1. Vampire Survivors
2. Horizon Forbidden West
3. Dome Keeper
4. Far Changing Tides
5. Peglin
6. Rogue Legacy 2 (this game is rapidly gaining spots late in the year)
7. Cult of the Lamb
8. Cursed to Golf
9. Isle of Arrows
10. High on Life
11. Bounced of game of the year: Tunic

High on Life would have been higher on the list if I didn't run in to a game breaking bug that saw the second boss disappear on me TWICE before I got a second gun. It was a frustrating enough difficulty spike and both times left me stuck in the level with nothing to do but restart at the last checkpoint with about a two hits left on the boss' health bar. I may be bouncing off of this game altogether.. we'll see if a patch comes out while I'm on vacation over the winter holidays.. But I've got lots to unlock in Vampire Survivors with the DLC..

I'd also be remis if I didn't mention that me and the wife finally finished the endgame of Astroneer this year. I've got over 1000 hours logged in Steam on the game and it was a very big part of my gaming over the last few years. But 2022 was when we got back to it and "completed it".
