Games Played in 2023 Ranked
I guess Ill rank em as I go. Dont take the specific rankings too seriously, especially those at the top but not in the top 3 and those at the bottom, theyre pretty interchangeable and I could change my mind retroactively
165 Games
Timeless classic cooked up by Apple's own Steve Wozniak
Kicks Ass
Its the 1st of February and this might already be my GOTY
Really cool existential beat em up, very bold design decisions, which is to say 50/50 on whether or not youll enjoy or despise this game
It might not work for you, but by god it worked for me
Kino platformer/run and gun
Great character focused farm sim
Cool little historical sewing sim
Banger game, an accessible take on the rhythm + action hybrid
Lovely Atmospheric Exploration game/survival sim about the grieving process
wonderful climbing sim
Whats the VN equivalent of page turner? Dialogue Box Clicker?
Heartbreaking
Normalize games with a cool core mechanic being over and done with in an hour or two
Replay. A stylish open world mystery
Replay, originally played the base edition. I dont quite like the farewell edition as much, but its still great
Alas, most of this game's innovations were really taken from German Expressionist game design
Lovely narrative adventure game about helping out at a geriatric wing of a hospital. The mundaneity, humanity and independence of these characters from the player are wonderful to see
Really enjoyed it, very clever
Couple of gags
Quite like these Bitsy games. I like how even though the map loops, the yachts are on the "higher" area doing fine and the struggling people are on the "lower" area
I feel, conflicted about it
Lovely
Charming and cozy
An interesting evolution of Cosmo D, slightly infuriating at times but funny and cool
Good vibes, a personal story about nostalgia, growing apart from your friends and our expectations for our own lives told in 30 mins through a minimalistic retro inspired bus simulator, its akin to an indie short film
Lovely, charming, funny and short
Cool shmup
Replay. Every time I play demon souls I love it and hate it even more than last time
A very fun, tonal mess of a disaster sim
Really cool 0 tutorialisation roguelike
I liked Ringo a lot better
I love Imperialism!
Rough in places, but overall a smart engaging minimalistic sim.
Yeah, trash that record store!
Lovely medical/epidemiological detective game which is tragically riddled with bugs
For all my gripes I still enjoy this game too much to put it any lower
ye
Great stuff
This is absolutely insanely ambitious for Atari 2600 and disproves my intuition that no 2600 would be all that complex to require a guide. Insane. Also dope cover art
Addicting Urban fantasy jrpg. A bit samey and the plot is nothing but I like the combat and thats enough for me
Funny short wario ware like thing about cooking dinner for vietnamese new year
A charming, energetic adventure game adaptation of the boris vian novel of the same name
Stare out da window
Golden Boy, Born To Love and Live For Joy, I'm a Golden Boy
Cute
Its pretty good, but padded and didnt really strike much of a chord with me personally
Controls have a learning curve, but classic
Kind of cool
Pretty cool diving sim
Cool little cartography game
Pretty cool game, reminds me of Deus Ex, unfortunately its strong first impression kind of dribbles away into slightly uninteresting stuff, it makes its most potent statements in the first hour.
Very ambitious, I think its the first game to have horizontal scrolling? Whatever the case it was definitely the one to popularize the concept
A game too good for its own...good
Charmingly amateurish photography sim
Short, sweet and kind of freaky
So far my favourite pentiment inspiration game. A cool story about a found family which combines mundane interpersonal drama with supernatural magic stuff
Pretty good adv game, even if it falls off a bit
Pretty cool VN about a taxi driver in Chapinero, Bogotá
Charming Solarpunk platformer
Cool
Adventure Game/Walk Sim about a cult, gripping
Thought it would be a shitpost but its surprisingly sincere. I can't really be mad
Interactive Fiction piece about fictional disease in industrial environment
Pretty cool, but kind of a mixed bag
Pretty Cool 3D Platformer, if you like the grinding sections in 3D sonic games this is probably the game for you. Short and cheap
Good stuff
Its a budget No Man's Sky, harmless if not too amazing
Pretty cool but jesus christ if I am required to wall jump one more time I will uninstall the game when it comes out
The First 15/20 hours of this game would be on my top3 of the year, regrettably the game continues past this point
He just like me fr
It was cool, a reverse detective game
Its good but man does the difficulty spike
the definition of mid
good
Im being pretty generous here. Beyond being based and the sheer funny novelty of "palestinian max payne" the original is undercooked and the remake is basically in early access. Thankfully you get both bundled into one for the same price but just bear in mind its quite rough around the edges. Fun though
In truth I really did enjoy it, but that ending among other things keep me from putting it any higher
Man cannot live on quirk alone
I simultaneously respect Kane And Lynch for what its trying to do, kinda, whilst also never wanting to put myself through 3 hours of dull cover shooting
Its fine... Basically an adventure game/vn set in a sort of choose your own adventure creation myth underwater. Its alright
Outstayed its welcome
Its fine
idk its a short vn
An okay enough adventure game, a shame it didnt live up to its potential
Mostly compelling, but let down by subpar translation, transparent branching and a shit ending
Ok I guess
Cool but outstays its welcome
Couldnt stick the landing unfortunately
Why did I play this?
Charming and funny, but gets old real fast and this is a long ass game. 10 hours was enough for me, thanks
Idk, felt flat to me
Bleh
its okay but roguelike elements are pointless
An Impressive attempt at a port, but I would much rather just play the arcade
One day I will make "naturalistic" dialogue illegal
Another one of those games who's message I vibe with but must put down. Its a pro pedestrian horror walking sim. Mostly its this high cause the in game phone had an "audiobook" app which opened up the steam browser to the librevox page for Upton Sinclair's The Jungle and thats both funny and based
Lame, honestly
Greedfall is a game that is almost good, its a damn crime they wasted such a cool setting on such a mid game, its just a witcher 3/dragon age/falloutNV done with a much smaller budget and not as interestingly.
bleh
