Welcome back. This part of the series will be primarily focusing on genres. So far I have [Action RPG, Board Game, Tabletop RPG, Arcade Game, Third person shooter, MMO, Action, 4X (Civilization-like), 3D Platformer, Dungeon Crawler, Card Game, Indie, Text dungeon, Souls-like, Stealth, Rhythm, Horror, Metroidvania, Survival, Sandbox, Shoot/beat 'em up, City Builder, Adventure, Simulation, Puzzle, Fighting, MOBA, Turn Based Strategy, Real Time Tactics, Grand Strategy, Mobile Phone, Walking simulator, Tower Defense, Sports, Idle, Trivia, Miscellaneous, 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.
Oh good, another genre I've never played. Anyway, here's the thread.
Monkey Island 1 and 2
Broken Sword 1 and 2
Both are point and click puzzle/adventure/mystery games.
Discworld is good too in the same theme but you'll spend more time trying random combinations of things because Discworld's universe makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, whereas both of the above make a sort of sense most of the time.
I would also say Little Big Adventure as well, however it's not technically a point and click. It feels like one in its general puzzle-ey style though. LBA is particularly leftist in its story themes too in my opinion, it is ironically more relevant a story today than it was when it was written with its climate-destruction themes.
