Shadow Generations is the quintessential modern tragedy. Ruminate alongside Shadow as he reflects on his inner demons coming back to haunt him despite vows to leave the past in the past and never turn back. Live and learn from the pain of inevitable goodbyes, while grappling with trying to grieve the dear friends who are standing right in front of you. Behold Shadow's resolve as he navigates the tone-deaf attempts of his emotionally distant father to manipulatively bond with him over an experience he cannot recognize that his son has far outgrown. This game is the first in years to understand that Shadow the Hedgehog is more than just the brooding clone of Sonic, he is a mirror into our own fractured psyches.

The broom closet ending is my favorite!

10/10

A delightful little space shooter that raises the question: How many shotguns can I fit onto my spaceship? Unlocking a sizeable budget won't take too long, however the extensive ship editor is bound to keep you and your friends entertained for a while.

9/10

Yelled at a dragon until it couldn't fly anymore. Convinced a noble warrior who really hates the theives' guild to help me on thieves' guild quests. Snuck into the palace, cast rage on the Jarl, and watched him fight his own guards.

And I thought The Sims was the pinnacle of cruelity.

8/10, 10/10 with mods

Fascinating in-depth economy simulator with a neat FPS minigame. Trade hats for valuable keys, earbuds, severed rabbit heads, and ultra-rare hats that have been lit on fire. Spend well too many hours of your life trying to earn 15 cents on a trade when you could have been working at minimum wage. A true classic that has stood the test of time.

10/10

The game is very fun... for about 5 minutes. There just isn't really that much to do. The one offical server never has anybody playing, and there are no bots, so there is no reason to play the game right now... shame that such a great concept went to waste :(
