i don't play a ton of video games but this is my fav - love all the mythology stuff, the art style, the gameplay, everything. hard but not unnecessarily so, and very satisfying to beat!

hades

i think i'm the last switch owner on the planet to play this game, but in case i'm not, you should get this game. i tend to shy away from brutally hard games because i'm actually not that great at games, but i got sucked into the story and gameplay of hades so quickly that i couldn't care less about dying 20 times over. i can feel myself improving in every run and yet i'm still challenged each time. incredibly worth it, especially if you catch it on sale (but honestly, even if you don't)

Battle of olympus

I got my PhD in greek mythology and baroque counterpoint music theory playing this game on the NES as a little kid.
You have to go to the underworld and fight Hades in the end, it was so scary 😱

katamari damacy / bloodbourne / hollow knight / gorogoa

Can (and often do) gush about these for hours. Katamari Damacy is the most fun work of art you will ever engage with, wears its pop art influences on its sleeves and we're all better for it. Bloodbourne turned me from a distant FromSoft admirer to a boots on the ground freak. I think about starting a NG+ run at least once a day (it's been a year since rolling credits!). Hollow Knight is the best metroidvania by a very wide margin, have never beaten the final boss over the span of 4 playthroughs because the idea of it ending is too sad. Gorogoa is the only puzzle game I've enjoyed with no caveats, really wonderful gameplay and style!
