Every year, there are loads of games that come out vying for gamers' attention. Many can command hundreds of hours just to beat, and take even more time to complete all the achievements. With so much pressure to keep up with the latest and greatest games, a lot of smaller titles that offer some unique fun can go missed. So here are five you may not have realized you should have in your life.
Roller Champions
You can explore the world of roller derby with an extreme twist in Roller Champions. You’ll join up with another two players in 3v3 matches, showing off your skating skills as you try to outmaneuver your opponents. Take the ball for a few laps, hit your shot, and score big to win. You can team up with friends online, go it alone, or play custom matches. And you can enjoy the game for free.
Untitled Goose Game
Who knew all the fun you could have as a goose. In Untitled Goose Game, you get to explore a quaint little town. The catch? You’re a pesky little goose that doesn’t want to mind its own business. You can get up to some wild shenanigans, pulling pranks and causing chaos for the town's inhabitants. And you can even play it together with a friend for double the goosey action. Honestly, it’s really, really funny to play or watch!
Overcooked All You Can Eat
Have you ever watched a cooking show and thought, "That doesn’t look so hard?" Well, why don’t you put your cooking skills to the test in Overcooked! All You Can Eat. The game throws you into all sorts of wacky scenarios as you have to survive a chaotic kitchen while preparing as much food as possible. Cook on a spinning spaceship or in the middle of a lava field. Just don’t let the food burn.
Ultimate Chicken Horse
If you love turning to your friends and saying, "I bet you can’t…," then you’re going to get a kick out of Ultimate Chicken Horse. At its heart, this game is a basic platformer. But it combines that with a level-building system and the competitive nature of Horse. You and your friends will take turns adding obstacles to the map, trying to make it so you can still finish the level but your friends cannot.
Human: Fall Flat
What’s better than a wacky physics simulator? A wacky physics simulator with friends. Human: Fall Flat puts you in all sorts of odd scenarios with a goal to reach, but you’ve got to conquer a variety of challenges made all the more difficult by the clumsy physics of your character and the world around you. Of course, you get to play with friends, too. You can work together to make the challenges easier or work against each other to see who’s got the better mastery of their floppy little character and the world around them.
