What games are you playing right now? Anything you'd recommend?

Another Crabs Treasure, free on PS Extra, not only feels great to play as a souls like and quite unique feeling but it is wonderfully campy. Love the tone, the VA is terrible but in the best way and same for the world design and asset use, it's all so stupid but great at the same time. And if you don't feel you want to play it as a souls like there are assist options to reduce the difficulty or many aspects of the difficulty you so please, you can even turn on a mode that gives Krill, the protagonist a handgun shell on his back that one shots everything as an extreme easy mode or you can actually slow down the game if you're reflexes are aging. I don't like difficulty options, hate them, even modifiers and sliders but what they've done here us the best I've ever seen, they are buff and there are three different tiers of them but the options are mainly focused around a shortcoming you may have. I choose to prevent fall damage and loss of souls on death and I'm thinking about extending the oarry window. Everything else feels very reasonable and about just right and after Khazan it's so nice to see small health bars again, they say this is hard mode but certainly not after Khazan.

Would highly recommend after 2 hours or so. (Opinion subject to change). One of the stats to level is MSG which "enhances the damage of umami based attacks" 🤣 Good game.
