Let's be real, the first banger of the year (until Elden Ring) is Vampire Survivors, but we've also got: the Eldritch Papers Please-ian plant identification simulator Strange Horticulture, Pokemon proof-of-concept Arceus, and the lightly satisfying, heavily cringey brawler Sifu.
Let's be real, the first banger of the year (until Elden Ring) is/was Vampire Survivors, despite being a 3-dollar dodge-em-up that feels like a bastard child that could've come straight out of the Facebook ad-driven mobile shovelware camp. And yet, here we are in BAD END 112, praising it as one of the best games of the episode. Also included: the Eldritch Papers Please-ian plant identification simulator Strange Horticulture, and the lightly satisfying, heavily cringey brawler Sifu.
