Switch 2: 10 GameCube Classics That MUST Be Added

10. Doshin The Giant

In 2005, game studio Ice-Pick Lodge released Pathologic into the world. A wilfully miserable, maddeningly obtuse yet utterly beguiling experience, PC Gamer UK summed the game up with the line, "It will definitely be someone's game of the year. It almost certainly won't be yours". It's a great line, and one that applies equally to Nintendo's Gamecube-exclusive kaiju-em-up.

Doshin The Giant sees players control the eponymous titan as he interacts with the human residents of his home island. Players can either look after the villagers by terraforming the island to suit their needs, or act out their Godzilla fantasies by flattening their homes and loved ones as Doshin's evil alter-ego, Jashin.

 And that, put simply, is that.

While there is a story of sorts to follow, Doshin's simplistic gameplay means the game truly thrives as a chill-out simulator. Whether you're relaxing by taking care of the villagers or throwing them into active volcanoes, Doshin the Giant is a perfect fit in the podcast-gaming genre - something to tinker with while you listen to your favourite wrestling podcast, as a completely random example. 

Like Pathologic, Doshin The Giant likely won't be your game of the year. But it's definitely worth taking the plunge to see if you do belong in that most exclusive of categories.
