Grim Dawn
2016
I don't know what score to give to this so far.
About 3h in and I still feel like something is missing.
Perhaps it's just not my type of game

Streets of Rage 2
1992
Similar to the first game. This time the controls are improved and the attacks are much better.
The names of the enemies are something else

Sonic Advance
2001
This was quite popular back in the days. I remember watching my friends playing this in primary school but I never had a GBA. It was much later that I had the chance of playing this
This was one of the most talked horror games at one point and being a fan of horror I had to play it.
I got bored really quickly and the graphics made me dizzy (damn motion sickness). But I remember the first time I played it: I had to hide in a wardrobe because of that horrible scary creature. I still remember those minutes I spent in that damn wardrobe.

The Witch's Isle
2017
One of the most charming games I've tried for the android.
It's not a quick game as you need to understand what to do but it's beautiful artistically. The sounds are very nice and thought of.
It's not a game for everyone. The world is small and it's mostly a game about finding clues and where to go next. However, it's still worth mentioning as it's one of the most unique I've found (for the android)

The Baby In Yellow
2020
Played this one when I was looking for something scary for the Android. It's a bit ridiculous but super short
It's been a while since I played this and after my Plus' membership ended I didn't touch this again
Here They Lie
2016
I don't remember much of this game to be honest. I got it when I had the VR and if I hadn't seen it on my collection, I wouldn't remember its existence.
It was tragically bad. Everything related to the VR is not worth it (limited technology and horrible graphics that make your head hurt for hours).
It's a short game that is also limited by the rudimentary technology of the Playstation VR

SSX 3
2003
Got this game randomly and had more fun than I expected
When I got this one I was shocked by how bad it was (and I was not even a strict gamer). It's been so long since I played it that I no longer remember why it was so bad (but somehow the memory of hating this game stays)
Splatoon
2015
One of the most fun games I've played last decade. It's a shame the sequels are only available for a console that I don't like. I loved the idea of this game though!
Personally, you either like this game or you don't. For me, one needs to be very patient when playing this (a trait that I seem to lack).
It's a good and cute game anyway

It Takes Two
2021
I was excited to play this because of the multiplayer feature but I got bored really quickly
Dreams
2020
Quite innovative for the time it came out but quickly showed itself to be limited in terms of software
Ghost of a Tale
2018
I've been curious about this game for a while.
It's visually beautiful with a cute main character. You have to hide from big rats while on your journey.
Prepare to hide a lot and be asked to find a lot of items. The game play is very repetitive and there are a lot of guards protecting the area. After finding the guard armor you'll be able to fool the guards but you'll lose speed in contrast.
The world is quite small and you'll be stuck in one area the entire game. The good thing is that you can unlock new places by finding paths and keys. By unlock I mean doors and not new "worlds".
The story is not over the top but it frankly fits this game quite well. The dialogues aren't dreary as one would think by the style of dialogue.
It wasn't particularly great to play this game but it was worth it for the experience. Outside of the main areas you'll see that the landscapes are bare and apart that there's a few glitches.
Nice soundtrack
