This came out not too long ago, made by the Shadows of Adam devs. JRPG closer to around the FF4 era. It's not anything crazy but I appreciate they didn't try to fuck everything up with overly-complicated pointless systems like Sea of Stars and Chained Echoes.

Malevolence: The Sword of Ahkranox
I played a pirated version of it a bit and it was kinda interesting and fun for a few hours. It’s a dungeon crawler with grid-based movement and a first person perspective as you might expect. I think it’s all randomly generated but I can’t really remember now. It’s all I could really think of off the top of my head to contribute.
>>
>>720387005

>>720387637

>>
>>720387904
Played it last year, got through the whole thing in maybe 9 hours? It's good if you're craving that SNES-style JRPG feel without the 40-hour time commitment. The planets aren't massive, think more like "three chunky towns and a dungeon or two each" than some open galaxy exploration. It’s all fairly linear. Good music though, and the battle system is actually solid. Definitely worth grabbing on a sale.

Fun little roguelike musou. The gimmick is in creating your special attacks from the ground up by combining weapon types, elements, and a couple dozen attack modifiers to get different movesets. You can either experiment and see what combinations you get, or defeat "historical" samurai in game to later play as them and see how their skills are constructed. There's like 129 samurai, constant progression, etc.

It's good, and you can get comically strong and slaughter soldiers by the thousands like in any good musou.
>>
>>720393481
Haven't played this one, but I can recommend their other game, Metal Bringer. A roguelite mecha musou, where you combine parts, weapons, and upgrades, and can obtain new ones permanently through foes you defeat.
It also has a steep difficulty curve that can get quite punishing.

Shigatari may not be a hidden gem, but I rarely see people talk about it anymore.
It's turn-based Samurai FTL. Probably my favorite in that tiny genre. Kind of a playable shitpost also.
That said, it's got too little content. You see repeated events not just between runs, but within runs.
On the other hand, it's 3 bucks. On the other other hand, it's always 3 bucks because it never goes on sale.

Its a pity its not a "true" remaster because if you like the Dragon's Lair / Space Ace style of game, these deserved it properly. I remember the SegaCD version's devs will send you a t-shirt and framed certificate if you beat the game and recorded it, sending it to the publisher.

If the graphics are really good but there's no gameplay, get the fuck out. Period. No more VNs, no more walking simulators... Even the walking simulator is literal, where moving limbs is the gimmick. Stop that shit, those are not games, and they're not gems. It could be a completely FREE game, and i would still say they're clumps of shit and deserve to be left on the ground where they lay.

If the graphics are MS Paint tier but the gameplay is obviously high-effort in the genre, like if it's a tactical turn based style with a lot of statistical and unit interactions, then it's passable if the price is reasonably low to attract people despite cheap artwork.

If it really looks unique and the number of similar looking or feeling games is minimal (and it manages to not be an obvious "__game engine name here__" style game) and every single component of the game is tuned to be the utmost peak of quality... but somehow it has 10 reviews in a year? then it's a genuine hidden gem that could be priced at $20 or more and be worthwhile to someone, if the game is in their favored genre(s) all that needs to be done is fucking advertise it and tell people it exists.

>Creepy VN with jump scares that work (as I am not a jumpscare enjoyer) but you can turn them off if you're a complete pussy. Horror VNs are far and few between and this one has a great cast, a great story, and a wonderful juxtaposition between comfy and frightening that works.
They hardly go on sale and 50 dollars for 20 hour games is a hard ask despite them being excellent, so sail the seas if you want and I hope at least one VN lover enjoys it

I know, I know. I'm not going to try and tell you this one's any different either, because I usually avoid this genre as a whole so I don't even know how different or similar it actually is. But the devs really put a lot of thought into the sound track. Playing through an activating the prerequisites grants you a battle-length buff and their theme. I bought the JP collector's edition specifically for the physical CD.

Bought it, played it, refunded after an hour.
And yes, this is epicnamebros game and OP is aware of that.

