Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you’d expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS’s dual screens. It’s also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I’m so sad there’s no sequel :(
Fallen London; a text-based, story-driven ongoing browser game about an alternate-history London that was traded by Queen Victoria in exchange for her husband being spared death and literally carried by a cloud of bats to a massive underground cavern where Hell is just a train journey away.
It’s a niche game in a niche genre, but damn I love the writing and setting so much. Sunless Sea is set in the same world, if anyone has played that too!
Sunless seas and sunless skies are both pretty sweet. I never got very far because I’d always get caught by some over powered creature before I was ready. I really like both games though.
I really liked the idea of this game. I played it a lot. I feel like there was no progression, like I was getting nowhere fast. Eventually I stopped playing.
It scratched a similar itch to Kingdom of Loathing
Played Fallen London for a while. It was pretty cool, but I never felt like I actually got anywhere.
