The Jules Verne steampunk premise in Steel Empire is what makes it stand out.  I love how Moon Priestess looks like Link's Awakening, I just wish it wasn't so buggy!

A while back there was a remake of Star Blazers called Space Battleship Yamato 2199.  I watched the first season of it on that CrustyRoll anime streaming service.

I can give you some NES recommendations, too, if you like.

My favorite TwinBee game is TwimBee Yahoo.  It was (I think) the last TwinBee arcade game and it's pretty awesome.  I played it on a TwinBee collection I imported on PSP.

Hey you like Picross games, don't you?  I just reviewed one called Piczle Cross: Story of Seasons.  It's a Picross game with a Story of Seasons/Harvest Moon theme.  I really liked it.

Since you have Apple Arcade I thought I'd tell you about a really fun game you can try.  Recently a game released on the Switch called Pocket Card Jockey: Ride On!  It's an enhanced port of the same game that was on the 3DS.  Turns out that enhanced port is also on Apple Arcade!  It's a game that combines solitaire with...horse racing?  Yeah, really, but it's VERY GOOD!  It was made by a company called Game Freak.  You might've heard of another game series they made, a little franchise you might know called Pokemon. :)  Anyway, you should try Pocket Card Jockey out if you get a chance.  It's fun!

When I was a kid, one of the very first anime cartoons I watched was Star Blazers.

I remember The Great Space Coaster!  It had a robot elephant that looked like Flame Mammoth from Mega Man X!

I tried to get all the weapons and upgrades in Pac-Man 256 but it took too darn long.  Still a good game though.  It was made by the same folks who did Crossy Road, you know.

I love mini consoles, but I never got the Commodore 64 mini.  I've played the C64 a few times at friends' houses as a kid, and I think my middle school computer lab had C64s, but I don't really have any special memories with games from that.

Now go play the Bluey game on Game Pass!

I read that Bluey: The Video Game is going to be on Game Pass.  You gotta play it!  :)

The DX version of Pac-Man CE changes up the gameplay a bit.  In the original game, it plays most like Pac-Man.  In DX, you have to pass sleeping ghosts to make them wake up, and then they follow you.  You can get a huge chain of ghosts following you around, and when you get a power pellet, you can gobble up the chain for mondo points.  It's fun, but I like the original better.
