"These Games Were Enjoyable But I Never Bothered to Finish Them" Tier

172. This Is The Only Level & Achievment Unlocked

Another entry into the small handful of Newgrounds I can remember and name. This game has a few sequels and I feel like I've played all of them to some extent (for ranking purposes, I'm just counting them all here, because damned if I know which is which but I don't think I ever finished one. It's a fun concept, playing the same level over and over with the "rules" of the game changing every time, the puzzle being to figure out the new mechanics you need to know and then managing to finish each level. I'm also including Achievement Unlocked, a game made by the same people starring the same tiny elephant that, until I looked this up, I thought was the same game. In that one, you're also navigating a small level, but with a massive list of achievements to unlock, the way to "win" being unlocking all of the achievements. That one I know I didn't finish because who has that much time?

171. Foul Play

I don't know why I never finished this one. I love the concept, a beat-em-up game where the whole thing is put on like a stage show, with the audience reacting to things happening, enemies showing up as if they're cast or props, and so on. The art style is alright (the prop effects are better than the character designs imo) and it's really a great idea, but something about beat-em-ups in general doesn't always grab me. There are some exceptions of course, I enjoyed the original Simpsons game and Scott Pilgrim and one or two we'll see on this list. I think generally the gameplay of them can get pretty repetitive and often isn't super-rewarding, which may have been why I eventually dropped this.

170. Human Fall Flat

I did like this game quite a bit, from what I played of it. Human Fall Flat suffers less from its own merits and more from how overpopulated this type of wonky physics game was in the mid 2010s. The fact that there are still quite a few left on this list should prove that. I also played back when this game was only single-player, and for a game that is so driven by the comedy of its mechanics, I feel like it would've been a lot more fun with others. It also doesn't help it's case that the backgrounds and environments feel largely bland and lifeless.
