27 is wrong, the two others are correct.

So, S.Peelman got the series right and Liquid_Laser the game, it is Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Graphic Adventure!

 

LucasArts was great at point-and-click games. Maniac Mansion, Day of the Tentacle, Sam & Max and whatever else. I always forget about these things with this list. Maybe I should give Day of the Tentacle a nod next year.

LucasArts were masters at it. A lot of the great games actually were made by Ron Gilbert.

Marriage can be a scary thing to confront, as it forces to make life changes that we can't undo, and will put us at the edge at many times, but we ultimately have to face this nightmare every time. Once the ordeal is all over, it makes you question if love is even worth it.

Besides Evangelion, we can thank this game for giving us a sexy remix of the theme song for Andy Williams. Heck, the game's OST as a whole is sexy, and goes well with some sexy combat. Did I mention this game is sexy?

#26:
A sequel to one of the greatest spin-off games from one of the greatest platformer series of all time. Features the same silky smooth engine with great music, but not as memorable boss and level designs IMO. I just wish this game got a remake, considering its predecessor got a remake on the PSP at least, albeit not as amazing as the original.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Hints for next 2 games.

30: Hint 1: Animals versus old women in this sequel.

29: Hint 1: There is no sun in this game, because unlike most games you fight in a unique environment underwater.

Worms 2?

Your hint just makes me think of the sheep and old women weapons in the Worms series

No, this game was a lot more mainstream.

SimCity 3000

  • Windows PC
  • 1999
  • Construction & Management Simulation
  • Maxis

'SimCity 3000' is one of the most famous games in the 'construction and management-simulation' genre, for short; the city-builder. And that's what it is, the player builds the best city they can possibly make, trying to earn as much money as possible and have it be a home to as many people as possible.

The game takes the gameplay of it's groundbreaking predecessors and fine-tuned it further to give a more realistic gameplay experience. There are many more things to build and zones will grow in a way more realistic than ever before and now, neighboring cities come into the mix although their influence remains minor.

I had played 'SimCity 2000' fairly regularly already, and the new game quickly grabbed my interest. It wasn't however, until I saw one of my aunt's cities that boasted many skyscrapers and luxury apartment buildings that my interest really peaked. I started creating city after city and each one got better but my magnum opus city still only got to around 350k inhabitants, using just half the map. The interest then moved on to another game years later, but definitely remained in the genre.

Though this game is not a survival horror game, a run-in with the game's terrifying antagonist sure makes it feel like it is.
