This volume contains 15 games, numbered 16–30, in the four-part series first published in 2025. The full archive preserves 50 historical entries, with the buying recommendation for entry 14 explicitly withdrawn in Part 1; 49 entries retain recommendations. This volume does not repeat Part 1’s entries. Several selections are well-known classics; the point is to find something outside your usual habits, not to claim they are commercially obscure.
The recommendations below are editorial comparisons based on the Spanish selection and linked publisher descriptions, not claimed playthroughs. Store identities were checked on October 7, 2026. Old review counts, repeated promotional praise, and unsupported hardware advice have been removed.
16. OneShot
A top-down puzzle adventure about guiding a child through a world whose sun has died—and which knows you exist. Choose it for puzzles that blur the boundary between player and protagonist, rather than for combat. The original PC OneShot and World Machine Edition are different editions; the Spanish source discussed desktop-window interactions but embedded the latter’s widget. Check the edition before following platform-specific advice. Original PC edition and World Machine Edition.
17. Night in the Woods
Exploration, conversation, and character relationships lead this adventure. It is a more natural choice than an action RPG if returning to a town and getting to know its residents sounds rewarding. The trade-off is pace: the appeal depends on caring about everyday interactions, not simply moving from one challenge to another. Steam page.
18. Chicory: A Colorful Tale
Painting is both a creative activity and the tool used to explore and solve puzzles. Pick it if you want experimentation that visibly changes the world, rather than a list of combat upgrades. Its coloring-book presentation is an invitation to make things your own; it does not mean the adventure is just a passive drawing application. Steam page.
19. Undertale
An RPG whose encounters let you respond to enemies without necessarily killing them. That makes it relevant for players who care about how choices and character personalities connect to battle mechanics. The simple visual style is not the main reason to choose it; curiosity about those encounters is. Reading route solutions before starting can spoil the decisions the game asks you to make. Steam page.
20. DELTARUNE
A separate, parallel story to Undertale, with a party of characters and action-filled battles in which fighting or sparing remains important. The 2025 selection covered chapters 1–4; the store now lists chapters 1–5 with more planned. Choose it if you are happy following a story that continues through updates, not if you require every planned chapter to be finished before buying. Steam page.
21. LISA: The Painful
A bleak RPG journey with dark humor and distressing themes. It is worth considering when you want an alternative to comfortable heroic fantasy, particularly one where hardship is central to the premise. This is not the relaxed pick in the volume: check the publisher’s content warnings rather than choosing it solely because of its retro graphics. Steam page.
22. Overbowed
A retro action-adventure platformer in a kingdom corrupted by magic, with a magical bow at the center of its fighting. It is a specific option for players who want an older handheld-style exploration game rather than a high-budget presentation. If polishing and cinematic storytelling matter more to you than retro platforming, another entry will be a better fit. Steam page.
23. SHINOBI NON GRATA
A deliberately hard-core 2D ninja action game with seven weapons. Choose it when learning how to use a toolkit under pressure is the attraction. The retro art is not evidence of an easy experience: the developer explicitly calls it hard-core, making it a poor default recommendation for someone who wants a gentle first platformer. Steam page.
24. Kraino Origins
A scythe-wielding platformer with monsters, secret areas, unlockable weapons, and hazards such as saws and acid. It suits players who want familiar retro obstacle courses with a horror-cartoon flavor. The focus is moving through dangerous stages, so choose Night in the Woods instead if you want a leisurely character-led evening. Steam page.
25. RESTLESS SOUL
A comedy adventure about a soul trying to return to life, mixing dialogue, puzzles, and lighter bullet-hell battles. It is the alternative here for readers interested in the afterlife but not the relentlessly bleak tone of LISA. Humor is subjective; inspect a trailer or sample dialogue rather than treating our interest in the premise as a guarantee that every joke will land. Steam page.
26. LIMBO
A dark puzzle-platformer following a boy into an uncertain world. Its sparse presentation makes atmosphere and interpreting hazards more important than collecting equipment or following lengthy dialogue. Choose it for visual storytelling and puzzle-solving; avoid treating it as a harmless children’s game because the protagonist is a child. Steam page.
27. INSIDE
Another Playdead puzzle-platformer, this time following a hunted boy into a disturbing project. It belongs beside LIMBO because both rely on environmental storytelling, but it is a separate game, not an expansion. If you want this type of tightly directed, unsettling adventure, avoid plot summaries; if you want branching role-play or build customization, look elsewhere. Steam page.
28. Rayman Origins
A colorful 2D platformer for players who prefer movement challenges to the dialogue-led entries above. Its animated world is a useful tonal change after LIMBO or INSIDE. This is a publisher-backed Ubisoft game, not an obscure independent release; it remains in the historical selection because the platforming fit matters more than the label. Steam page.
29. Rayman Legends
Legends adds another set of illustrated worlds and music-led platforming to the Rayman choice. Consider it for a shared-screen platforming evening: the Spanish source describes local play for up to four. Do not confuse online challenges or leaderboards with an online cooperative campaign. Check your purchased edition’s multiplayer features before inviting remote friends. Steam page.
30. BattleBlock Theater
A platforming and puzzle adventure that can be played solo or cooperatively, framed as prisoners performing in a theater controlled by cats. It makes sense if absurd comedy and solving obstacles with a partner sound more appealing than a serious narrative. Co-op changes the social character of the recommendation; confirm both players want coordination and repeated attempts, not just passive company. Steam page.
Which branch should you try?
- Conversation first: Night in the Woods.
- Puzzles that acknowledge the player: OneShot.
- Creative interaction: Chicory.
- Hard retro action: SHINOBI NON GRATA.
- Platforming with another person: BattleBlock Theater or local Rayman Legends.
