing: PowerWash Simulator 2, Ghost of Yōtei, Stray, Cat Quest
Nov 18th: Platinum #34
Platinum #34: Cat Quest – A nice, easy clean-up plat, I only had three trophies left, probably should have gotten this one much sooner 😅 .. anyways I hopped back in, wrapped everything up, and finally ticked this one off the list. Still just as charming and fun as I remembered. 🐾✨
Nov 17th: Platinum #33
Platinum #33: Stray – A surprisingly emotional journey wrapped in kitty cuteness. Loved this one. 🐈⬛✨
Nov 12th: New Game - Stray
I’ll be honest, this wasn’t the game I was expecting it to be… I went in completely blind, only knowing it was about a cat in a cyberpunk city and that people seemed to love it. With it being on PS Plus this month, it felt like the perfect short and light-hearted adventure to follow Ghost of Yōtei.
The kitty is absolutely adorable, a little ginger fluff with the sweetest mews. I was ready for something cozy and relaxing, but Stray surprised me. It’s darker, grittier, and much more melancholic than I imagined.
At first, I worried it might just be a simple 3D platformer, but the atmosphere quickly drew me in. The world feels alive in its own quiet, broken way, the neon-lit alleys, the remnants of humanity, and the lonely little robots that somehow manage to feel full of heart. I’m now completely invested in the story and these strange, endearing characters.
Nov 11th: Platinum #32
Platinum #32 achieved! 🏆 What a journey, visually stunning (I have far too many screenshots), strong story, amazing combat and easily one of my favourite games this year. 🙌🏻
Nov 9th: Platinum #31
Platinum #31 unlocked! PowerWash Simulator 2 🧽💦 Honestly one the highlights of my gaming year, the perfect cozy game to relax and unwind with and I’ve never felt so productive for doing absolutely nothing. 😆
Nov 8th: Gaming Update
So Ghost of Yotei has taken a back seat this last week despite being so close to the plat 🙈 I’ve just been completely obsessed with PowerWash Sim 2 and I’ve been playing it every chance I get and loving every mintue, sadly, I’m nearly done.. 38/41 trophies and I’m just about to start the last career level, though judging by the last game its going to take a loooong time to clean.
October 2025
Playing: Ghost of Yōtei, PowerWash Simulator 2
October 28th: PowerWash Simulator 2 Update
I’ve been playing PowerWash Simulator 2 non-stop this week and I’m absolutely loving it so far. I know that probably sounds a bit sad, I’ve swapped epic sword fights for blasting grime off patios.. but honestly? I don’t care. It’s just so satisfying.
There’s something strangely peaceful about it: the hum of the washer, the sparkle of a freshly cleaned wall and that little “job complete” ding that makes my brain oh so happy.
It’s one of those games that completely quiets your mind, no timers, no chaos, just methodical cleaning bliss. A cozy gamer’s dream. 💦✨
October 23rd: PowerWash Simulator 2
It’s 3pm here and PowerWash Simulator 2 has just gone live. I’m downloading now and genuinely so excited to dive in, there’s just something oddly satisfying about cleaning virtual dirt.
October 22nd: Ghost of Yōtei Update
I finished the story today, just a few more trophies to get and I’ll have the platinum
October 18th: Ghost of Yōtei
I’ve been slowly chipping away at this since launch, I’m currently about 45 hours in and sitting at 50% trophy completion. Honestly, I’m in no hurry. I’m absolutely loving it and more than happy to explore every nook and cranny at my own pace.
First thoughts? Just wow!! It’s as breathtakingly stunning as GoT, I’m constantly stopping to admire the scenery. I’m enjoying all the new additions/features and combat feels just as good and fluid as GoT. This is a solid contender for my Game of the Year.
