I feel like I haven't played that many new releases this year or seen that many that I'm super interested to go seek out, so I'm interested in hearing about peoples' candidates for their own game of the year this year. Especially if it's stuff that's a little more niche and not covered as much! Feel free to tell me about Doom or Animal Crossing too if that meant something to you but I'm really interested in broadening my scope on stuff that came out this year.

Mostly all I played this year that I really liked was Monster Train (really excellent deckbuilder that I've sunk hundreds of hours into) and Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon 2 (great retro platformer that really expands and builds upon the Castlevania III pastiche into its own thing). I like One Step From Eden too (another deckbuilder based on MMBN) as well but didn't play it as much. Monster Train's easily my GOTY but I like, didn't play that many games.

I'm not sure what games I'm interested in playing. I'm really curious about Spiritfarer but I'm also really worried that it'll probably make me really sad.
