As has become a yearly tradition, here is my list of video games I played in 2019.
A sun (โ๏ธ) means I liked it a LOT and would recommend you at least have a look at it. Some rain (๐ง) means it didn’t really do it for me or was disappointing in some way (I did not play any bad games this year). Anything without an emoji is Real Nice. A trophy (๐) signifies my personal favourite game of the year.

Some notes
- Sunless Skies is breathtaking in ambition and it almost consistently sticks the landing.
- I really loved Neo Cab until the ending which is a big wet flop of a disappointment.
- I did not get what Paratopic was trying to do but lots of people love it so if you have an interest in surreal horror stuff do check it out.
- There are a few games on this list that might become suns when I play them more, such as MH4U, Remnant, Enderal or Pokemon Sword.
