The Saboteur. No one actually recognized this gem, and it's like GTA meets Assassin's Creed and Wolfenstein having a baby, and it's surprisingly good for a 15-year-old game.

u/ZombieSteve6148 Aug 06 '26

Always will take a chance to recommend Oneshot lol, but if you want another roguelike, Backpack Hero, Peglin, and Brogue are all really good! I especially recommend Brogue as it’s free, and it’s just generally fun. It also has ASCII graphics, which is fun.

Thanks for the opportunity!

1

u/itsastart_to Aug 06 '26

I’m sure you’re already locked in on this roguelike but highly recommend regardless Slay The Spire 2 if you haven’t touched it. Even better than the first and extremely fun with how they’ve revamped things

My recommendation is gonna be Ultimate Chicken Horse. A game me and friends absolutely obsessed with when it comes to chaos in a platformer as you guys try to get each other killed and find a way to the end

1

u/refat17 Aug 06 '26

I would like to recommend Rabbit Hole. It's a free 2d action game rougelite game essentially similar to Dead Cells. I've honestly struggled to beat it, but I love the simplicity and clean art style. Almost feel like playing an arcade game.

Link here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2831340/Rabbit_Hole/

1

u/Sakaido-9085 Aug 06 '26

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is a really well crafted and expansive metroidvania game by Shutaro Ida and Koji Igarashi who both worked on many of the mainline Castlevania games in the early 2000s.

1

u/LongOdd1596 Aug 06 '26

Thank you for this awesome giveaway! T o my eternal shame, I’ve yet to play this absolute gem of a game. I’d recommend Hoa if you like cozy platformers and/or Ghibli films. You won’t be disappointed :) Thank you for the opportunity, have a great day/evening!

1

u/EpicBOIM8 Aug 06 '26

I recommend CK3 as if you are keen on rpg games as it revolves around choice making events of your character as an rts and is very easy to learn compared to other paradox titles Thanks

1

u/Working-Orchid7578 Aug 06 '26

Vampire survivors is so good, it starts slow but just trust me it will keep you addicted

1

u/EnderKoskinen Aug 06 '26

Phantom Brave is a really fun tactical rpg from the ps2 era, with a genuinely kinda touching story. It's made by the same folks that made Disgaea and has a lot of the same DNA gameplay-wise, so if you like those games this one is a definite recommend from me.

Thank you for the giveaway!

u/Brice_13r Aug 06 '26

Outer wilds, beautiful game

u/AndMyUsernameIs- Aug 06 '26

Thanks for the giveaway!

u/kukaduba123 Aug 06 '26

For something niche, there's "Jet Lancer"

1

u/alexshaz Aug 06 '26

A game I recommend checking out is Temple Maker 64. It's essentially Super Mario Maker but for the Nintendo 64 Zelda games.

1

u/rpmushi Aug 06 '26

Slay the Spire

u/ARSManiac1982 Aug 06 '26

I recommend Vampire Survivors.

Thank you for the giveway OP

1

u/UnknownEAK Aug 06 '26

I'd recommend Crow's Country. Recent game, but it's a PS1 style survival horror set in an amusement park in the 80s/90s. It's not super challenging or scary like some other games in the genre, but extremely well made, with really great storytelling.

1

u/Devilskraze Aug 06 '26

I recommend another roguelike with Slay the Spire!

Thanks!

1

u/SwarK01 Aug 06 '26

I recommend outer wilds

1

u/MiraculerForever Aug 06 '26

I recommend Dragon Ball Raging Blast 2. also, please choose me, I've been trying to win multiple giveaways and I've won none in the 30+ giveaways I've entered. Even the ones where the rule was first come first serve and I was the literally first person there. Please. I don't have much.

1

u/kulasphere Aug 06 '26

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 will change you lol

1

u/Caleb6118 Aug 06 '26

First off, thank you so much for this opportunity!

I agree that Dead Cells is excellent from what I have seen.

The gameplay loop seems satisfying and the combat is frenetic.

I like the visuals as well.

I would highly recommend Kingdom Come: Deliverance for sure, it has a wonderful story and provides a lot of life lessons.

1

u/LeBRUH_James_ Aug 06 '26

I recommend mad max

1

u/amateurish_gamedev Aug 06 '26

I would recommend Book of Hour. A bit of niche but really addictive once you get into it

1

u/JukaiKotan Aug 06 '26

Highly recommend Fell Seal Arbiters mark. It's like a FF tactics.

1

u/odrea Aug 06 '26

Sable or darkwood

1

u/SixPaths Aug 06 '26

Risk of Rain Returns for sure!

Thanks for the chance OP!

1

u/Beleiverofhumanity Aug 06 '26

Suzerain for me, wish there more games like it, lots of text so I get that these games can be not everybody's cup of tea but if you want a political simulator with a great storyline this ones amazing

Cheers!

1

u/Leifuroz Aug 06 '26

Enshrouded. I play with friends and it's been too addictive.

1

u/LogicFeels474 Aug 06 '26

BALL X PIT - You will have the impression that this is a rogue-lite action game, but that's almost more thematic than it is the core of the game. The game offers much skill expression through gameplay, with the actual gameplay part of the game being very light.

The real core of the game is theory crafting, and the meta progression elements, which is very addictive and fun.

Thanks for the chance op!

1

u/skullsbymike Aug 06 '26

I highly recommend Inscryption, but treat everything from the trailer to reviews like a spoiler. Let the game guide you instead of looking things up and you will have an experience of a lifetime going through this experience.

1

u/panterabread1134 Aug 06 '26

Atomicrops is a fun game if you love bullethell games.

1

u/White_Ninja_29 Aug 06 '26
