I played some video games in 2020

I had a few others I enjoyed and wanted to mention, but let's leave this at just 10!

Showing 1-10 of 10 items

Genshin Impact

1. Genshin Impact

Turns out, if you want to get me into gacha you just have to make a good game around it. Go figure!

Life Is Strange 2

2. Life Is Strange 2

The characters aren't quite as likeable as Max and Chloe but damn this game swings hard at what it's going for.

Yakuza Kiwami

3. Yakuza Kiwami

It's more Yakuza. My only complaint is that they added *too much* Majima after his popularity from Zero. He was so cool in the original Yakuza *because* it was a rare treat when he appeared.

Tabletop Simulator

4. Tabletop Simulator

Played it on and off with friends for a few years, but this year - for obvious reasons - it really hit off.

Snatcher

5. Snatcher

This is that cyberpunk game that everyone's been talking about, right?

Euro Truck Simulator 2

6. Euro Truck Simulator 2

Amazing "switch your brain off for a while" experience. I entirely blame Alex Navarro's stream for getting me to play this.

Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist

7. Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist

Simon Amstell is an absolute treasure.

The Quiet Man

8. The Quiet Man

Legitimately the most fun - if maybe for the wrong reasons - I've had out of almost any game this year. It's easy to dunk on but it was short enough to not feel tiresome and honestly I would replay this again before even glancing at most games these days.

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective

9. Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective

Missile is still the best dog in all of video games.

Signs of the Sojourner

10. Signs of the Sojourner

The highlight of that itch bundle for me.
