Finished Pilot Quest just in time to start Saros.

That’s one of fifty games down 🤣

I did Thanksgiving with my extended family yesterday. Convinced my nephew to get UFO 50. My brother texted me after I left that my nephew specifically loves Hot Foot and Camouflage.

It feels so good to share the good news of Jesus Christ.

this looks interesting and like its something that was made for me in mind as its market... but honestly, this is a bold strategy to make a game of minigame compilation like this because... the title makes it so i am reminded of the old nintendo-era pirate carts (50 in one, 500 in one, 5000 in one) that were bad ROMhacks of the smallest possible size to cram into the cart.. I never came across one in person but I am doubtful that at any point in history that anyone would want those things...

Lol it seems these pirate cart things are still being made direct from china... and are lmost the same idea it was 40 years ago. !

Night Manor is my new favorite horror game

enter image description here

It succeeds where so many modern horror games fail. It's slow pace and unarmed protagonist adds to the dread. It's environmental story telling is compelling while not obtuse. The sound design takes advantage of the setting and the hardware limitations. It has genuine scares!

I just can't believe how good UFO 50 …

I just can't believe how good UFO 50 is. Everytime I think I have played the last great UFO game, I find another that shines in a whole new way.

I bought this but I'm scared to actually get into it because I just know I'll end up spending way more time than anyone should playing through all 50 games

I was looking forward to this since the concept of a collection of new retro-style games from the history of a fictional studio sounded cool, but after trying around 20 of the games, I haven't really had much fun with them. The way it's all presented is nice, and it's an ambitious thing that is more fleshed-out than you'd expect …

I was looking forward to this since the concept of a collection of new retro-style games from the history of a fictional studio sounded cool, but after trying around 20 of the games, I haven't really had much fun with them. The way it's all presented is nice, and it's an ambitious thing that is more fleshed-out than you'd expect with some stuff I found decent, but overall I think it's just not for me. If you are a lot more into 80s games than I am and want a bunch of new stuff to try out at once, this is probably a no-brainer as it seems to give great value for the money.

Hades 2 didn't get me playing my PC but maybe this will. Unless they announce this for Switch before I beat Zelda, I'll probably be mouse and keyboarding it like the rapscallion I am in about a month.

Did anyone buy this? It looks really neat! Reviewers are saying it's 50 complete retro games in one, rather than just 50 half-baked minigames! Instantly added to my wishlist!

A reviewer on Steam has nearly 1300 hours played, and he had incredibly high praise to give. Seems like a great amount of content for such a low price.
