The Tom's Hardware Steam Giveaway for 'Owlboy'

[ZeroRequiem]

Bubble Bobble and Sonic the Hedgehog 2. Still playing these games at least once a year with my sisters.

Super Mario for sure

It's pretty fun reading through this topic and remembering some old games I've played. For instance, I really enjoyed The Lost Vikings.

My very first platformer was Super Mario Land. That Game Boy game used to make me sweat as I advanced through stages that became increasingly unfamiliar. It's one of those things that can only be experienced when there is no save system, and the only progression is through your increased knowledge of the game. (Another hellish game on the Game Boy is Cosmo Tank: the soundtrack is awesome, but it was brutal!)

Prince of Persia. The first one by Jordan Mechner. It had a nice atmosphere and a story straight out of a 1001 Nights tale. It looked amazing for its time and it could be really unforgiving at certain places, so a bit of skill was required. What made it really cool was that the sword fencing part of the gameplay was fairly realistic.
