      I struggled completing Echoes of Wisdom felt really fun when I was just sending echoes out to fight Pokemon-style. My issue was the leaned too hard on Wisdom= Puzzles and just didn’t do anything with Zelda as a character, she’s a princess and no political turmoil, uniting the races, they don’t even know who she is.

      @mildhoof 3 дня назад +1

      For me, it kind of ruined my return to Phoenix Wright. Love the courtroom scenes and the general goofiness but Maya is such an annoying sidekick, whereas Emio hit the perfect tone for me. 80s Japanese nostalgia done perfectly, the amazement around the concept of a cellphone was brilliant 😂

    Fantastic lists, guys - always look forward to these every year.
    That said, I would like to recommend a game not on any of the guys' lists, released on Switch this year, that is also criminally underrated - Freedom Planet 2!
    Apparently, Freedom Planet 2 has actually been on Steam since 2022, but I didn't even know this game existed until I saw the release trailer for Nintendo Switch last April, and that's where I played it. I remembered my good times with FP1 from the Wii U days (which is also great, though FP2 is even better), was wow'ed by the trailer, and dove right in - best decision ever!
    FP2 really is a beautiful game that anyone who loves Sonic, Mega Man X, or really any 90s era platformer would love. The amount of passion, love, and care that went into it cannot be overstated, and hearing it had a 7 year development time makes all the sense in the world. All 4 playable characters are fun to play as, and there are over 30 varied bosses (40 if you want to count sparring mode) and hours of content. Every stage is fresh and creative...and it actually has a good water level...a REALLY good one. I love me some Sonic Mania, and thought Sonic Superstars was okay, but FP2 really does surpass them in pretty much every regard (OK, still hard to beat Tee Lopes Mania soundtrack, though FP2 does have some great tunes). Do yourself a favor, support the devs that absolutely deserve it, and give this one a try. For a scant $25, you ABSOLUTELY will be getting your money's worth.

    I also spent 6 weeks or so around November replaying stardew valley. Haven't played it since version 1.1 and there's SO much stuff that wasn't in the game originally now that it's been just a joy playing it again.
    Also doing a co op farm with my wife for the first time and the co op works brilliantly! With two people you can absolutely cane it through floors in the mines, even on unlucky days.
    Wonderful game

    Balatro is an odd one for me, I loved it, but found myself being infuriated with it more than having fun...even after the balance updates. Just because the game will find a way to screw you over before you can get to the 8th ante, boss blind screws you over, or in my case, it constantly gives me terrible hands. No matter how many discards I have, it would never give me what I need...same can be said about the Jokers, even when I get Blueprint and/or Brainstorm. Like, plenty of runs I'll just get chip jokers, or +Mult Jokers....and never get a single xMult Joker at all. lol
