Lee-Mon's Gaming Misadventures
Damn isn't that a creative title? I love it.
Here you can find some info about the games I like, why I like them, and perhaps some essential things you need to know if you want to play these games too.
Needless to say, this site is under construction.

Spelling Wasp is a web game that I'm working on, it's a clone of The New York Times Spelling Bee, and your goal is to guess as many words as you can. Give it a try!
If you'd like to read up on it, check the article I wrote for Spelling Wasp.
Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling is a 2019 indie RPG game, taking place in the world of Bugaria. It features cute characters, very pretty visuals, catchy music, and a great story that's likely to make you feel many things. It's one of those unique gems in gaming, and I wholeheartedly recommend playing it.

Evil Egg is a late 2025 indie game that draws inspiration from old arcade games. This is a top-down 2D shooter where your objective is to shoot bad guys and rescue good guys. The controls are extremely simple, the retro aesthetic is excellent, and best of all? It's free! It's a hardcore game, the pace of gameplay is quite fast and the game will not forgive any mistakes, much like Nuclear Throne, but I think you should still give it a try.

I've played this game for 2 decades, and it remains as fun as it was in the beginning. The reason is that every round is unique, and the experience is different with every single person you play against.
In Worms Armageddon, you assume control of an army of up to 8 worms, and your goal is (usually) to attack and defeat the enemy team(s). Gameplay is turn-based, there's a decent amount of skill and strategy involved, and lots of goofy things can happen thanks to its physics system and great weapon variety. It can become absolutely hilarious. You can give your team of Worms a custom team name, you can also name each of the 8 worms, and you can set a flag, grave, voice, and team weapon on them.

Nuclear Throne is a fast-paced 2D shooter where you get to shoot a bunch of mutant creatures. It's set in a post-apocalyptic world, as in, humanity is extinct and monsters now roam the wastelands.
It's an unforgiving, yet very fun game, where player skill is the primary thing that influences how far you'll get. It's pretty cheap on Steam, though it never really goes on sale, but trust me, it's worth the full price.
For more information, visit the main article I wrote for Nuclear Throne (work in progress not really the case anymore).
I'll list here other games that I recommend you check out, but that I don't want to write full in-depth articles about.
Puyo Puyo
⚓
Puyo Puyo is an action-puzzle game where the goal is to clear the pieces (called Puyos) that constantly fall on your board, by grouping 4 or more of the same color together. Doing this sends garbage to your opponent. Once either player's board fills up to the top (the 3rd column specifically), they lose and the other player claims the win. It's similar to Tetris, and in fact, there are two games that mix both Tetris and Puyo Puyo in a single package.
Ms. Accord is in quite a pickleBy grouping colors together in a certain way, you can set off a chain reaction, or combo for simplicity, which yields a score bonus and sends more and more garbage to your opponent. The bigger the chain, the more garbage you send. It quickly becomes very deadly.
The Puyo Puyo series exists since 1991 and consists of many titles, each with their own particular storyline but with a familiar cast of characters. Many variants of the basic Puyo Puyo gameplay exist, each providing a unique twist on the formula, but the most common rules nowadays are Tsu and Fever.
If you want a particular game recommendation, consider grabbing either Puyo Puyo Tetris or Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 on Steam. These come with a story mode, a variety of single player modes, local multiplayer, and online functionality. If money is a concern, get the first game, otherwise I recommend the second. They're largely the same game, but the story modes are different, and PPT2 is overall more polished and has more characters to choose from.
If you'd rather play on an emulator to try it out, I'd say Puyo Puyo 20th Anniversary on PSP is one of your best bets. Grab a ROM from your favorite ROM site that's not Myrient because Myrient is sadly gone however archives exist go look them up *ahem* and the english translation patch. This game contains pretty much every Puyo Puyo ruleset that exists, and its story mode has an individual storyline for each character, consisting of 8 levels. You can get familiarized with Puyo Puyo's characters, world, and gameplay all at once with this game.
Undertale & Deltarune
⚓
The Undertale logo. The economy is bad and I couldn't afford a spot for the Deltarune logo, but they're pretty similar. Use your imagination just this once, alright?Undertale is a game I hold dear, and Deltarune also belongs in that category. These two are RPG games that are heavily story-driven, but the gameplay's also pretty good, and there's enough twists thrown in to keep it interesting. They somewhat follow the RPG formula, but with a bullet hell element in the battle sections, and plenty of choices throughout the story. A major difference with the typical game is that you don't need to kill anyone, or do you? Maybe just follow your own path and see where it takes you. I don't wanna give more details since I truly believe that you need to experience these games yourself.
Undertale made a huge splash when it was released in 2015, and still holds a spot as one of the best indie titles out there. There's a deep story, lots of character development, the music is amazing, and the humor is top-notch. Really clever stuff across the board.
Deltarune's still in development. It features similar elements to Undertale, but more polished. The first chapter came out in 2018, chapter 2 in 2021, and chapters 3+4 in 2025. The first two chapters are available as a free demo if you'd like to get a taste of the game. They're not very long, but I recommend you sit down for a long session if you have the time. You could play through each chapter in an evening, or maybe two or three if you're not too fast.
Chapters 3 and onwards are paid, but you only have to purchase the game once, with future chapters becoming available as they're finished and released.
I recommend playing these two games, but start with Undertale if you can. Deltarune features the same characters but is not directly connected to the universe of Undertale, everyone's living a different life, though Deltarune features many nods to Undertale that you'll only notice if you've played it. Also, if you somehow know absolutely nothing about these games, you should avoid looking up any information and just go ahead and play them. You'll thank yourself for it.
Animal Well
⚓
This is an indie game from 2024, following the Metroidvania formula with puzzle-platforming elements. You don't directly fight enemies in this game, instead you survive through the use of tools, or with some wits. The rules are taught to you intuitively, there's no tutorials or text guides to tell you what to do, so completing each challenge requires you to pay attention and figure out a solution with the cues the game gives you.
What I love about this game is that it's short, sweet, it's well designed, and genuinely makes your mind work, while not being an excruciating workout, unlike games like Baba Is You, where the mental load is so insane and the solutions so obtuse, that it ends up making you feel frustrated. I felt quite good figuring out and solving puzzles here, and I didn't need to rely on the wiki for beating the game. I completed it in two long sessions (about 12 hours give or take), it might take you more or less, but save points are plentiful, so don't worry about needing to take it in shorter sessions.
I did end up using the wiki later so I could grab all the collectibles though. In the process I discovered that this seemingly simple game has a surprising level of depth. If you're the kinda person that likes squeezing every last drop of juice out of a game, this one will keep you busy for a while. If you're an achievement hunter, you can get all of them in a few sessions with the help of a guide, and if you're just a gamer who wants to play and experience a game, this is an excellent pick.
