My favorite game right now is Red Dead Redemption 2. If perfection were a game, it would be Red Dead 2. I love how every chapter is different from the last, including the epilogue. I love how diverse the cast is and how you can go on special, one-on-one missions with most of them. I can tell how much love the developers put into this game.
Most of all, I love the city of Saint Denis.
I’m from New Orleans, so running around a literal copy of my home city as a cowboy is a DREAM for me. I’m in love with the missions of Saint Denis.
My favorite mission of all time is in Saint Denis, where Arthur helps smuggle a friend out of the city while said friend is dressed in full-on drag.
Overall, the main reason why I adore Red Dead 2 is the content in Saint Denis.

There are many games that I’ve played throughout my life, therefore making it somewhat difficult for me to choose a truly favorite game. As of right now though, there is one game in particular that has piqued my interest again recently with the release of chapters three and four: Deltarune.
There is a lot I could talk about Deltarune, but to sum it up, it has really intriguing characters and storylines to me. An anthropomorphic TV with abandonment issues, a living being born of spam emails that spiraled himself down into insanity and wants to be free and a really cool old turtle dude.
Plus there is all the stuff that the story has been building up in the current chapters and through content outside the game with real websites and videos.
I should also mention another contender is Powerwash Simulator. I truly have no other reason than that it is a very relaxing and addicting game to play.

One of my favorite games is a bit of a classic for people my age, Papa’s Freezeria. I used to play it often when I was a kid and have recently gotten back into it. In the game, you play as a character running a milkshake restaurant alone, serving customers’ orders in order to make it to the end of the week. Then, you get a paycheck and can spend it on cosmetic items like new outfits, furniture, and decorations for the lobby of the restaurant.
I find that it is a good game to play while watching a YouTube video in the background with the game volume muted, but the background track is also really fun, with a light, fun beat in the background.
I’d definitely recommend the game to anyone around my age who grew up playing it on CoolMathGames, or really to anyone who likes time management games.

There are a lot of games I like playing whenever I have free time. I have a few favorites I consistently go back to, or am just always happy to play, like Minecraft, Cult of the Lamb, Stardew Valley and Dungeons and Dragons.
Though I’m aware that all of these games are very different from each other, depending on how you play them, they’re my all-time favorites. However, that doesn’t mean that these are the only games I play.
I’ve been playing a lot of Peak recently, and it’s become my favorite new game that I’m obsessing over at the moment. While it’s a lot more fun in multiplayer, I still find joy and pride in getting past certain biomes and gaining achievements by myself. I still haven’t beaten the game by myself yet, but it’s definitely one I’d recommend. Mainly cause it can get pretty silly, and who doesn’t love a silly game?
