The most popular game in exactly two genres, for every combination of two genres

This is not based on my opinions! If you think any of these classifications are incorrect, you can change it yourself on IGDB!

Companion lists in this folder: https://www.backloggd.com/u/tendog/lists/folder/genres/

As of May 7, 2024, there are 23 Genres on IGDB:
Adventure, Arcade, Brawler (aka Hack and slash/Beat 'em up on IGDB), Card & Board Game, Fighting, Indie, MOBA, Music, Pinball, Platform, Point-and-Click, Puzzle, Quiz/Trivia, Racing, Real Time Strategy, RPG, Shooter, Simulator, Sport, Strategy, Tactical, Turn Based Strategy, and Visual Novel.

That means there are 253 ways two genres can be chosen.
