  • The whole We Were Here series is marvelous. Asymmetrical co-op puzzle games. My friend and I’s recent games list looks very similar to this.

    We also do a lot of single player games with one of us streaming over discord. When it’s a slow-burn puzzle or mystery game, it doesn’t really matter who is actually controlling.

    For those types, I really recommend Return of the Obra Dinn. We’re currently working our way through the entire Frogwares Sherlock Holmes collection. The old ones are so terrible, which is a greatness all by itself.





  • I’m a SOC Analyst in my mid 20s.

    I did a boot camp, it got me a job. BUT I already had a degree, though in a completely unrelated field. For people just out of college age like me, that degree requirement was much more about showing you’re capable of committing to something than it was about specific knowledge.

    You’re going to need to get certifications no matter what you do. My boot camp prepared me for Sec+ and CySA+, but you could 100% do that on your own.

    At the end of the day, it’s going to come down to how much time/money you’re willing to invest. If you’re able to get a degree without significant hardship, I’d do that. There’s so much value to education, no matter the subject.

    If you’ve got less money and time than that, consider a boot camp. I had an amazing time in mine, and the schedules are often designed for working adults. My class had people of all ages, though the ones with some previous interests/hobbies in IT definitely got the most out of it.

    Feel free to DM me, mentoring and networking is a huge part of cyber!
