These were both votes of mine. My Exercise is a "game" that consists of pressing the spacebar rhythmically to make your character do sit-ups while things happen around you and you unlock secrets. I got it for 3 bucks and enjoyed it as an art piece.
Deathtrap Dungeon is just Eddie Marsan in a weird basement in a leather chair reading you out the contents of the Deathtrap Dungeon game book and it rules.

I don't play enough games to ever vote in these, but I enjoy watching the roll out. Avengers for PS4 was the first new game I've bought in over a year, I was really surprised by how much I liked that.... up to a point. I am def a casual gamer and given that I usually only play a few hours every other week or so, I usually play on easy levels for some beat 'em up fun. But I hit a mission about 1/4 of the way into Avengers that still has me stymied and I just cannot get past it. I was heartened a little when I googled and saw I was far from alone in hitting a wall with that particular level. I'm all for a challenge, but this just seemed an incredible spike it difficulty out of nowhere. A shame, since I was otherwise really digging the campaign more storytelling.

i threw this one 3 points, but it's one of those that i played for a few hours and then just stopped. i think forks was probably the other voter! honestly, i just started to feel like a jerk playing this game, because i could tell it was supposed to radiate warmth and i wasn't charmed or warmed or anything. i felt like a bastard! i had to stop

I voted for Spiritfarer. It was the best hug simulator of 2020 in a year with very few real hugs.

Oh, I really want to play Spiritfarer, saw it a while ago and it looks like my jam. I think it's available on platforms I have but I'd spent too much on game things around the time I noticed it so couldn't justify another splash. I will definitely get it at some point.
