We all have that one game or genre that never gets old and we return to time and time again.

What is it for you and why is that the case?

Older: Command and Conquer Generals. I’ve started playing it with my kid which is fun. Newer: Rocket League. It’s been fun especially when I stop caring about ranking up. It’s just a game and I can play for 10 minutes and walk away.

The newish C&C Remastered has been one of my comfort food games the last few years. I’d love a Generals Remastered though!

Halo 3, any of the older guitar hero or rock band games. Or OSRS.

Killing Floor. I'll probably be playing that game till the day I die.

Idle games or incremental games are my go-to for casual play. At the moment I'm playing through NGU Idle mainly because It's a super slow burn but unlocks lots of goofy features over time. I've been progressing for a couple years now.

  1. Rogue Legacy

I could play it endlessly. Death is expected and you constantly upgrade. And when you have a good run it really feels like you've earned it, as opposed to a lot of Rogues that make you feel like you got lucky with buffs.

  1. Final Fantasy VIII

There's so many ways you can play it. And there are so many ways to grind beyond the typical RPG way of killing more monsters.

  1. Morrowind

It's simply the most amazing world to get lost in. There's something to do or explore around every corner. And the game practically begs you to break it.

  1. Final Fantasy XII

This one is my current game. They made an ATB turn based system somehow real time. And it's so cathartic to wonder around beautiful landscapes killing monsters in classic ATB style seamlessly.
