Pong

Gameplay comes before story

The ancestor of arcade games: two paddles, one ball and a pure reflex duel in minimalist table tennis style. It could hardly be simpler, which is exactly why it became a landmark in video game history.

Basketball Classics

Gameplay comes before story

You play side-scrolling 5-on-5 basketball with a simple three-button control scheme and a retro arcade feel. Its rosters of hundreds of teams and players and its play-calling system recall the golden age of sports games.

Virtua Fighter 2

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A landmark 3D fighter from Sega AM2 that emphasizes grounded martial arts, precise timing and deep one-on-one duels instead of flashy special effects. Great for players who enjoy technical versus matches against friends or the AI.

Wrestling Empire

Vast, open spaces

You fill the ring with as many wrestlers as you can handle and let them loose in chaotic freestyle matches where anything can happen. Channeling the 64-bit era, it delivers old-school couch multiplayer for up to four controllers alongside a long career mode.

Stick Fight: The Game

Gameplay comes before story

A chaotic physics-based brawler where stick figures fight each other locally or online in short rounds with guns and fists. The fun comes from wobbly controls, wild arenas and slapstick moments with friends.

Griefhelm

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Griefhelm is a tactical dueling game with stance-based melee combat, where you outmaneuver opponents with positioning, parries and precise timing. It shines in multiplayer, where every swing counts and one mistake can end the fight.