I was actually vibing with the tactical gameplay and the unique effects on all the equipment, but the game has the most insecure millennial writing I've ever seen. almost every single line of dialogue and item flavour text is painful to read. he literally put "let me axe you a question" on an axe weapon. like every single line of text in this game feels like this insecure dude who constantly tries to make jokes, then looks around to see if anyone laughed, and then back-pedals on the joke while at the same time hoping people will give attention to the joke now since he's backpedaling. also the dialogue is full of cringe anachronisms and just feels like the hello there fellow kids meme but on a college campus instead of high school.

I didn't put much time into it but enjoyed it well enough. On my second or third run I got the sticky legs and just ran up the outside of the final gauntlet instead of battling, so I was able to beat the final boss through a combination of luck and not having lost a bunch of HP getting there.

btw. before refunding his game I copied the install folder because it just launches without even calling to steam so I was planning to continue playing it and maybe rebuy if I ended up liking it, but the dialogue was so atrocious that I just couldn't anymore after stage 6 or so.

I was under the impression his wife left him for another American, although my knowledge of the entire affair was some greentext I read several years ago that also wrote that she went on birth control when he was trying for another kid.

I liked the system where you actively fight your opponent with health bars, attacks, skills and everything. And you have to react to their actions and not just score points or some shit like in Huniepop. For example enemy can create blocks that damage you every turn until you drop it to the bottom and it's essential to play around that while still managing your attacks/heals/utility.
It's mostly just the same mindless shit, but the girl's clothes gets torn up when you damage her, so there's that, the porn is okay too.

Well, the Dark Disciples link has a pretty good description and screenshots, so that should be enough for you to decide. It's a single character top-down turn based Ultima-like heavy on exploration & puzzles with multiple approaches to quest solving.

I agree that the SCFWorks pages are pretty barebones. Last Scenario is a well executed very traditional old-school JRPG. Exit Fate is a suikoden-like with a huge cast of characters.

World's End is a grimdark Final Fantasy Tactics where you control a gang of lowlives.

This one had less than 20 reviews for literal years before an e-celeb made a video on it. It's pretty fucking great while also being an absolute mess of a game, full of poorly implemented mechanics that aren't properly explained. It's full of Marvel-tier cringy dialogue and at the same time it feels completely genuine. If you want the kind of experience where you have no idea where the script is leading you to, give it a try.

Really enjoyed this one. Very rough with a lot of potential, but the base game in its current state is pretty alright. Campaign missions are a bit dull, but bumping up the difficulty does help with making the game more exciting to play. The DLC is a massive improvement overall to the base game. It's less of a DLC and more of an expansion since it adds a hefty amount of new content to every part of the base game, and all of the new content is fairly good (new weapons/armor tier, better enemy variety, way better mission variety).

Base game is $16 which might be a bit steep for an indie game. Worse off is the expansion which is an additional $10, yet it massively improves upon the base game. I bought the DLC since I enjoyed the base game a lot, and the DLC really does bring a lot more to the table in terms of overall quality and fun to be had. It could also be my personal bias since it really scratches that itch for a mecha horde shooter.

Yeah I know exactly what you mean, anon. Not everything needs to be a depression simulator or some avant-garde pixel vomit trying to reinvent platforming through tax evasion metaphors. Sometimes you just want a tight, colorful double-jump-and-slash kind of deal that doesn’t spend half its runtime guilt-tripping you for killing enemies.

Try Lunark, it's a cinematic platformer that's basically Flashback meets Prince of Persia. Or Huntdown if you're after a run-and-gun-solid pixel art, punchy gameplay, not trying to emotionally scar you with silent protagonist syndrome or a 5-minute cutscene about daddy issues. Just crisp, focused FUN.

Turn-based blobber like Might and Magic but with point and click exploration and interaction. Exploration is more condensed because you're just moving from one screen to another, but there's a lot more to interact with. There's lots of unique items, XP and permanent stat bonuses to find by interacting with objects and NPCs.

