Recommend me a game and I'll do the thing.

My time has come. I have hopped onto the trend that all users of this site inevitably hop onto. You may comment a singular game here, and I'll be contractually obligated to play through it and make a review.

There are some rules though.

-If I very recently made a review of a game, I probably won't have much else to say about it, so no games I reviewed less than one year ago.
-One recommendation per user. I'll probably allow a second recommendation after I finish the first though.
-I don't have a PS4, PS5, XBox One, or XBox Series. I plan on getting one of those eventually, but keep in mind that games from those consoles could take some time for me to get to. My PC also isn't incredible so I may not be able to play all of the most recent games.
-The order I play in will be based both off of order of recommendation and length of game. If the first person was to recommend me Persona 5 and the second person recommended Dynamite Headdy, I'd play Dynamite Headdy first.
-I'll make sure to update the list when I complete and review a game. All completed games will be below the Glover wall. I'll also @ you to make sure you see it.
-If I already plan on playing a game eventually and you recommend it, I may play your earlier, but not necessarily.
-No promises of how long it'll take to play your game.

Anything else I'll just clarify in the comments. I'm looking forward to what you guys recommend me.

There are a lot of games that I'd really love to recommend, but the main one that pops to mind right now and it's actually on your wishlist is OneShot. For me personally, it's some of the best I've played in the entire year and in a long time, and even if you don't end up loving it as much, I think it's a game that's absolutely worth going through.

@DeemonAndGames I know there's a few versions of the game. Is there a specific version you recommend?

Perhaps Dusk might be fun for you. It's on the Switch and PC so its fairly accessible. It's a Boom Shoot with excellent movement and levels filled with secrets.

@DeltaWDunn I played the 2016 one (The Steam release) and thought it was perfect; The World Machine Edition also looks fine enough, but I think this game is better experienced playing it on a PC. Haven't tried the original 2014 release, but I can't imagine it being more defenitive than what would come after. I really hope you enjoy it when you play it! :D

I always recommend Yomawari: Midnight Shadows, its a very good horror game and it doesnt take too long to finish at all

11 months ago

@DeemonAndGames Alright, I'll do that then.

@ Been a while since I played a good Boomer Shooter. Looking forward to it.

@Moschidae I think I heard about that from NitroRad. I'll let you know when I finish it.

Ill always shill for Tet. Its free and takes like 15 mins to complete so should be good for your purpose

@LordDarias I think I've heard of that but I know nothing of it. Looking forward to it.

@LordDarias I finished Tet and reviewed it. https://www.backloggd.com/u/DeltaWDunn/review/880940/

You can recommend another game. I'll probably play that one after the current entries, though.

@Gare I actually played that one fairly recently. I'll try and go through it again at least on easy before reviewing though.

I don’t recommend only using the mouse

11 months ago

@Gare Looking back, I'm not sure why there's a mouse fighting alongside the human, rock monster, and dragon.

Druidwalker then, also a short game, but not 15 mins short. Its a 0 tutorialisation roguelike, go in blind

Paradise Killer is an easy (you can't die), fairly short, VN-adjacent first person exploration game that hooked me with its aesthetic and wild lore. I recommend if any of those things appeals to you; if none of them do, I do not recommend :)

11 months ago

@cowboyjosh I haven't played many VNs, but I'm not against the concept or anything. I'll give it a shot.

Hotline Miami is already on your wishlist and it's pretty incredible.

@Gare Btw you can recommend another game now if you so please. Just keep in mind it'll take some time for me to get to if you do recommend one.
