Actual recommendations, but bring your friends AND beer:

Super SMASH Tv

Zombies Ate My Neighbors

———————————————

Only if you’re a masochist because you REALLY REALLY like flying through rings then Superman64 is probably the best game there is

I haven't seen "The London Game" on the internet; that can be a lot of fun.

Most of the other stuff I like I've seen somewhere or other.

Shallow Thought Of The Day: Any game mentioned in this thread twice is automatically someone who didn't read all the comments before posting.

[-] Liz@midwest.social 6 points 3 days ago

Or they did read all the comments, but someone posted their game during the time they were reading, so they never actually saw it. Then they posted their game and looked a stinky non-reader even though they weren't.

I always find it strange that nobody ever mentions World of Goo

I hate games like that but I couldn't put it down!

Quest for Glory series. Got me into RPGs.

[-] Sciaphobia@lemm.ee 3 points 2 days ago

I don't know about favorite, but a game I remember playing ball in the Nintendo, super Nintendo days was a game called Another World. Never met another person who has played it except one of it irl friends. Wikipedia claims it's one of the best video games ever made, oddly.

Kind of a platformer, kind of a puzzler, very surreal.

Loco roco 1,2,3 on psp. Played the shit out of them when I was a kid

So if I'm not counting close friends recommending games to me as "mentioned on the internet" probably Crystal Project, according to Steam. Otherwise, we'd need to go back to things that I was told about by family members way back in the day that I both like and haven't seen mentioned online since, which is trickier. Thief The Dark Project, possibly?

If you haven't played Thief: The Dark Project I recommend it and its sequels. Don't play Thief (no subtitle) though, it's AAA garbage.

That game is the shit. It's even easy to play on Windows now, which was very much not the case back in the day.

[-] bpt11@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

Some of my favorites that I don’t usually see mentioned would be Inmost, that game is fantastic, and Momodora Reverie Under the Moonlight. Honestly the whole Momodora franchise is great, worth checking out.

Super dodgeball for the NES.

Deceptively simple, but much deeper than it seems on first glance. Each character has 2 different special abilities that change the way you throw. Especially if you can get a few buddies to huddle around the tv with you, will keep you all entertained for hours.

The Incredible Machine! the original Rube Goldberg game. me and my friends played the shit out of it in the 90s. a few years ago i decided to give it a google and i found out that not only were there an expansion i hadn't heard of, there were five other games in the series.

[-] Sanctus@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

If its out of non-mentions it has to be Space Station 13. I hope 14 on Steam catches up soon, been thinking of lending a hand.

[-] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Not a video game but a boardgame called Nightmare

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nightmare_(Atmosfear_series)

[-] dirtySourdough@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Image Fight on NES. It's a top down scrolling shooter where you fly a space ship and pick up new weapons and attachments. I was terrible at it as a kid but I loved it and kept trying to progress further. I've thought about picking up a copy now but just haven't gotten around to it

Legretto

I was introduced to the game by an Austrian woman I dated in my 20s and 25 years later remains at the top of my list of party games.

Ligretto is a card game for two to twelve players. The game in its current form was designed by Michael Michaels and published in 1988 by the German company Rosengarten Spiele. Since 2000 the game has been published by Schmidt-Spiele of Berlin, Germany. - Wikipedia>

That game looks pretty similar to a game I know as "Racing Demons", played with regular playing cards

Tap Ninja: A Idle ninja-slayer game have more than 700 achievement.

Rusted Warfare: A RTS game.

Zortch: A Quake like boomer shooter.

[-] tatterdemalion@programming.dev 3 points 3 days ago

Well that rules out pretty much every video game. So here's my favorite card game instead.

It's called Illimat. It's very strategic but easy to finish a game in under an hour. It's essentially a game of pattern recognition and "harvesting" sets of cards. The goal is to harvest the most points each round.

Fitting into the overall theme of farming, there are four fields to harvest from, and each field is in a different season. Players can change the seasons by playing special cards, and the seasons affect the types of actions that may be performed in each field.

Everyone I've played with has enjoyed this game.

Urban Rivals. No one is talking about that game anymore. It used to be an amazing browser game. By now it's even on steam, but apparently they cut a lot of the animations so the crowd isn't happy about it. The card artworks are cool and the gameplay (was) fun. I don't know if it's still the same, as live games tend to change game mechanics.

Every other game I play('d) is mentioned at least sometimes (once a week).

Even stuff like Gothic, Golden Sun, Ragnarok Online.

[-] CatZoomies@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

My eyes naturally found Golden Sun in your comment, so I immediately upvoted before I finished reading your thoughts.

Now I’m curious about Urban Rivals and will check it out since I haven’t played browser games since ~2000-2006.

[-] SomeGuy69@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Golden Sun is love, so much so, that there's hardly a week when I don't stumble upon that name.

Has gotta be either Dusk or Ultrakill. Especially Ultrakill. I'm really bad at it, but it's so good that I couldn't care less.

Banana Nababa - like an old 8 bit action platformer, but it's just the bosses
