Discolored
A short little point and click puzzle game. Some of the puzzles are a tiny bit obtuse, but my partner and I solved it in 2-3 hours without a walkthrough or anything. Doesn’t overstay it’s welcome.

Pokemon Legends Arceus
This. Oh my Arceus, just, this. This is what Pokemon has wished it was for the last 25 years. None of that bs railroading, none of that “oh you must catch one Pokemon then you know everything about it.” This game does so many things right and so many things that the franchise has needed…

Rotaeno
Did you know, that in terms of arcade and mobile gaming, rhythm games as a genre are the most innovative? Like, you have games with knobs, games with levers, 2D input areas, mashups with entirely different genres, and now, games that utilise the gyroscope in your phone.

Factory Town
This is a weird one to recommend, I saw it on the Jingle Jam bundle and thought why not give it a try. Turns out its actually an incredibly deep management simulation styled like a town simulation game, with a fairly wide range of things to manage and consider.

Ori And The Blind Forest
Ori is an interersting one, unlike most other games in the genre, it’s a metroidvania that isn’t focused on combat, but rather a lot of tricky platforming through difficult terrain and spiked tunnels. There are some enemies that get in your way, but in general the way to tackle them is to just dodge their…

Antimatter Dimensions
Oh christ this is a rabbit hole and a half. I could never get into idle games to start with, most of them were on PC, and they didn’t really gel with me at first, so I missed things like Cookie Clicker. Then someone showed me AD and my life kinda went all downhill from…

Spirit of the North
Spirit of the North is a fox game in its purest form. You play as a fox, like, an actual fox, who can yip and wag their tail. Eventually you meet a friendly spirit fox who will help guide you on your adventure and try to explain to you what’s going on.

Crash Bandicoot Trilogy
Got this game for the nostalgia, and now I actually like Crash 1. I recomend this for everyone who like oldschool platformers, but I especially recommend this game to the people that, like me, played and liked Crash Bandicoot 2&3 as a kid but didn’t really like Crash 1, as this version of crash 1…

Groove Coaster
Groove coaster is an arcade game with some home releases, where the gameplay involves the player following a track, and performing inputs as they pass by them. While I do recommend playing the original Felica enabled Arcade GC version, any version will be just as fun.

Freedom Planet 2
So if you enjoy Sonic, you’ll like Freedom Planet and it’s long awaited sequel Freedom Planet 2. You get a small cast of playable characters, Son– I mean Lilac the dragon, Carol the wildcat, Milla Basset the pupper, and new to this game, the team’s panda friend, Neera. Each character plays differently.
