I’m looking for action hidden gems, preferably scripted and linear—no open world or procuderal generation (roguelike, roguelike-like, or roguelite)

Some of my “usual suspects” favorites are Bayonetta, The Wonderful 101, Viewtiful Joe, God Hand, and Ninja Gaiden II. On the shmup/twin-stick shooter side: Crimzon Clover, Ketsui, and Assault Android Cactus+.

I also love Catherine, so I wouldn’t mind some puzzle thrown in there.

As nonlinear as I can go: The Deadly Tower of Monsters.

    glad I could help, if I remember anything else I might chime in once more

    Aces Wild is an exhausting game. I actually need to take a break after playing for 15min or so due to how high octane it is. But its a damn good game.

    Brigador, as I mentioned, is no unga bunga action game. You might think at first you’re a big warrior riding on their mech, but a few sudden defeats will humble you and set your mindset into what the game actually is about - strategic war crimes.
