Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you’d expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS’s dual screens. It’s also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I’m so sad there’s no sequel :(

    In certain circles it is well known, but Baba Is You is one of the most ingenious games for a long while and should be known even wider.

      One of the only puzzle games that made me think I’m dumb and give up. It’s fantastic

        Initially looks just a simple twist on Sokoban, but the game mechanic just keeps going deeper and deeper and blowing your mind.

        I could do that?

        I COULD DO THAT?!

      Every time you solve a puzzle, you feel like you’re cheating and that can’t be the intended solution. It’s such a tough game

      I’m not a gamer but I do enjoy Real Civil Engineer’s youtube channel, he’s played Baba Is You a few times.
