Sacrifices much of what we've come to expect as traditional "fun" to make a truly terrifying experience. Easily tops my list of horror games.

I was never optimistic enough to think Hatoful Boyfriend would reach the west, let alone on Steam and consoles, but it did. Surprisingly deep and dark.

The game that popularized permanent death in modern games. If you have interest in roguelike mechanics, Spelunky is the best entry point.

Possibly the single most fully fleshed-out example of what can be done with RPG Maker assets.

A witty exploration of video games tropes that never condescends much to any group. Be sure to play the demo as well: it's original content!

A home, lovingly recreated, which will leave you feeling like you really knew this family, and really cared for them.

Complaints about the linearity of FFXIII were met with the ability to literally travel anywhere across time and space. This is a wild game.

Though juvenile on the surface, Isaac Rebirth has a surprising level of emotional depth, all of which is open to player interpretation.

Narration that responds to your actions, and a very important ending choice.
