Fall Guys has to be one of my favourite games of all time, though it didn't start that way. I didn't play FG much in 2020 or 2021 bar the first 2 months of its release, during which I played it religiously. After being shelved for almost 2 years I came back to it with a friend and it's been a mainstay game since then. It offers cross-platform play, which surprisingly enough GTA V doesn't offer (which is why we started playing this), and it's matchmaking system is nearly perfect in the fact that it's pretty easy to win if you know what you're doing, but if you win too often the game will match you as such. I can't count the number of times I've won a Fall Guys match and it not be a huge jump out of my seat moment, each match feels fresh and each win feels just like the first. It's almost impressive how long it's lived for considering it's quite a gimmicky game with no story and solely multiplayer.

The only reason it's not higher is because of the variety. The game recently introduced Player Created maps and highlights, however when you play enough the courses all start to repeat and this can create biases that impact your matches in the future. At the start it was all sunshine and rainbows but nowadays if I get See Saw or Frantic Factory the match just becomes a slog because those maps are notoriously misbalanced to benefit the players in first. With map tweaking and maybe some new maps introduced, and a balance fix for all of the rounds, I can see this getting a higher rating.
