Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

Mine would be tunic , It feels like top down old school Zelda but puzzles that will blow your mind when you get the context. If you haven't played tunic before don't watch any review just buy the game and play it.

This is a 10/10 game where I wish to forget about it to play this again.

Tunic was such a great game. Good difficulty and tons of exploration. Some of the shortcuts seem to be invisible until you come out the other direction then it is obvious.

Awesome game, but hardly one nobody talks about. It was huge for a year and nearly every game critic or reviewer would have a piece about it!

The dev really nailed the vibe of playing a game in a foreign language that you don't really understand, and the latter puzzles are so brilliant.

The only other game that gave me such a vibe was Fez
