So my work has this scheme that whenever people get special recognitions they receive money to spend on a rewards website. Mostly stuff like Starbucks vouchers and cinema tickets, and the only thing I’m ever bothered about are the Xbox vouchers. Upshot is I got £25 free Xbox money, and you guys are gonna help me spend it. I’m open to most things (caveats below), but tell me why your choice is good rather than just trotting out 50 games I’ve never heard of before.
NOTE: I’m happy to spend more money, depending on the game(s).

• 8-bit side-scrollers and other ‘retro-style’ games. Most of the time they somehow feel both uninspired and overzealous with colour and weirdness. I would much rather just play a remastered old game thanks. Undertale was a refreshing exception to this.
• Multiplayer games. My internet is bad and I am a crap shot at the best of times. I also don’t have the time to grind to get decent against tee-blam!-, nor the money to spend on pointless microtrsnsactions.
• Souls-like games. I get that you think they’re amazing, but I don’t have the time to get not terrible at fighting enemies like that. Sorry not sorry.
• Sports games. Ew.
UPDATE:
So I ended up buying OKAMI HD, so thanks for the shout Frostyfox164, along with Ender Lillies, so thanks for that one Aifos! I also bought This Is The Police and MGS 5 cus they look pretty dope and they’re on sale atm.
I added a lot of the other games you guys suggested to my wish list cus they look awesome, so thanks a lot peeps.

CrossCode is the first thing that comes to mind. Don’t know if you’d consider it “retro style” or not. It’s a Zelda-like (puzzley dungeons & whatnot), where you’re basically the Avatar (control over the four elements & stuff). Story starts out stupid, but gets surprisingly good later on, combat is incredibly fun, and there’s just enough grinding to where it rarely feels like a chore, but there if you want to power up. The flow of combat is also completely up to you, whether you want to fight every enemy you see, or only every now & then to get on with the story. I apparently lost my fun clip showcasing some of your moves, but I can nab you a clip of a boss fight if you’d like. Only problem is that it’s the final boss of the DLC, so it’s a little spoilery, and way more intense than the normal boss fights. :p
