The genderfluid crocodile in #85 killed me. And #116 did a great job tricking three of us (including me) into thinking that it was something very specific, but very wrong. I wonder if I can pull that off in the next season... Great tournament so far!

"Everyone is totally convinced they know what it is and they're wrong" is one of the best categories of rec.

Rec #115

This is a game full of canon queer and neurodivergent rep! The two main characters are traumatized and end up gay for each other. There’s also a very cute lesbian couple, and the villain is a misogynist who you can beat up in many of the endings. Oh yeah, and the main character is autistic!

Rec #116

Do you like sci-fi adventures on an alien planet? Badass female protagonists? What about some unlockable upgrades that let you explore new places and defend against dangerous aliens more effectively? There's even some fascinating lore to unearth if you know where to look in this DOOM-inspired first-person shooter!
