Any of the PAID games from Kairosoft. Dungeon Village, Grand Prix Story, Game Dev Story. He has since re-released all his games as f2p microtransaction junk, but the full price versions are generally really good.

This is the way. The 8 bit makes me happy in a way that I can’t explain.

N64 controller. It’s insane, but I love it.

Some good games I recommend are Alto’s Adventure / Odyssey, any bejeweled game, Cell to Singularity, Idle Slayer, Monument Valley, Reigns, Sky Force Reloaded, and Stick Fight Shadow Warrior. Hopefully that’s enough!

Assuming that you have Netflix, open it, scroll to games and open the section. There are tons of great games without any microtransactions or ads. They’re overwhelmingly commercial games licensed by Netflix.

I used to play Unblock Me. Made it maybe 1000 levels in various difficulties before stopping.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance - $8.29 CAD (80% off)

Probably my favourite ARPG. You play as a peasant with no skill, and that actually translates in game. If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at games where you effortless smash waves upon waves of enemies, this game is for you. Beating even the lowliest grunt can be quite challenging, forcing you to play in ways other than “beat everything up”.

The neat thing is the story is not only based on real life events, but all the towns exist (still to this day in the Czech Republic), the geography is super accurate (relative distnace, rivers, ridges, etc) and even the buildings are modelled off the real things (some are still standing, or you can still see their ruins).

This game ticked so many boxes for me, and is a steal at $8

filister,

Yes, the game is beautiful but the characters felt really shallow and the dialogue options and the story felt dull and uninspiring.

Wolfenstein. BioShock.

Telorand, do gaming w Anyone know any good shooters for switch?

Warframe? Third-person, but shooting is still a fundamental element (in addition to powers and melee).

Has one of the best F2P models out there, and runs on potatoes.

sleepybisexual,

Didn’t know that was on switch. Will download as its f2p

Telorand,

I don’t play anymore, but I sank over 1500hrs into it. They’ve had several content updates since then, too, so there should be plenty to keep you busy.

Word of advice for starting: focus on opening up every planet in your star chart. After that, you should have access to every mission and event.

Just finished last boss of erdtree. That one needs some serious tuning- some of the moves are far too powerful and annoying. Unsure if I want to roll another character since it’s been so long since I played through the game. Spent some amount of hours in coop helping others after beating it since I don’t really have another game on deck right now. Missed out on a fair deal of DLC quests and storylines because I didn’t read everything before my first run through, I could reboot a save pre-DLC and respec into something completely different and then play through it instead of a fresh character I guess.

Have yet to get to the final boss… But yesterday I did Commander Gaius. That was the first time in the dlc I had no fun. That guy has some of the worst hitboxes I’ve ever seen and beating him was an absolute chore. I was on the “DLC isn’t too hard” train, and still kinda am… But he was the first time I was like, “ok I see what some people are saying”

Yea annoying hitboxes and a lot of move past you attacks where you gotta go chase after him or he does the stupid charge which doesn’t stop right after it hits you and can hit you twice if you’re near a wall or hit you after the roll i-frames expire. Overall fairly easy moves to learn the dodge patterns, although the gravity stuff can be extra annoying.

Beleentoro Pro might be something for you. Basically a chill factory game, which I enjoyed for a long time. Other games by the developer Yiotro might be worth a look too.
There are also free versions of most of their games available, with ads iirc (not sure, has been a while). But if you don’t want the ads: the pro versions are really cheap. One time purchase for everything.

Another idea I have a puzzle game called: Mekorama by Martin Magni. The last time I played you got an option to pay what you think the game is worth at the end of the game. But you don’t have to.

Mini Metro by Dinosaur Polo Club is also really good, but comes with a purchase.

If you like tower defense, Bloons TD 6 by Ninja Kiwi is a must have. Comes with a purchase and has the option of microtransactions for cosmetics, but you can get those by playing as well. More importantly, it’s tons of fun.

In case you’ve got a Netflix subscription, check out their games. They have lots of games in their repertoire which you would have to buy if you went through the App/Play stores. (Bloons TD 6 should be included there for example.)

Edit: corrected Bloons TD 5 to Bloons TD 6.

awesome_lowlander,

Why btd 5 over btd 6?

Zacryon,

Whoopsie, that’s what I meant. Thanks for the question! :D

Eheran,

Yiotro for the win!

Neopets still exists and is going strong! The community is wholesome and so amazing, You can play it on your phone’s internet browser, it’s wonderful nostalgic break from everything else, and they have a TON of free games built in… Solitaire, Pyramids, Bullshit, Battleship, Minesweeper, Brick Breaker, Mahjong, Blackjack, Poker, Keno, etc.

I still play every day and have a BUNCH of goodies for new players, if you do check it out!

theedqueen,

I haven’t been on neopets in years and now I can’t login anymore. I think at a certain point they changed their login system and my email got lost so I can’t do password recovery anymore. Such a shame because I had put in a lot of work into that account as a kid and had millions saved up.

If you are having a hard time with fine adjustments try out using gyro aim in combination with a joystick or track pad for the larger movements
