I voted for Outer Worlds and Outer Wilds. Outer Worlds is the first Fallout game I've liked, basically.

grindstone is fun enough that when i got to level 97 and my game glitched and erased, i just started over and am still playing a few levels before bed every night

If I hadn’t failed to vote I would have thrown a ton of points at “Outer Worlds” an absolute joy to play, legitimately very very funny, visually stunning, and (I’m sure people complained about this) not excessively long.

hey this game is great. off-beat sci-fi premise - roguelike w/ "permadeath" where subsequent convicts continue the scavenging for critical parts, ammo, food, fuel, etc fun AND funny i just wish bigger?

steam says i played 15 hours that sounds about right, probably a little shorter i did some of the optional post-game quests but it really is v fun and worth a play

Antimatter dimensions is an idle game, yes. Not a lot of clicking though. The mobile version released last year made a lot of changes, including making the "idle game" (having the app closed) stronger.

four left today! our last result today will have over 30 points, meaning everything tomorrow will have had to have had at least two voters
i cannot wrap my head around the fact that i wrote "will have had to have had". i know it can't be correct but i can't figure out why

Cursed Kingdom was my #2. Around my 6th favorite Metroidvania -- below Hollow Knight but above most Castlevanias. The big downside is that there's no post-game content -- once it's done, it's done.

Wargroove! IIRC Advanced Wars was less hard -- for me, I haven't even gotten very far in the Wargroove single-player campaign, but the characters are really fun.

Dicey dungeons is a great game - roguelike elements deck building with so many unique mechanics and variations on those mechanics it’s sorta dizzying how much game there is here despite what first appears to be v basic structure and design

Played it more than any other game last year really still among humanity’s most wonderful innovations of perfect design and complexity emerging out of simple principles every game packed with emergent themes and ideas and stories told entirely out of a grid board and some basic rules
