Balatro and Vampire Survivors are natural picks because number goes up dopamine hits, but I gotta give a huge shoutout to Lunistice. 3D platformer with extremely tight controls, possibly the tightest I’ve experienced. I even got 100% achievements, which I never do, because it feels just that good to play.
Honorable mentions to House Flipper 2 and Powerwash Simulator for good games to relax while feeding that perfectionism itch.
Funny thing is that across the JP sphere (including 2ch!) they’re mostly a mix of curiosity about the daily lives of Chinese girls and how it’ll differ from Japanese anime and nostalgia because it could have come straight out of 2014 Kirara (like Yuyushiki, Kiniro Mosaic, etc). Twitter manages to be more Hitler on behalf of Japan than Japan itself.
