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 :(

I humbly submit for your approval Yuppie Psycho, a fantastic Steam horror adventure about a kid's first day in a truly nightmarish company. It's got a unique style, and genuinely unnerved me in places. Really creative work, and it deserves so much more attention.

There used to be a game I found when shareware was still a thing. It was called Harry the Handsome Executive. You basically scoot around on a chair in an office throwing pencils and avoiding traps, it was cute

Psi-Ops: The Mindgate Conspiracy on PS2. It was an innovative third person shooter game where the player got telekinesis powers.

I don't remember if the story is actually any good, but the gameplay was really cool.

@LeylaaLovee Opoona on Wii, even though it has an official ENG translation

Stronghold Crusader HD. It's not even like the other games in the series but I keep coming back to this one to play. I've played tons of RTS games, but nothing scratches the itch like it does.

Cruelty Squad is that game for me, though it's recently gotten a huge surge in popularity after a big Youtuber released a vid on it last week that already has 3.7 million views. I highly recommend it to anyone who's not photosensitive.

I vaguely remember a DS version of one of the assassin's creed games, it was a 2d platformer. Used to take it with me everywhere. I can't quite remember the name though?

Cossacks 3 or any of the older ones too. Pretty satisfying building up your economy and managing huge battles.
