One of my favorite games of 2019 was Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. Bloodstained is a 2.5-D Metroidvania that bears more than a passing resemblance to Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

Like most geeks who fancy themselves gamers, I have a backlog of unfinished and mostly unplayed titles. What’s difficult to quantify is exactly how many games I currently have in my backlog but I know it’s not a short list. I’ve bought, received, traded and sold hundreds
Are you stuck in quarantine? Do you need something new to play? Are you itching to add several new games to your backlog that maybe you want to play at some point in the future?
