[Veknoid_Outcast]

I went a little crazy and did a top 10

10. Lil’ Guardsman - a charming, humorous adventure game with clever deduction mechanics

9. Animal Well - a mysterious, neon-soaked Metroidvania with secrets galore

8. The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom - a bold departure for the series with exciting experimental gameplay

7. Natsu-Mon: 20th Century Summer Kid - a nostalgic, affective life sim that makes you feel like a kid again

6. Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown - an outstanding backtracking action-adventure game with crisp combat and challenging platforming

5. Shiren the Wander: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island - a ridiculously deep and replayable rogue-like RPG with high-stakes tactical decision-making

4. Nine Sols - an unusually great action-platformer with acrobatic moves and tense, risky deflection-based combat

3. Bakeru - a loving tribute to Goemon featuring wildly creative level designs, rewarding exploration, and surprisingly robust brawling gameplay

2. Unicorn Overlord - a remarkable tactical RPG with intricate, involving strategic combat, peerless artistic assets, and a mountain of content to enjoy

1. Balatro - an unassuming, approachable, powerfully addictive rogue-lite with extraordinary tactical depth, endless replayability, and the sort of hypnotic in-the-zone gameplay that will keep you playing until three in the morning
