An RTS game. The second game in this series alternate timeline where Nazi Germany never existed thanks to Albert Einstein and time travel.

Command & Conquer: Red Alert! That intro was so fun!

Red Alert 2 to be precise, but close enough.



Game 37 - Steamworld Dig (I doubt anyone would have guessed this one)

Alongside VVVVVV, this was my first indie game. It's a fantastic digging game. Similar to Metroid how it uses power ups, but it doesn't lock paths behind specific moves (unless you dig too deep). You play as a cowboy-robot, whose uncle died and you use his pickaxe to dig. Your mission is to dig for treasure for a poor, dying town, and in the process you slowly uncover some robotic/futuristic world beneath the Earth, but there's not much lore behind all of it (or at least I didn't care for it). The gameplay is simple and addictive, the artstyle is fantastic, and like Metroid, uncovering all the treasures/secrets takes over you. It is very short, with only having 3 layers of the underground to explore, but it is all very unique and creative. I really liked it.

Game 36 - Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon

I never played the original, so there's not much for me to compare it to. Nevertheless, it is a fantastc game. Exploring rooms is practically the name of the game. Each holding some dumb or clever secret, while also capturing ghosts. The soundtrack is an A+, and while the story sucks, the writing and "acting" is really well done. But where I think it shines is at multiplayer. The same reason I used Ghostbusters as my hint! It feels epic, fun, and silly capturing ghosts with other people. Specially since everything in multiplayer is a compilation of singleplayer, but more complex and difficult.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Because of "Too much water"; Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire?  I don't know enough to know about green lizards though.
