Grim fandango — 7. Grim Fandango: Grim Fandango is a cult classic from the folks over at Lucas Arts. You take the role of Manuel "Manny" Calavera, who is a travel agent at the Department of Death. We won't spoil anything, but the game's art style really sets it apart, and that's not even the best part. (Credit: Lucas Arts)

Monkey island tales — 6. The Monkey Island series: Well well, another adventure game from Lucas Arts. Who'd have thought? The Monkey Island series is bizarre in the best of ways. Have you ever thought of doing a manatee mating ritual with a dictionary? It'll make sense once you have played the game, trust us! (Credit: Lucas Arts)

Halo combat evolved — 5. Halo Combat Evolved: The first Halo game came out almost 20 years ago, in November of 2001. Aside from the somewhat clunky controls compared to modern shooters, it still holds its ground outstandingly well. (Credit: Xbox Game Studios)

System shock 2 — 4. System Shock 2: System Shock 2 was a defining game for the survival horror RPG genre. It came out in 1999, and over 20 years later it's just as enjoyable. If you're a fan of the genre, it's a strong recommendation! (Credit: Electronic Arts)

Age of empires 2 — 3. Age of Empires 2: AoE 2 is one of the most memorable RTS games ever, and for good reason. For the title's 20-year anniversary in 2019, AoE 2 received some technical improvements, providing a higher resolution options, and more fps than ever. Thankfully, the gameplay remained the same.

Half life — 2. Half-Life: The original Half-Life was really something different, as it raised the bar for every other shooter for years to come. The game led to the creation of Counter-Strike, and many other popular mods, that got their own game (such as Team Fortress 2). Over two decades later, Half-Life is still a masterpiece that rightfully deserves praise. (Credit: Valve Corporation)

Heroes 3 of might and magic — 1. Heroes 3 of Might and Magic: Heroes 3 is THE Heroes game that we all know and love. Why? It looked good, it played well, it offered online multiplayer, and on top of that, it aged really well. The sprites graphics look amazing even today! The best part is that the game still has a thriving community, and even received an unofficial expansion with Horn of the Abyss. If you plan on buying the title, make sure you get the Complete edition, not the HD one. (Credit: Ubisoft)
