27. Overcooked! 2 (2018, Switch 2)✅

An improvement of the first game. The mechanic of throwing the ingredients adds a new dimension.

26. Overcooked! (2016, Switch 2)✅

Very fun coop game. The controls are simple enough that anyone can join, yet it requires mastering to complete all the levels. The progression is well implemented.

25. Metroid Prime 4: Beyond (2025, Switch 2)✅

Quite similar to previous games. Some elements feel a bit updated but still fun. I reduced the score because of how messy the save system is (I lost my progression and can't complete it at 100% without starting a new game)

24. Helldivers 2 (2024, PC)

Best played with friends. It is a unique experience and the best example of how a live service game can be done right.

23. Super Mario Galaxy 2 (2010, Switch 2) ✅

Builds on the foundations of the first one and pushes some mechanics further, but the first had the main hub with a cool story, and this one has a reduced version of that.

22. HORSES (2025, PC)💯

Very bold and strong direction, unfortunately lacks quality in some technical areas. I also feel it missed some good opportunities to use the gameplay to enhance the narrative. It is still a game that stays in your mind.

21. Rayman Forever (1999, PC)

Remake of the first Rayman game.
The art is amazing; however, it is very hard to play nowadays. The game is too punishing.

20. Rayman Jungle Run (2021, PC)

Simplifies the gameplay of Rayman Legends so it can be played on phones. Fun for short playsessions.

19. Rayman 3 Hoodlum Havoc (2003, PC)

The progression is quite messy; it's not clear what the completion percentage responds to, and the bonus system is unnecessary. The levels are fun overall, but the bosses are a pain. The tone is too edgy for its own good.

18. Dead Island 2 (2023, PC)

Very similar to the original gameplaywise, with some additions like the ability cards and the fire propagation system. Does its job, although at times the tone goes a bit too far into the edgy side.

17. Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island & Emerald Rush (2025, Switch 2)

This DLC can be completely ignored, it is fun to play from time to time but doesn’t offer the depth I would expect. I rather have more worlds than this roguelike mode.

16. Donkey Kong Bananza (2025, Switch 2) 💯

It is impressive the game they managed to build with the destruction mechanics. It stays fresh and delivering new abilities for the whole duration. The only but is that it lacks the charisma of other Nintendo games.

15. Assassin’s Creed Shadows (2025, PC)

I like the option to swap between two characters with different playstyles. The game stays fun and interesting until it becomes too long and repetitive.

14. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies (2013, Switch 2)💯

I’m not a big fan of the 3D models, but the anime cinematics are cool. There are some great chapters, but overall, I feel that the stories aren’t as great as those in previous entries of the series.

13. Mario Kart World (2025, Switch 2) ✅

I wasn’t expecting such a drastic change from MK8, and I’m happy with it, as it feels fresh and marks a new chapter in the Mario Kart IP. My main complaint is that the open-world mode lacks ways to track completed missions, obtained coins, etc.

12. UNDERTALE (2015, PC) ✅

The game excels in its original narrative and how the gameplay mechanics work together with it. My only complaint is that some secrets are so obscure that you won’t find them without searching online.

11. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (2018, Switch)✅

One of those legendary game series that you grow up with and it never gets old. It just does everything good. I miss the story mode from previous entries though.

10. Mario Party Superstars (Switch, 2021)💯

It collects minigames from previous titles and includes online mode. There are some great new modes but it feels is missing some content (like more boards or characters) and progression.

Still very fun to play with friends.

9. Syberia 3: An Automaton with a Plan (2017, PC)✅

This DLC is a joke, it's 30 minutes of mostly cinematics that tells a moment in the story of the main game that has no importance whatsoever. I just found some of the dialogues a bit funny, but definitely not worth getting.

8. Syberia 3 (2017, PC)✅

The game has some serious bugs that make it a pain to play. Most of the puzzles involve walking to X to get Y and coming back, and the English voices don’t match the characters. It was a letdown after the great first two games. I didn’t find the story interesting.

7. Rayman 2: The Great Escape (1999, PC)💯

Each level is unique and offers new gameplay mechanics. Difficulty-wise, it is pretty fair compared to games from that era. It is enjoyable even after all these years. You need a lot of patches and tweaks to make it work on a modern PC.

6. Mouthwashing (2024, PC) ✅

I love how it goes full insanity, and every little detail plays in favour of the mood of the game. It is not afraid of breaking the rules and you just want to keep playing to see what the next surprise will be. The aesthetics are a delight.

9/10

5. Remember Me (2013, PC)✅

Fascinating setting for the story and you can see some mechanics that gave birth to Life is Strange later. The combat is original but a bit weak and feels like they could have gone beyond with it.
