So far I have [RTS, Turn based RPG, Action RPG, Board Game, Arcade Game, third person shooter, MMO, Action, 4X (Civilization-like), 3D Platformer, Roguelike, Dungeon Crawler, Card Game, Point and click, Indie, Text dungeon, Stealth, Rhythm, Horror, Metroidvania, Survival, Sandbox, City Builder, Adventure, Simulation, Puzzle, Bullet Hell, Fighting, MOBA, Real Time Tactics, Visual Novel, Racing, Tower Defense, Sports, Idle, Trivia, and Casual] as available genres. Let me know if I missed something, and I will try to get it added.
This is eventually all going to get compiled into one megathread for people who want gaming recommendations from Chapos specifically. Other consoles and genres will come in sporadic subsequent threads. Please contribute to previous threads if you missed them. This is meant to be an exhaustive list.
Expanding on your choice(s) is definitely a plus. Not everyone knows about or has played non-mainstream titles.
In the puzzle-platform genre, I really liked the Shift and Phantom Mansion series
In the Shift games, the character navigates a roughly square level, all in black and white. Pressing the shift key makes the board turn around and the character change color and pass through the floor. Obstacles become empty space and empty space becomes obstacles.
Phantom Mansion is a series of games with puzzle levels involving gathering items, pushing boxes around, pressing buttons, and getting to the exit. Each entry in the series has its own set of gimmicks unique to that game, and they all come back in the final entry, The Black Sanctum.
Treasure Seas Incorporated is also fun, if you can get around the whole "white people raiding the Caribbean for treasures" thing
Get Flashpoint if you want to play flash games now that Adobe Flash got shitcanned
