Giants: Citizen Kabuto
It was a kinda janky 3D Action Adventure from around 2000. Back then it had really beautiful and colorful graphics. I remember playing it on my first "real" PC and being amazed by how it looked.
It also stands out to me for being actually funny and comitting to being a comedy game.
I loved this game! The humour was my favourite part - very dry and very British. A fun shooter with a lot of variety. Amazing soundtrack by Jeremy Soule. I found the game very difficult, though - I doubt I ever got close to finishing it. How about you?
Master Of Orion. Both the original, it's sequel and the modern remake. It's nice to play something with different pacing from other games. And the random outcomes from AI throughout the game's progression keeps things spicy from playthrough to playthrough.
I appreciate overwatch, because the sequel cured my videogame addiction (it's so much worse)
Pretty much any of the Zachtronics games. Shenzen I/O, ExaPunks, Opus Magnum, and Last Call BBS are all fun "puzzle" games for programmers and people with programmer brains.
SCRAPS Modular Vehicle Combat. It's so much fun building epic guncars and battling with your friends LAN or over the internet. So sad to see the development abandoned though.
