It isn't an exaggeration. In the same time span (2 months) I spent about 90 hours playing Oxygen Not Included and about 60 hours playing Darkest Dungeon. And that was me trying to play games less.

When I started I didn't know what dynamic programming meant and I didn't know how to implement a breadth first search. (I thought it required a priority queue). So a lot of time was spent reviewing things like N Queens and dijkstra's algorithm because I hadn't touched it since university.

In the end I spent too much time on things I never got asked and I should have been practicing on paper instead of a computer.
