A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Mine is the Army Men series. Objectively mediocre games at best but the concept of toy soldiers fighting over our yards and rooms has always been cool to me

I have so many fond memories of the game, but I keep forgetting the name. Thank you for the reminder, maybe this time I'll remember to try and emulate it.

Glad I could help jog your memory!

If you're looking for a modern (only in the sense that it released in the past decade) game heavily inspired by Azure Dreams, check out Dungeon Dreams on Steam. It's an RPG Maker love letter to Azure Dreams.

Heyy, very cool! Thanks for the recommendation! I gotta keep this one in mind, after I get through Fear&Hunger. It's pretty brutal, but god I love the pixel art.
