Few games’ premises caught my eye as much as To The Moon‘s when it was first announced and revealed earlier this year. Here was a game where you had to dive into a dying man’s memories in order to change them so he believes his wish of going to the moon is fulfilled. The possibilities, I thought. The splendour. In a market swimming with run-of-the-mill titles, To The Moon was something of a harbinger for the independent market, or so I thought at the time. How did it really end up?

The end? Who cares about the end! Tidus was a baby. What about Jehct, my favorite one arm wielding spirit :'(
How is metal gear solid 3 snake eater not on this list? I was sad for days with that ending.
Some games hit people hard. Which is a relief when people need to let emotions out. So settle in with these seven games.
