Weekly Penguin

Weekly Penguin 885

So, a dark, dark gaming confession time.

I accidentally bought a loot box.

I know, shameful. But in defence of myself... you are looking at it.

Yes, this little, adorable clip-on Rockhopper plushie is apparently from a game called Piñata Smashlings. It turns out to be a popular brand aimed at kids, complete with its own online game and even Roblox events. I actually didn't know any of that, I just saw a happy penguin plushie in the shops. Coming home I realised it came with a 'DLC code'... which is apparently for a loot box containing a 'bronze item'.

Oh well, I guess penguins are always the exception.
