I can think of a handful of games that, despite being games that I’ve enjoyed, never really became part of a “genre”. Do you have any like this, and if so, which?

Are they games that you’d like to see another entrant to the genre to? Would you recommend the original game as one to keep playing?

    While it’s a series, it’s really the only franchise like it, so it kinda is its own genre: Katamari.

        I have that one in the alarm library on my phone.

        Its not good as a daily driver - if you use it every day you will end up with the song stuck in your head. But its great as a sometimes tone, I think I have it set for Wednesdays at the moment.

      I’ve been meaning to try that game where you play a hole that gets bigger by devouring everything.

        If it’s the same game I’m thinking of (but can’t remember the name of), I remember it feeling like a much more shallow version of Katamari. You never realize how important the rolling physics truly are to the Katamari experience until you take them away. It was a pretty neat idea, but just didn’t capitalize on it very much.
