    Powder by Jeff lait. I think you can get it at a website called zincland or something?

    It’s an old school roguelike that absolutely slaps, though its gotten significantly harder to play since the wiki stopped being hosted

      I was just playing Powder a few weeks ago! My friend and I used to play on a work laptop during slow periods, and I got nostalgic for it.

      Had some good fun with unidentified ring of polymorph, don’t remember that from 2010.

    I never see Cultist Simulator recommended but it’s one of my favorites. It really captures the idea of studying the esoteric arts, and has a surprising amount of world building given how simple the presentation is.

    World in Conflict is one I don’t see talked about. Squad based military RTS.

    Multiplayer on that was so fun. Guessing how the enemy was moving in order to time how you call ordinance on them was my favorite part

      World in conflict is so much fun. That form of control dating back from the ground control series feel so good.

    So if I’m not counting close friends recommending games to me as “mentioned on the internet” probably Crystal Project, according to Steam. Otherwise, we’d need to go back to things that I was told about by family members way back in the day that I both like and haven’t seen mentioned online since, which is trickier. Thief The Dark Project, possibly?

    If you haven’t played Thief: The Dark Project I recommend it and its sequels. Don’t play Thief (no subtitle) though, it’s AAA garbage.
