#95. P1 Select

Michael Brough makes these lovely minimal little grid-like strategy games -- think chess -- and my favourite of them is P1 Select, a mobile game that sorta plays like the most minimal strategy RPG you can find. It's a fun little high score run type of game where every run lasts like 3 minutes and your high score is averaged across your last 16 runs. I'm apparently 6th in the world. Love this stupid thing.

#94. Dragon Warrior 3

A classic! The best of the NES games and the blueprint by which NES RPGs are defined. I've played this so many times and the DQ series is one big nostalgia trip so I don't come back to it much these days, but it's a damn fun game.

#93. Half-Minute Hero: The Second Coming

The original is certainly more charming but this game expands on the only good game mode -- Hero 30 -- and somehow turns it into this 20 hour mega RPG with a branching story and tons of world building. It's crazy, it's stupid, it's overkill and it works.

#92. Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow

There's a long list of metroidvanias that are right around this spot but miss the list. This one stays on because it's a classic DS game in the heyday when the DS was brand new, and a game that would be better if it ever got ported to another platform and removed all of the touch screen nonsense.

#91. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

It's just a good damn game all the way throughout. It's never great in my eyes, but super playable any time and is the blueprint for other, better games. Yeah, I never got too enthralled with this one like others did but it's definitely a stellar game, especially for the time.
