We all know that Reloaded has a fantastic selection of brilliant games, but what games are the BEST?
What games do you think stand out more than the others?

Try to pick at least one game from each catagory on Reloaded, but you can pick more than one if you want.

So let's find the best games on Reloaded.  When enough people have voted, I'll count the votes, and post them here.

Let's find the Best of the Best!  



Here's my list:


Action
OnEscapee



Adventure
Barn Runner 5 Chapter 1 (and all the Barn Runner games)
Ben Jordan 3
Frasse & The Peas Of Kejick
What Makes You Tick?



Arcade
Dizzy Prince Of The Yolkfold
Jardinians
Phoenix



Puzzle
Essence Child
Lemmings Remake



Racing
Bump N Jump



RPG
System Shock Portable



Simulation
Minigolf Maniacs
Mr Putts Minigolf



Strategy
Domination Risk

C'mon people.  Don't be shy.  What are the best games from each catagory?  

[Eagle of Fire]

In the strategy section, the only game even worth of mention is Battle for Westnoth.

[Doubler]

Hmm...

Action
N, GTA, GTA 2...

Adventure
5 Days a Stranger, any King's Quest, Penumbra?

Arcade
Keen, most of Dizzy, Jardinains, Knytt, Knytt Stories, Prince of Persia, Llamatron! (but seriously, llamatron is kind of mediocre, aside from the fact it features llamas )

Puzzle
Crayon Physics, Soko-Ban Armageddon.

Racing
Euh...

RPG
ADoM, Arena.

Simulation
Noctis!

Strategy
Ground Control. (if this isn't even worth mention...)

[Japofran]

Adventure: 5 Days a Stranger, 7 Days a Skeptic, Trilby's Notes
"Arcade": 1213

(No my brain didn't get sore thinking of these.)

PS: Why in Blah?

That's news to me but I'll take your word for it

--------------------

Strategy > The Ur-Quan Masters

(Can't believe I missed that in the first post!! Perhaps because I always played the original.)

And yes,

Adventure > The Abbey of Crime

[Frodo]

We're doing good so far, thanks to those who have posted.  
Who else wants to post their favourite games from each section?

[pmprog]

Action
Action Doom][: Urban Brawl

Adventure
Chzo mythos (5 days a stranger, 7 days a skeptic, and 6 days a sacrifice)
No Action Jackson

Arcade
The Bub's Brothers
One Must Fall 2097

Puzzle
Ninjah

Simulation
Minigolf Maniacs

I must admit, some of it is biased because I haven't played a number of games on the site, but these are some of the ones I have, and thoroughly enjoyed them.

[Frodo]

Well, hopefully you can find some other games on the site that you like as well.  

[pmprog]

Indeed. I've already found several great games off this site. In fact, on your "Would like on this site" list, I've played that Solar Wars and really enjoyed it. I'll try and make some time to try and review it for this site.

[Eagle of Fire]

I didn't realize that OMF was on Reloaded. This game is definitely worth of mention in the Arcade section.

[Frodo]

Maybe you should have a look through our games, and see what else you like.  You never know what will surprise you.  

[Eagle of Fire]

No thanks, I am really a strategy gamer at hearth.

This is also why I am so disheartened by Reloaded and freeware in general... Check the amount of adventure games there is, and then check the amount of strategy games available... It's appaling.

Edit: Ah, and I'd like to amend my previous statement. I missed Vantage Master V2 at the end of the list. It is also worth of mention in the Strategy section.

[Frodo]

Well if you want more strategy games on site, you could always review some strategy games for us.
