Star Fox 64.

Nobody guessed my #14, which is quite surprising considering it was Metal Gear Solid 3. Were these hints that difficult?

#14: (1) Lot of weird people in the Jungles of the Soviet Union. (2) There can be only one Boss. (3) Sniper Duel.

Anyway, here's the last game before my top 10 that hasn't been guessed yet.

#13: (1) Many kings have come and gone, one succumbed to poison, another to flame, still another sleeps under a city encased in ice, and for each king a queen appeared, a fragment of the soul of the first man, all searching for purpose. (2) Many kingdoms have come and gone, but this one was called Drangleic. (3) Many undead have come and gone, but only one can take the throne and start the cycle anew.

Yes. It’s impossible to have a hint that isn’t immediately obvious for that game.



Guess I'll do my top games hints but I'll start at #15

The epitome of inflated levels and stats, but movement is one thing that quickly becomes an issue. Worry not, we’ve got you covered with stacking and throwing, allowing for great distances to be covered! Wait? Not a new concept? Oh right, this version isn’t the original

Well, it's Disgaea. Which one you ask? Ugh. Not the original. Let's say Disgaea 2.

#18 Dragon Quest Builders
guessed by Landale_Star
platform Switch
release year 2016
developer/publisher Square Enix
genre sandbox
links Wikipedia

As I saw the ads in the eShop for the game first, I thought: what in the nine hells is that? Minecraft combined with an old-school RPG? I find Minecraft boring, so this is probably also unfun. Then a demo dropped on the eShop, and I thought: well, let's give it a try. Two hours or so later I stepped on a transportation tile to reach the next island - and got a message that the demo ends here. I had totally forgotten I played a demo. Then I was loooking up, how long I had to wait for the real game to drop and it turned out that I had to wait waaayyyy too long.

Yes, Dragon Quest Builders is at the heart a Minecraft clone of sorts. But it adds just enough stuff to make the whole result very enticing for me. Building up a village, solving missions for the people, fighting monsters - this all works so well together. So I was going on an adventure to bring the light back to the lands.

Now Square, you have still to bring over the first ever announced game for NX: Dragon Quest XI. I'll play Builders until then.

Wait, I just realized it's you! (thought it was Cloudman at first based on that drawing, but then again he also left)

It's been a while, welcome back!

That was my plan :p

We made a return about the same time though
