Snake. There are many good versions of it, but I'd say my favourite is the one from coolmathgames.com .

Double Dare the videogame for the Nintendo Entertainment System

Edit: I accidentally hit the post comment button, so I might as well add something:

I think I might've mentioned this once before, but The Eternal Castle [REMASTERED] stood out to me for its stylized graphics and animation. Or if you're in the mood for a puzzle game, Temple of Snek might be good to try.

Thinking about it, reducing my entire game library to not suggested titles anywhere decreases its size drastically. It easily knocks like 20 games I would list normally.

With that said, Last Command was a nice bullet hell game. Would reccomend

I came across Blade Runner on GOG. I don’t remember when but I think it was on sale. I didn’t touch it for at least a year or two until two days ago. It is so amazing. It has the old school 90’s point and click vibe while being an amazing detective story (one I could imagine even being made into a movie itself).

[–] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think I've got that but have never played it. Must get it running one day!

[–] Balrog@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Enjoy! Only advice I’ll give for the game is to check every nook and cranny for clues.

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Especially because certain aspects of the storyline are random on each playthrough. Who is and isn't a replicant is not always the same, nor is how certain characters will react to the same dialog questions on subsequent runs. Depending on how the cards fall, this arguably also includes you.

Yes, I still have this on all four original CD's.

Fragile allegiance. Desperately needs a redo with a first person mode and better ui

[–] papalonian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Favorite is a tough one to pick. There are many games that have genuinely shaped my life, some that I still play consistently, others that hold a dear place in my heart but I'll likely never pick back up for various reasons.

Games that I play all the time and get the most value out of are not necessarily my favorite games. I've been playing the crap out of satisfactory since it's 1.0 release, and it's definitely up there, but it doesn't evoke the same feelings I had when I played Skyrim for the first time, nor do I think it will create formative memories like the Halo, Sly Cooper, or Ratchet and Clank series did for me.

Well shit. I guess I don't have an answer. Sorry.

[–] metaStatic@kbin.earth 2 points 1 day ago

ICO never gets mentioned and is legitimately my #1 all time with Another World a close 2nd that also never gets mentioned

Dark Souls 1. The only game I bothered getting all achievements for.

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Favorites come and go with the seasons, but objectively, the one game that we have played more than anything in my house is Silver.

We've bought all the expansions and created our own variation of playing with ALL the cards.

[–] myopic_menace@reddthat.com 1 points 1 day ago

I really enjoyed Doom 3. Has more of a horror vibe compared to the hack and slash nature of the rest of the series, but I feel its very enjoyable and doesn't feel as old as it is.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

So... A game that actually isn't my favorite, just the favorite amongst things that I've never seen mentioned anywhere?

Shit... Even the most obscure games I know about, I know about because someone else mentioned them.

I guess I'll have to go with Fightin' Herds? It's one of the few games I have that I bought entirely on the screenshots from the store page and I've never seen anyone mentioned it ever. In the simplest explanation: It's a 2D side scrolling fighting game with animal characters designed by Lauren Faust (the creator of MLP: Friendship is Magic). It's not a very good game. It's extremely cheap and unfair, like way more than any other fighting game I've played. The adventure mode is also kinda shit because it takes the already bad fighting mechanics and makes you do platforming and Smash Bros style horde fights against multiple opponents and the controls just aren't really designed for that shit (up is jump and it doesn't like you trying to jump forward so making what looks like an easy jump is harder than it has to be). I haven't even gotten 25% through the story mode :(

Actually... Matt Muscle should be told about this pile of dogshit for his Worst Fighting Game Ever series... 🤔

I don't know what you're on but the game is widely considered to be very solid and surprisingly great despite the whole MLP connection. There was also a lot of praise for the story mode and disappointment that it never got finished. It has high execution combos and some deeper mechanics.

[–] MissJinx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

tbf my favorite games ever are the management Kairosoft games. They are simple, no graphics but can be pretty challenging. It has a pretty loyal followers (like me) lol. Not every game is the best but it's an amazing little game to have on your phone

[–] rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

7 stud. Hold-em kids can't keep track of the muck.

[–] thesohoriots@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Always liked Power Pete, and if you don’t have vertigo, the Descent series.

[–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Tf2 maybe ? Honorable mentions: Tetris, Dwarf Fortress, stormworks, bg3

[–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 2 points 1 day ago (6 children)

You have never seen anyone recommend Baldurs Gate 3 or Dwarf Fortress?

Your original question reads like it's limited to this thread, not games you've seen recommended anywhere and everywhere
