Games I played in 2022 ranked

New year, same old set up with new games and looser restrictions. Only requirement is that I have to have a good feel for them and see what the primary gameplay loop is about.

Dan the Man
Dan the Man
A nice little tribute to the fighting side-scrolling games of the past.
Crumble
Crumble
Step 1: Slingshot yourself with your tongue.
Step 2: Go fast.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: PROFIT!
Millipede
Millipede
A pretty good and solid arcade game.
Adventures With Anxiety!
Adventures With Anxiety!
A realistic portrayal of anxiety shows that just because it's annoying most of the time, it is trying to help you and wants to be tamed.
Winnie the Pooh's Home Run Derby!
Winnie the Pooh's Home Run Derby!
You say "HAHA funny kids' game why is it even recognizable online", then you get to Owl and he wrecks your entire day. Than Tigger...was honestly extremely easy for me, NGL. But then, the demon himself, Christopher Robin, awaits you. Do you dare have the strength to fight him and win?
Mappy-Land
Mappy-Land
Mappy was always nostalgic for me in a way, being one of the first games I really played, so I can't help but smile at this cute little twist of the formula.
Ice Age: Scrat's Nutty Adventure
Ice Age: Scrat's Nutty Adventure
This looks like a PS2 game with a PS1 camera and bland repetitive gameplay a la the worst shooters from the PS3 that I was able to play on the PS5 in the year 2022 when it came out in 2019 on the PS4.

Basically, it's bad.
Super Fantasy Zone
Super Fantasy Zone
Dang, that was actually a pretty fun shooter! Wonder if there are others I could check out...
Pooyan
Pooyan
I already forgot about it even after playing it 5 minutes ago.
Scratchin' Melodii
Scratchin' Melodii
This game popped up right the heck out of nowhere with its charm and music. If you like Parappa, you'll like this as well.
Boris and the Dark Survival
Boris and the Dark Survival
This was actively boring to play through. It just feels so mindless.
Nefarious
Nefarious
Just stick the comic, and check this out if it's on sale and you like the comic.
Oh...Sir! The Hollywood Roast
Oh...Sir! The Hollywood Roast
This game reminds me of a disappointing sequel to Star Wars!

6 points.
Donut Dodo
Donut Dodo
The superior game about donuts.
Kuukiyomi 3: Consider It More and More!! - Father to Son
Kuukiyomi 3: Consider It More and More!! - Father to Son
Consider the trilogy defeated.
Does not Commute
Does not Commute
The superior Mini Motorways, topped off with each character in the game having a unique and insane plot with a overarching theme about time travel.
Pocket Mini Golf
Pocket Mini Golf
It's mini golf and it's extremely limited. At least the title is true.
Chungus Rampage in Big Forest
Chungus Rampage in Big Forest
At least it didn't involve any inhumane working conditions.
Love You to Bits
Love You to Bits
I don’t believe it. All the others games I played this year…lost to an app.

Seriously though, Love You To Bits is just one of the most charming games I ever played. Even after picking it up after so long it still makes me smile ear to ear. Sure some of the puzzles can make my blood boil a bit, but when a game is having me laugh at just how much of an adorable dork Kosmo is and making me feel smart for solving these puzzles while making me marvel at just how much you can interact in a point and click game without saying any words, I think the game has more than earned a 10/10.
Crossy Road Castle
Crossy Road Castle
Better than the road version, but can still wear out its welcome if you try to play it all at once.
Friday Night Funkin' Indie Cross
Friday Night Funkin' Indie Cross
Just like the actual games they come from, Cuphead's songs were an absolute bop, Sans's songs were half middles and half very highs, and Bendy's songs were utter trash with only one good song that was revealed to us in the demo, meaning we didn't need to play the game for anything better from Bendy.
All of You
All of You
Yet another grand game from Alike Game Studios; this studio just has a nice solid track record for phone games.
Bring You Home
Bring You Home
Goddamn Alike Studios is so underrated it isn't funny.
