The challenge is to finish three (or more) games in a month!
It doesn't matter how long or short the games are. And it doesn't matter if you're just starting a game or if you're already near the end. You should use your own judgement with what counts as finishing a game since it can sometimes be fuzzy.
Please post your goals for the month, sharing your successes, setbacks and impressions as the month goes by.
How Long to Beat is a big help, as a guide to how much longer a game will take.
52 Games. 1 Year. 2016. is a thread for if you're looking for a bigger challenge.

I finished:
Small Radios Big Televisions: Finished on the 19th, which is the latest in a month for me to finish my first game in the three years I've been tracking game completion dates. I played it on PS4, with a controller, and the controls weren't good. The reticle was fighting against me. The final of the five areas was surprisingly short after what came before it. But it was a good short puzzle game, which I finished in 2 hours.
Dark Souls 3: Ashes of Ariandel: I finished this DLC on the 20th. It was a very good way to enter the world again, and could help it out in my GOTY ranking. The final boss was an exhilarating conclusion and one of the more memorable fights in the series.
Kentucky Route Zero: Act IV: Finished on the 27th. I think this is the first time I've been up to date with the episodes, usually getting around to one when the next is already out. My memories of previous episodes are vague but the beautiful art style and the writing can still interest me.
I'll maybe aim for one of:
Dragon Quest VII: 3DS version. I am almost 70 hours in and doing the
.
Resident Evil 2 (Leon B): Maybe. I loved Claire's Path A last month and started on Leon's B Path. I might give this alternate path a good try.
