Videogames you like but no one ever talks about

I'll start- OneShot, a cute little puzzle game you don't actually hear a lot from people. It's very interesting, and if it's on sale it's a definite pick up.

Starless: 21st Century Nymphomaniacs

Windosill, It's a short atmospheric surreal puzzle game.

Jet Set Radio

I could go months without hearing anything about it, if it wasn't for the music. Shame, it's such a damn good game.

[Yamada Zero]

Spy Fiction, though to be fair I never talk about it either - and with good reason.

[Mage]

Final Fantasy Tactics.

Ancient game for PSX/PSP, it has been a childhood favorite and even to this day I still play it occasionally on an emulator.

[ArenaSnow]

Didnapper.

[TwelveOf8]

Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned.

Such an underrated adventure game series. In fact it was the first first that taught me about the Grail conspiracy before the Da Vinci Code.

[Briza]

Minesweeper.

[GreatSalmon]

Resident Evil Outbreak

The concept is really good, as you play as actual survivors rather than trained agents. The virus timer is both interesting and annoying though. If there was a way to turn it off I think the game would be miles better, but then managing your other survivors is a pain and they'll just wander off to kill themselves. It has a lot of problems, but I love the game for its ideas and atmosphere.

Does Mass Effect Andromeda count?

Alpha Protocol. You play as a spy newly recruited to an organization and something goes awry forcing you to enact the alpha protocol. It has similar storytelling to the bioware games and offers the same kind of combat options as Deus Ex. Plus after each mission you get a score card, best score listed is the number of orphans you created.

Viva Piñata

A VERY strange, slighty experimental "gardening" game that was based off of a saturday morning cartoon, it had all the signs of a terrible game. That was until you actually played it and realized how insanely polished it was, how unique the visuals were and how there really wasn't anything else on the market close to it.

Game reviewers gave it mediocre scores due to it "not having a clear demographic" which doesn't make sense imo and to this day it still is under the radar.

The game´s perfect! Much more entertaining than Horizon: Zero Dawn.

Going to have to disagree on that one. HZD has a lot more depth and I like the story a bit more.

HDZ is visually it was more advance and beautiful with detailed and deep lore, but it lacks good character chemistry. NPCs simply came and went with no real emotional (only shallow) attachments between them and Aloy. Which was disappointing. or at least I was expecting deeper bounds.

[mickilennial]

Erend did not have any emotional attachments or character development? Really?

shining force 2, on sega genesis, from 1993

One of my favorite games on the PS1 was No One Can Stop Mr. Domino!, and it was hard as balls. You're basically a domino dude on a grid-based racecourse-esque track, and you have to lay down dominoes so you can push them over to activate floor switches when you loop back around. Pretty great concept, but the last level requires goddamn perfection.

I also remember playing Pac 'n' Roll for the Nintendo DS, where you roll a ball-shaped Pac-Man around 3D maze-like levels It's been ages since I've played it, so I honestly don't even remember if it was good, heh.
