Pixel Survival Online Game: Addicting yet Therapeutic

When I was recovering from a kidney surgery few months ago, I spent a lot of my time either sitting on the couch or resting on the bed for about 1.5 weeks before I could start walking around without being in pain.

At that time, my kids were still on their summer break so they mostly stayed home as well. Sometime during that 1 and a half week, my 8-year old son decided to teach me this game called Pixel Survival. Before that, he had been trying to teach me to play Minecraft but that game for me was too complicated. I just honestly didn't have the patience to learn how to use the controls, let alone understand the rules, so he gave up on that. He said this other game Pixel Survival game is somewhat similar to Minecraft but easier to play. And boy did I get hooked! LOL.

It is an online interactive game you can play with multiple people on your "friends' list". We could all be on the same game while I was on my phone and they were both on their tablets. The whole the idea was to help each other out to complete various quests.

It was a lot of fun, but as with any other game apps, it was quite addicting. My kids and I definitely enjoyed it and it helped me through my recovery

:) yipee! I could never get the double-jump on that one..

Parkour! :P

I remember that surgery of yours! I was like days-old in Steemit at that time. I'm glad you've recovered so well.

PS. Your son is so sweet!

Yes! I think we both must've signed up around the same time. I had the surgery July 5 and I think I started Steemit around the 3rd week. Steemit became theraphy for me too :)