I would say it requires a decent jrpg background in terms of vocabulary, since after each level you have to buy spells. Each spell does something different so it would be better if you understand what you're doing. Some spells really do funky stuff, like invert your movement each time you use the spell to get more damage, poison the enemy, etc.

>>720423538
I wanted to play as a caster but I finally went for healer because the ai kind of suck at healing. Being the healer allow you to keep exploring longer. Just stock up on mana pills and you will be able to grind dungeons.
I would also avoid hiring too many people at the start of the game so you can get more money from splitting rewards. I went with healer (me) tank (waifu amazon) and a caster with multi target spell.
Don't take too many quest at once too because travelling takes so much time you will fail some of them. Try to get quests that bring you back to the town next to each other.
So basically : do non-fight quests > buy mana pills > grind dungeons. That's what I did.

>is there any kind of super challenge? Something that really needs you to strategize over it.
The post-game super bosses are generally pretty challenging, the hardest of which introduces its own mechanics wholly unique to its fight.
As for the main game, playing on anything besides Hardcore+Tactical is too easy, but Tactical isn't even available until after you beat the game at least once.
Scrubs will usually find themselves walled at things they can't out-grind since level really isn't that important except to unlock character skills, meaning that all kinds of low-level challenges are possible as long as you're good enough at the game.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2943280/Dustland_Delivery/

Dustland Delivery. Basically a game about being a trucker in a post apocalyptic wasteland, moving supplies and trade goods between settlements and outposts of various size. If you ever played flash games like Caravaner, it's a lot like that except much more fleshed out. And there's more to do than just driving around, you can also be a mercenary or develop your own settlement, but it's pretty much open world. There are a few different worlds to choose from with different attributes and overall difficulty. And it's only $8.

Also you can have sex and have a cyborg waifu and some friends travel in your truck with you, but of course you'll need more supplies to travel the more people you have. The truck is also customizable and upgradeable, some are better for combat, basically tanks shaped like trucks, while others are more cozy for living in and long hauls, while some are Chinese style super uncomfortable and shitty but good at transporting large quantities of goods, etc.

There's not really much of an overarching storyline, but sometimes you'll come across stories here and there that you can follow if you want, and potentially fuck up and make things worse depending on your decisions and skill. It's possible to be an evil greedy bastard, or a wasteland trucker saint, or whatever.

This game came out almost 15 years ago so a lot of zoomers on here have probably never heard of it, but it's definitely worth checking out! Skyrim is a massive open world RPG where you play as a completely customizable character. You find yourself in the midst of a brutal civil war between the mighty Empire and the stalwart Stormcloaks, and peace seems unlikely. You can choose to develop your magical abilities and study in the College of Winterhold, or maybe you prefer the more straightforward option of swords and hammers, then the Companions are for you! Or maybe you're more interested in money and stealth, well, then there are options for you as well.

Play and explore in a living, breathing world where every action has consequences, and there are secrets hiding just under the surface. Dive in!

Killer Frequency is a game by Team 17 (the devs who made Worms) which is weird because after they made Worms I think all the talent left the company and they've done nothing but shitty shovelware for over a decade EXCEPT for Killer Frequency which is a surprisingly well made game.

You take the role of Forest Nash, a late night radio host in a tiny town of 1000 people. Through somewhat contrived plot progression, you become the emergency 9-11 operator for the night and there is a serial killer who may or may not be the ghost of a serial killer from 30 years ago stalking the town. Victims call in and you have to save them. It's a fun throwback to 80s slasher movies, the voice acting is heartfelt and well done and the 'puzzles' are satisfying and make you feel smart.

i believe it was originally supposed to be a mobile game since it's structured into very short battle levels, ENB talked about it a lot on his streams where he had envisioned it as a break from reality for a few minutes that someone could pick up, play a level or two, level up and then put it down till they had another short break to fill some time with
development then turned to being a PC title and it's from a single digit group of developers who didn't really have any major funding and were working on it as time would allow them to
ENB himself is basically a fulltime dad raising his daughter
he streams on twitch on and off but i believe he must have some sorta other income because he's not a full time streamer as far as i'm aware

I'm playing Quasimorph right now but I'm not sure how to describe it well. A hardcore turn based mission based game, I guess.

