Of course, it’s not right to do all these alone. Collect fantastic beasts that you can keep as your companion and watch them grow from cute, to legen--wait for it--dary levels. That meme is so dead, I’m sorry.

2. Sdorica -sunset-

This one is quite… interesting. It mixes different ideas -- it has rpg elements, and puzzles, a bit of violence, and gorgeous anime art style. The end result is pretty amazing.

It’s is a match-stuff RPG. Your character’s moves are dependent on what color the crystals you match are. If you think it’s all about luck, think again. There’s a fair bit of strategy required in it.

Rayark's Sdorica -sunset- is free to play and has a playscore 8.52
