Landstalker

91 %

1992 PC free

  • Lots of humour
  • Fantasy setting
  • Lots to discover

An isometric action adventure starring treasure hunter Nigel and his fairy companion Friday, mixing sword combat, tricky platforming puzzles and witty dialogue on a treasure-filled island.

Shantae: Risky's Revenge

Lots of humour

A charming 2D Metroidvania where half-genie Shantae whips her hair and uses dance transformations to explore deserts, caves and forests. Smooth, expressive sprite animation and cheeky humor define the adventure.

Rogue Legacy

Strong character progression

A tough 2D platformer where every death passes the sword to an heir with random, often silly traits like colorblindness or gigantism, who then storms the shifting castle again. Gold you collect upgrades the family manor for good, so each generation gets a little stronger.

The Messenger

Lots of humour

A ninja platformer that begins as an 8-bit romp and, through time travel, opens up into a 16-bit Metroidvania full of deadpan humor. Precise sword fighting and the satisfying cloudstep mid-air jump make movement a joy.

Divinity II: Ego Draconis

Strong character progression

A witty Larian action RPG where you play a Dragon Knight who fights on foot and can also transform into a dragon for aerial combat. Mind reading, quirky quests and plenty of hidden secrets make its take on Rivellon stand out.

Rabi-Ribi

Lots to discover

A fast-paced anime Metroidvania starring a bunny girl who mixes hammer combos, magic and bullet-hell boss fights. The colorful island is packed with secrets and upgrades to find.

Nobody Saves the World

Strong character progression

A witty top-down action RPG from Drinkbox where a blank-slate Nobody transforms into over a dozen absurd forms, from rat to dragon, and mixes their abilities into custom builds. Dungeons, form-unlocking quests and co-op create a highly addictive progression loop.

Styx: Master of Shadows

Fantasy setting

As a sarcastic goblin assassin you sneak, climb and kill your way through a huge tower filled with humans and elves. Vertical levels, abilities like invisibility and cloning, and the freedom to choose stealth or lethal takedowns define the experience.
