I know what you're thinking - this list has been filled with games that missed their mark, disappointed us, or were downright broken. What is the critically and player-acclaimed This War of Mine doing on this list?

Well, there are basically two types of people in the world - at least two types who played TWoM - and both of them have a little regret in their souls.

For those who thought the survival mechanics were too gamey or the progression too slow to even warrant trying, you no doubt felt betrayed by those good reviews. For those who thought the game was as fantastic as it claimed to be... you likely have underlying trauma, induced by the heart-wrenching story beats of the game.

Whether you raged at the idea of a single-use filter, or thirsty people not drinking rain water because it "wasn't clean", or you simply bawled your eyes out as you pilfered meds from an old couple to save your housemate, you were in the same boat.

Pained by our decisions - mostly our decision to play such a traumatic game.
