For how good that game is, I was shocked to see it has only a few reviews on Steam after 4 years.
I definitely recommend it if you enjoy platforming and good level-design! It's currently on sales on Steam (3€), otherwise 10€ and also available on Switch!

Great precision platformer with an interconnected world. Gameplay is very simple (only one button outside of D-pad), the game relatively short, but the level-design and game-design are perfect. It's challenging but fair and never frustrating. A true hidden gem!
9/10!

Metroid Fusion ✅️
Pretty good game, altho the structure feels repetitive and too linear for most of the game.
The level-design itself is generally good and finding all the items is definitely challenging at the end, however I think Zero Mission is more fun to replay overall.

I think between Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy and Phantasy Star, PS1 is probably my favourite "first game".
While it's a product of its time, it feels a bit ahead of others with the small drawn scenes, enemy & background animations in combat, character writing, world building etc.

Ninja Gaiden 4 ✅
Excellent beat'em all overall, NG4 is sometimes PlatinumGames at its best with exhilarating gameplay, and some of the best bosses and music in the series.
However, the art direction varies between good and meh, and a few levels drag a bit, while Ryu's levels feel rushed.

Valkyrie Profile, one of my favourite games of all-time, was released 26 years ago on Playstation!
An exceptional RPG by tri-Ace blending side-scrolling exploration, original turn-based battle system, iconic soundtrack by Motoi Sakuraba, and deep narrative with an unique structure.

Catto's Post Office ✅
In this very cute game you're playing as a cat delivering mails, and it's their birthday.
You can meow, kick stuff and walk around a small town full of fun characters. It's very short (less than an hour), but very cheap and will probably put you in a good mood!

Phantasy Star was released 38 years ago!
One of the most influential series in the early days of "JRPGs", pushing narrative and characters writing forward, while featuring an original science-fantasy setting.
Also one of the first games with a female protagonist, Alis Landale!

Happy birthday to the GOAT of videogame directors, Hideki Kamiya...
One of the OG of Clover and founders of PlatinumGames, he directed Resident Evil 2, Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe, Ōkami, Bayonetta and The Wonderful 101. Ōkami sequel next!

FFXI and all its expansions are $10. Might as well be free. Thousands of hours of content and some of the best stories and worldbuilding in the entire FF franchise.

The Final Fantasy series turns 38 today!
Obviously one of my favourites and among the best videogame series.
My entry point in the series was Final Fantasy III 3D Remake, 18 years ago!
I have since then played about all the numbered entries, and plenty of spin-offs.

Grandia was released 27 years ago!
Just like Lunar, this RPG got such fun vibes with a story following a bunch of kids going on a grand aventure, another great OST from Iwadare and a nice battle system!
Takeshi Miyaji, creator of Grandia and Game Arts, passed away in 2011.😢

It's been 32 years since Phantasy Star IV was released, one of the best RPG from the 16-bit era, putting an end to this revolutionary series.
Directed by SEGA's iconic artist Rieko Kodama, who was also known for producing Skies of Arcadia, and unfortunately passed away in 2022.

Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure was released 27 years ago by Nippon Ichi Software!
I really loved this game, the idea of blending musical with RPG is fun, and it's very cute with some emotional moments.
Gameplay is extremely easy and basic, but since it's very short I didn't mind.