In Quasimorph you play as a futuristic mercenary company in the far future of our solar system where AnarchoCapitalism is the name of the game. Various corporations control every planet and moon and there are constant bloody conflicts between them for territory and technology. You can play favorites, helping certain companies grow faster, maybe because you like their ideology more or just because you prefer the weapons and other gear they develop over other companies. It's usually best to pick at least 1-3 favorite companies, because growing at the same time is this strange alien/demon force that's also competing with the humans, both in violence and capitalism. They can show up whenever you do mission around certain planets, and different demon gods rule each planet so fighting them is always different. They're attracted by violence, dismemberment, and blood, and also things like cannibalism or torture.

I believe there are 3 or maybe 4 different story lines to follow. You can side with the Civil Resistance or AnCom, who are both trying to overthrow the AnCap status quo. Or you can go with SBN, which is basically the major media company of the AnCap system and controls the networks and information, mostly. Or you can side with the weird extradimensional demon things. The game is early access but it's in active development and gets big updates at least once a month, usually more. A big one just came out making the game 0.95. But I've been playing it for a while now and it's never felt incomplete, they just keep adding new companies and content. The base game itself is already complete.

Bounced off it because of it's non-atomic turn system (i.e. you or enemies can have more turns per turn), but otherwise i really enjoy roguelikes.

>>720474105
It's based on the movement you choose. Almost everything gets 1 to 3 actions per turn, and so do you. You get 1 action if you're sneaking, 2 if you're walking, and 3 if you're sprinting. sneaking lets you sneak obviously, but also detect enemies that you can't see by listening. Sprinting is obviously faster, but it makes more noise, hurts your accuracy, and also some actions are unavailable while sprinting. However, some of the demons have 4 speed and they're trouble

I guess it's kinda roguelike but it's more like the missions themselves are roguelike, the game around them isn't at all.

>>720474364
Yeah, i know, but the main thing i dislike is that turns are not synchronous - you act, then enemy acts, that's what i remember of the demo. I dislike it because it kind of limits the potential for chaotic shit that can happen. Like, in Cogmind you and enemies act at the same time, "turn" is just a formal way of saying that an action takes 100 time units, movement is speed based which both allows you to traverse multiple times per turn and on the other end of the spectrum - some actions might take multiple turns.

Oh I see what you mean. Yeah that would be pretty cool. I think it still works pretty well, and I like the little touches like how shooting guns leaves the empty casings on the floor, so if you hold up for a while somewhere then there's just shit everywhere. For a 2D game with relatively simple graphics, it still manages to look really good and have a lot of reactivity. Even the walls can be destroyed.

I do NOT recommend BUYING this but I highly recommend everyone ITT to play it. The performance is kinda awful so whether or not it even runs properly on your machine is up to the gods, but it's really, really neat and I don't think I've ever seen anyone talk about this game. It was developed by some no name French studio and I don't know if they ever even developed anything other than this one.

Speaking of games that's probably not going to run on modern machines

I obsessed over this game, it was the only zombie sim I knew of and could run until the contemporary games started coming out, to me this IS the grandfather of zombie games as we know it, predates Zomboid and Dayz by years
if you have an old af gfx card or intel HD integrated graphics, try it out, might work for you, all I know is that it uses some really old fucked up version of PhysX that's really temperamental so it won't run anything past the 10xx series

I'm just gonna shill my favourite shmup. It has well implemented dynamic rank - when you play well & try to push for higher scores, the game fights back and becomes super hectic. Nice FM synth soundtrack, and some of the later ships play really differently. I'm always a fan of gimmick ships in shmups.

Wait a fucking minute, Tim Burton's Alice is basically just American McGee's Alice but less grimdark.
