Loop Hero
Roguelikes can lay claim to some of the most creative titles of the last 15 years, including Loop Hero.
SOMA
SOMA isn’t as frightening as Amnesia: The Dark Descent, but that metric isn’t measured on a linear scale.
TOEM: A Photo Adventure
TOEM is seemingly the result of a lab experiment to create the coziest cozy game that isn’t a life sim of some kind.
Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty
The quicksave makes New ‘n’ Tasty almost automatically a better game than Abe’s Oddysee.
Amnesia: The Bunker
I don’t know what the scariest game I’ve ever played is, but Amnesia: The Bunker is high on the list.
Hollow Knight: Silksong
Hollow Knight was a game that I wished I could experience for the first time again, and Silksong provided that feeling as well as it possibly could.
Pilgrims
Pilgrims is easily Amanita’s worst major title.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2
Sigma 2 feels more like a mindless beat-‘em-up than the hyperactive skill test it’s intended as.
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX
I can fully see both perspectives on Pokémon Mystery Dungeon.
