Not out yet, but coming very soon, Another Crab’s Treasure (Check the release date trailer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEaLBYS6YMw ).

Of course, since it’s not out, we can’t say if it’ll be a good game or not, but it looks good, and is a colourful looking soulslike. (Which I am looking forward to myself)

The only soulslike that’s reasonably flashy yet simple enough that comes to mind is Code Vein

It’s slightly more cartoony than black desert, but has a high degree of character customization.

Story’s fine, but not required.

Combat was cool. I found it fine even on a bluetooth controller. Didn’t get massively frustrated with input lag.

Character builds can vary quite a lot, and are mostly viable. I played a glass cannon and my friend played a tank. They worked just fine alone or together. On that note, the coop is serviceable.

Probably wait for a discount.

flashgnash,

I’ve got code vein, got a fair way through it before my co op buddy bailed and then I didn’t pick it back up again

It is a little on the cartooney side as you say but it is cool looking

It might scratch the itch you’re talking about, and it’s also one of the greatest games of all time:

Tunic

I was going to mention this! I don’t think it meets the criteria completely, but it is quite Souls-like in many aspects.

shapesandstuff, do gaming w Flashy, simple souls like?

Might not fit exactly but check out Titan Souls

flashgnash,

Titan souls looks awesome and I may well give that a try, not sure it scratches the same itch as 3d souls likes though

perishthethought, do gaming w What are some games you find yourself frequently coming back to?

For me,

  • half life 1 and 2
  • portal 1 but not 2
  • psychonauts 1 and 2

They’re like chicken soup. So good.

geekwithsoul,

Just curious as why not Portal 2? That’s honestly one of my “chicken soup” comfort food games - Portal 1 is great but to me, Portal 2 is so much more.

perishthethought,

I think it’s the length, is all. Tough to commit to all that again now. It is great, for sure. We reference it in quotes all the time around my house.

smeg,

Portal 2 is definitely the one I pick up regularly, but specifically for the Perpetual Testing Initiative. I’ve already played the main story enough times, but dropping in for a few really well-made user-created levels with a little bit of new Cave Johnson dialogue is great!

Not sure exactly how much this fits the bill for you but Kena: Bridge of Spirits may be what you’re looking for. I personally describe it as a Pixar game with Souls-ish combat.

What about its combat is souls-ish?

I mean I love Kena, but it’s more a game comparable to other classical action-adventures such as the Zelda games, not Dark Souls as it places very little focus on accurate dodging and judging when not to dodge, plus it has no gameplay loop built around repeated death.

flashgnash,

I have tried out kena, it never really hooked me for some reason. Cool looking game, I like the art style

I think part of it was it felt very soft and family friendly, as you say it’s a lot like a Pixar movie

I want to add OpenTTD and Battle for Polytopia to the list.
OpenTTD is a free as free can be transport simulation. You have to get used to the controls, but I had some fun with it on my android tablet. Although I prefer to play it on PC.
Battle for Polytopia is a Civilization style game with awesome Voxel graphic for mobile devices. One game in standard mode lasts about an hour. It is free2play in a way that you get the game and the first 3 civilizations for free and can buy additional ones for a small fee. Offline playing is possible and I've never seen any ads in it.

Oh, and of course try Gwent.
This is a CCG in the world of The Witcher - known from the books, the games and of course the Netflix series too.
It's free to play, and very generous to free players. No ads, no pay2win, and you gain ressources to craft your cards very fast.
If you want to see some gameplay: I am streaming it every wednesday on Twitch.

One thing I’ve gotten into doing is instead of starting a new game I just run off in some random direction for an hour. It’s neat to stumble across things you built years ago

I definitely get what you mean

Simon Tatham’s Puzzles is a fantastic set of FOSS puzzle games. They look ugly, but they have easy intuitive controls with good instructions for many different puzzle games. (40, I guess?)

I don’t game very much, all the more so as I got older, but now and then I always return to the older fire emblem games and sometimes casual games like Diner Dash.

I have over 4,000 hours across all the trackmania games. So that, I guess. Most is 2,000 in United followed by a couple hundred in all the rest. 1,000 in trackmania 2020
