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 :(

CrossCode. It's an SNES-style action RPG with very fun combat, 2D-Zelda-like puzzles, and a genuinely charming well-written story that was made in HTML5 and JavaScript for some reason. It is genuinely my favorite game of all time. I habitually proselyte this game to friends, but check it out for the love of God

Actually one of my favourite games of all time. Please please please check it out if you haven't already

This is an insanely good game for how little it is actually talked about. But every time somebody does talk about it the only thing I hear is that it's amazing. I think it's also one of my favorite games too.

I only heard about it a couple months ago, but it turns out crosscode is pretty much my idea of a perfect game. Feels like it was designed for me. I haven't finished it yet, but I was about 3/4 done when Diablo 4 came out. Looking forward to getting back to it once my friends slow down on D4 a bit and I have some time again.
