"Yeah I finished (almost) all of these games and enjoyed them for what they were but not much more than that" Tier

150. The Binding of Isaac

Very unpopular opinion, but I didn't really get into The Binding of Issac. Thematically, it's fantastic. Creepy, Biblically-horrifying shit shown through the perspective of a tiny child who attacks by crying at his enemies. Gameplay-wise, it's not my thing. Roguelike procedurally-generated dungeon crawler has to lan pretty close to the very bottom in terms of game genres I care for (with a select few exceptions we'll get to later).

149. Coffee Talk

I really expected to like this one more than I did. I mean, it's story-based, sad, full of weird monsters being treated like people in the Bojack Horseman way, and very gay. I just wish there was more interactivity here. The only "gameplay" is making drinks, which is pretty simple, and clicking to move forward text boxes. It's like a visual novel with less anime girls. I do like the story and all the characters though.

148. If On a Winter's Night, Four Travelers

This is the newest indie game I've played. I'm realizing as I write these that a lot of the games in this zone are ones where the gameplay didn't click with me much even though I enjoyed the story. IOAWN,FT is extremely dark and brutal and depressing despite being ultimately <2 hours long. It's a story of a few people on a train (implied to be going to the afterlife) telling their last memories before dying. They're all fucking sad and get progressively darker and more twisted. It's also free! Unfortunately, it suffers from just how indie it is. It's difficult to even open through Steam half the time, and has the slowest walking sped of literally any game I've ever played, which makes simple point and click tasks a pain to figure out because backtracking is painful. I swear this game would've gone up 20 spots if it just tripled the walking speed.
