Cozy/Indie
People who say this is 'relaxing' clearly play differently than me, but it's still an amazing game.
Synopsis:
"You’ve inherited your grandfather’s old farm plot in Stardew Valley. Armed with hand-me-down tools and a few coins, you set out to begin y...
Stardew Valley
Coziest of games
New Horizons for the Nintendo Switch™ system – Official Site
This silly little cat keeps me company during all the boring computer activity. Every key stroke and click of the mouse makes the little cat bongo away on your toolbar. Not really a game per se, but a little companion 🖤
Bongo Cat on Steam
I regret to inform you that this is NOT cozy, but it is indie!
The synopsis: "When Isaac’s mother starts hearing the voice of God demanding a sacrifice be made to prove her faith, Isaac escapes into the basement facing droves of deranged enemies, lo...

Ohmygod this little game tugs at the heartstrings 😭

Cozy Grove on Steam
This game is so cute, and sad, and interesting! There's so much complexity, and you navigate it all as a little orange cat.
"Lost, alone and separated from family, a stray cat must untangle an ancient mystery to escape a long-forgotten cybercity and...
Stray on Steam
"We Happy Few is an action/adventure game set in a drug-fuelled, retrofuturistic city in an alternative 1960s England. Hide, fight and conform your way out of this delusional, Joy-obsessed world."
This game is wild, but a really cool idea! I love in...
We Happy Few on Steam
"Discover the secrets of the Calamity, a surreal catastrophe that shattered the world to pieces."
Bastion has one of my favorite video game soundtracks, with songs I incorporate into my regular listening!
Bastion on Steam
One of the tags on this game just says 'difficult', and I mean yeah. That sums it up. It's infuriating, and addicting. The music is a vibe, and the visuals are trippy. Good luck!
Super Hexagon
Open World RPG/ Action-Adventure
This. This game right here. The story, the graphics, everything about it I love.
Synopsis:
"Lost in transit while on a colonist ship bound for the furthest edge of the galaxy, you awake decades later only to find yourself in the midst of a deep consp...
The Outer Worlds on Steam
Replayed so many times, made so many decisions 😂
Baldur's Gate 3
I think this game is worth at least one playthrough. I liked the story a lot.
Synopsis:
"It is the year 2330. Humanity has left Earth behind and spread among the stars, colonizing a small pocket of the galaxy known as the Settled Systems. However, th...
Starfield | Official Website - Bethesda.net
This is my absolute, number one, favorite game of all time. My favorite of the Fallout franchise for sure! Yes, it's janky. It's old, and Bethesda, so you know that going in.
Synopsis:
"After surviving a bullet to the head, Courier Six traverses the...
Fallout: New Vegas
Revenge solves everything. This is one of the first games I ever played, and the series Honda a special place in my heart. This is the first installment.
Synopsis:
"After being framed for the murder of the Empress he swore to protect, a once truste...
Dishonored on Steam
I was so excited for this sequel, and it did not disappoint!
Synopsis:
"Fifteen years after the events of the first game, Emily Kaldwin is dethroned by an otherworldly conspirator forcing herself, or her father, Corvo (not canon) to go on a journey t...
Dishonored 2 on Steam
Going from New Vegas to four definitely took some getting used to, as the ui was fairly different. Still, a very good game!
Synopsis: "You are the sole survivor of Vault 111, emerging into a world reduced to ash by nuclear war. Every moment is a bat...
Fallout 4 - Anniversary Edition on Steam
This is the only witcher game I've played, but oh man was it top of my list for a while! This is how I was introduced to Geralt, I hadn't read the books and the show wasn't even being made yet.
Synopsis: "You are Geralt of Rivia, mercenary monster s...
Play the acclaimed open-world RPG: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Now, as someone who played Fallout first, this took me a long time to get into. Once I did though, I understand why this is a favorite for so many people.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition
At first I thought this game was fairly short, and to be fair, the main story kind of is. But with so many side quests and pretty good DLC's, I definitely enjoyed this one!
Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition
Honestly, I didn't hate this game as much as everyone seemed to 😅
Is it my favorite fallout title? No, of course not. But I do have fun, and it's interesting interacting with other Fallout players!
Synopsis: "Bethesda Game Studios welcome you to Fa...
Fallout 76 on Steam
Gotta build a factory. This game is fascinating, and surprisingly beautiful! Definitely more fun as a co-op with a friend!
Synopsis: "Satisfactory is a first-person open-world factory building game with a dash of exploration and combat. Play alone o...
Satisfactory Game: Home
Pretty much a hack and slash, but really good!
"Ryse: Son of Rome” tells the story of Marius Titus, a young Roman soldier who witnesses the murder of his family at the hands of barbarian bandits, then travels with the Roman army to Britannia to seek...
Ryse: Son of Rome on Steam
FPS
This is the first call of duty that I played, specifically Zombies.
Call of Duty: World at War
This one kinda blurs the genre-lines for me, but the developers call it a shooter so that's where I'll put it.
Synopsis: "BioShock is a shooter unlike any you've ever played, loaded with weapons and tactics never seen. You'll have a complete arsenal...
BioShock™ Remastered on Steam
A sequel I like just as much as the first game, you're back in Rapture as a Big Daddy!
Synopsis: "In BioShock 2, you step into the boots of the most iconic denizen of Rapture, the Big Daddy, as you explore through the decrepit and beautiful fallen c...

Mario Kart™ 8 Deluxe for Nintendo Switch™ – Official Site
I'm a bit young for true MK nostalgia, but I grew up loving those terrible movies, and I really like the modern iterations of the games!
Mortal Kombat 11
VR/Active
It took me a while to get good at this rhythm game, but man once I was? It was my favorite for a long time! All you gotta do is slice the blocks to the beat, which is a task that gets harder and harder 😅
Beat Saber - VR rhythm game
This VR game focused heavily on realistic movements. My best times playing this game were spent with my uncle and I being complete doofuses together 😂
Synopsis: "Pavlov is a multiplayer shooter in VR with heavy focus on community. Set in both modern...

Puzzle
Ah, Portal. The puzzles get harder as the story gets crazier, and I'll leave the details for you to find out, if you've somehow never played!
Portal on Steam
When you thought there was no way Valve could do it again, they did it again 😂
Just as entertaining and difficult as the first game, and this one has a solo and multiplayer campaign!
