Big EV charger push across Doncaster this month. Every other driveway wants one now.

Proper satisfying match-3 with actual live multiplayer — didn't expect to get hooked Right, so I downloaded this thinking it'd be another one of them mindless tap-tap games you play while waiting in the van for a customer to answer the door. And yeah, it is that — the match-3 core is clean, chunky, properly satisfying to play. The board pops and cascades like a decent electrical circuit completing, everything lights up when you chain a CIRCUIT STORM or trigger THE NULLING across the board. The special tiles — Stripe clearing lines, the Antigrav UFO abduction pulling pieces off — they click into place quick enough that you're building combos without needing a manual. What got me staying was The Bay, the three power-up slots you charge up and fire yourself. That bit of control in a genre that usually just throws randomness at you makes a real difference. The live multiplayer is what sets it apart though, proper real-time 1v1 duels with voice chat on push-to-talk — I was chatting to someone from I don't know where while both of us were scrambling away at our boards simultaneously. The clan system's in too, shared harvest silo, proper create-your-own with emblems and colours. The Harvest League has an ELO ladder and win/loss tracking that actually means something because there's no pay-to-win nonsense — cosmetics only, full stop. The 1v1 ceremony wrap is still a bit rough around the edges if I'm honest, the matchup and podium stuff feels mid-build, but the actual live spine underneath it works solid. Twelve levels isn't massive but it's a proper foundation and the multiplayer makes the legs longer. 👍 Real-time 1v1 with voice chat works genuinely well · Cosmetics-only means the ELO ladder actually means something 👎 1v1 ceremony/podium wrap still feels unfinished ⭐ 8/10 🎮 Cropsicles (TYGA.GAMES, 2026)

Running cables through a listed building near Doncaster. No chasing walls, all surface trunking. Challenging but satisfying.

Happy to pay $0.99/year if it means no ads, no tracking. Small price for actual social media.

Wet Monday morning in Doncaster but the kettle's on and the van's loaded. Crack on.

Did the maths: the average electrician earns more than the average graduate. Food for thought.
