  • Dead Cells
  • Overcooked

Well, there you have it. Nindies suck.

I own seven of them, and while I only enjoyed six, two of them are two of my absolute favorite games ever now.

I wonder how many times these kinds of lists propels MORE sales for these titles.  I've adored my time with Stardew Valley, Dead Cells, and Overcooked 1, but this list has reminded me that I haven't gotten around to Undertale or Celeste yet.
