Another crazy year punctuated by wonderful video games. This years list is quite brief so don't blink.

Showing 1-10 of 10 items

BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle

1. BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle

Combines several great franchises with an easy to learn and damn fun battle system. Pick red like roses part 2 for a good time.

Timespinner

2. Timespinner

Very Castlevania in a good way. Order of Ecclesia specifically. The story wasn't doing much for me at first but it grew on me too as the game went on.

Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st]

3. Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st]

Still one of my all time favorite fighting games. Great gameplay, great music, great style. [st] only makes it better.

Dead Cells

4. Dead Cells

Fun platformer combat that keeps you coming back time after time.

Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon

5. Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon

Very Castlevania in a good way. Dracula's Curse specifically. Different play styles with and without allies is a nice bonus.

Secret of Mana

6. Secret of Mana

A solid remake of an all time classic action RPG. Remix tracks don't do it for me, but the originals are an option so hey.

Magic: The Gathering Arena

7. Magic: The Gathering Arena

A slick f2p implementation of magic the gathering.

Donut County

8. Donut County

A great game for a day where you just need to shut your mind off and have fun.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

9. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Everyone is here!

Marble It Up!

10. Marble It Up!

Nails the look, feel, and sound the marble rolling genre should aim for. Goods simple fun.
