I didn't own, but dogplayingtetris (Michael Khanh) did, 1st NES Tetris Rebirth

[Mathel]

I raided Red Dawn HQ, killing 32 foes, including 3 armored cars, and retrieving the Memory Card, all without a single of my own agents dying.
Cyber Armor is good.

OpenXCom: X-Com Files

[Akura]

Mostly cheesed Capra Demon, using firebombs thrown over the fog wall to kill his dogs and take off about a fifth of his health, before taking the fight directly to him.

Without the dogs, the fight is sooooo much easier.

Dark Souls. Doing a build partly based off Giantdad. Except I got the Mother mask off of Pinwheel(yes, I killed Pinwheel already), so at this point I'm more of a Bigmom.

I killed a Titan!

Turns out, machinegun + two turrets + projectiles for everyone + Lawnmower + Hull boosters + 5 Medkits + Assault & Semi-auto Rifles is quite effective!
I also gave everyone a nice pair of glasses to see better, and various types of scopes.  Katanas for everyone, as well.

Dustland Delivery

[Jopax]

I also killed a titan, a titan of time to be specific. Managed to cobble together a build for the twin torches that basically buffed the attack damage, speed and my movement speed while channeling it to stupid levels. Add to it the Poseidon boon that basically tripled my damage at the start of every fight and by the time I faced the dog I could phase him by draining my fairly meager mana bar once. Kronos was a bit trickier, even made me use up one death defiance but he could not keep up with the raw damage output of my freaking basic attack.

What's even funnier is that there was way more potential left with both certain boons, as well as upgrades that could've pushed my DPS even higher that just never appeared or there was other stuff on offer.

I defeated the Lord Governor's Ship...by landing on it!

Highfleet

Lucked into getting Baiman while making foolish decisions.

I have discovered that it is oftentimes more advantageous to avoid losing than it is to try to win. You only really need a half decent hand to get far enough in front you’re unlikely to be caught up, and finishing in second place is still a good thing in a four player game, at least at lower ranks.

Riichi Mahjjong. Found a dirty boy game called Riichi City full of boobs and butts, but I get to play against real people so I guess I can cope with it.

So I accidentally became an oil baron.

It started as the most classic expedition - royal woodlands; humans, beavers and lizards; extra people, oil and wood as bonus. First cornerstone was the bonus to veggies, and one of the first blueprints was the small farm, and there was some fertile soil in the initial glade. Things were looking good.

Turns out the first few glades I opened had patches of fertile soil as well, and in the meantime I got another cornerstone for veggies, and unlocked the press for oil. I ran on a single woodcutter camp that was rarely kept fully staffed, because I needed to keep the hostility low - sacrificing oil and marrow doesn't lower hostility.

I wasn't using water, so all blightrot was from the prestige. Every year two people would leave because the queen wanted me to send ludicrous amounts of wood that I was just not producing. Every log was either turned into planks or coal. Additionally, in year 8, 8 people died because I was cursed by the blighted traveller that I had robbed.

I did produce some complex food, but I simply didn't get the workshops that produced luxury items that I needed. Couldn't make dye for scrolls, got no workshops that produced weapons or incense. My coat production wasn't that great either. Solution - buy stuff with oil.

The positive forest mystery doubled the rep gain from morale, so I had to overcome the high hostility with as much coddling as I could give my people. And so, traders left my settlements happy, with wagons full of oil, while my lizards were generating reputation like there's no tomorrow.

Against the Storm

[Great Order]

A sunder with an ITU+advanced optics is disgusting. HIL, two ion beams/graviton beams based on preference and you can really reach out and touch someone. And being a relatively light destroyer, you've got a decent level of manoeuvrability so most ships struggle to actually catch you, especially big, lumbering ones. Smaller ships also struggle, just because by the time they reach you you've burned through a good chunk of armour or their shields are seriously soft-fluxed.

Starsector

During my first mission on a planet surface, I did a maneuver to break away from an attacking ace and his wingman. Their attempt to compensate for my maneuver caused them to collide, killing them both instantly. Goodness knows I'm never going to pull that off again.

Wing Commander 4: The Price of Freedom. Unfortunately, I think I actually failed that mission. I don't know if I was using that laser-camera-gun thing right, as I wasn't getting any feedback. The briefing for the next mission flat-out stated I failed to get the recon I needed.

[pisskop]

I dont play any games much, so when I booted the game up and a perfectly functional is slightly underwhelming powers deck fall into my lap I took it.  Block was a constant issue, but we somehow managed.

Highlights include Smoking Reptomancer and the Collector, and surviving both the Awakened One and Spire S/S with less than 10 HP a piece.  1 exactly in the case of the latter.

Went into the Gladiator Arena worried about my injured proto-duelist.  It's, like, day 5 or something, but still, all it takes is one bad roll to ruin a run.

Spark bolt with trigger, and chainsaw.

Not an uber powerful combo, but there was a 50:50 chance that the chainsaw would hit the target and do hefty damage. I only got down to the second floor, but that was because I'd managed to almost completely explore the fungal caverns, which historically have chewed me up and shat me out. I also had a triplicate spell chainsaw in case I really, *really* needed something to die. Ate through the wand's mana like nobody's business, but that didn't matter, nothing stood up to it for more than a quarter of a second, it was ridiculous.

I died because an enemy got hold of a death cross wand. Got me down to 2 hp, survived 5 minutes fighting enemies with that little health, got to a portal only to find it flooded with blood and with about 5 or 6 enemies swimming around. I made a valiant effort, but there were too many explosions and shotgun pellets flying around for me to dodge.

Converted my main industrial base into an all-in-one by tearing everything down and rebuilding it as one big tower. In the process, I mostly figured out the pathing tolerances for most big Pals, such as Reptyro*, Helzephyr*, and Selyne*. Particularly giant Pals, such as an Alpha-sized Jormundtide, are probably too large, unfortunately.

Basically, most Pals can handle pathways one tile wide, but I went with two-tile paths and stairways. I did learn that Pals can't path upstairs unless every tile above each stair is empty - since my stairs are two tiles wide and three walls high, I need a 2x3 hole in the floor over the stair in order to path up and down the stairs.

I have the tower arranged thusly: the ground floor is where I have the mines, farms, power production, refineries, and main storage(as well as the Palbox console). There is also two oil wells, but powering one pump takes an extreme amount of power. Second floor is where all the beds, hot springs, and food prep areas are. Third floor is where both manufacturing and the medical and research centers are. The med/sci section is where all the egg incubators, medicine production, and Pal condenser is located.

The rooftop is where I have the Ranches and Breeding Farms, plus the expedition platform since all of these are too large to easily put them anywhere below. I used the remaining space to build myself a small house.

Took me a few days, and so much metal and stone that trying to restock on ingots got me the Iron Heart achievement.

Palworld.

[Great Order]

I made it through a whole century. Got to #1 in GDP, #7 in GDP per capita (Outstripped by nations with small populations prone to being funky), #1 in SoL without cooperative ownership, and jumped from having ~1.5 million pops to ~35 million pops, and had one of the largest militaries, hampered solely by me being unwilling to spend more of my prodigious income on it. Playing as Australia.

Multiculturalism with no migration controls is busted as a low pop nation. Everyone wants to live in your states because there's so many jobs free and so much arable land.
