UFO 50 feels like when you were a child and went over to your friend's house who had a different console than you. Some games felt quite familiar but still different enough to feel distinct. Some games were unlike anything else you've ever played.
UFO 50 isn't a collection of mini-games, it's 50 full games. A good number of them are arcade-style games that are short, but difficult, (aka "Quarter Munchers"). However, there are many different styles of games here. From strategy, to RPG, to point & click, to metroidvania, puzzle games, and even more.
Many of the games have nods to others within the collection. A few games are even sequels.
It's neat to see the evolution of games from 1 to 50. You see the evolution of gameplay, graphics, and sound throughout them all.
The controls feel very tight and polished overall.
The music is awesome and quite varied. There is a ton if it too. The soundtrack has 331 tracks!!!
The developers spent roughly eight years on UFO 50 and it shows.
I've only finished a few games from the collection, and there is much more gameplay and many secrets left for me to uncover.
Whether you love retro style games or not, UFO 50 is guaranteed to have something you'll like.

I give UFO 50 a High Recommendation.
10 outta 10
Thanks Devs!

This is a fun and cute zoo management game. You can manage almost every aspect of the game.
One of the best features is being able splice different types of animals together to make funny animals.
The soundtrack is awesome.

If you take Tenchu : Stealth Assassins and Dark Souls, and throw them into a blender you get Sekiro.

It has very similar stealth mechanics to Tenchu and the hardcore combat of Dark Souls.
It's a good game that mixes them both up into a glorious fashion

In short, this game is 10/10.
It's one of my all time favorites.
It has a fantastic gameplay loop, it has an amazing soundtrack, it's fun, and it's relaxing.
Controls great with mouse and keyboard, or a controller.

This is more than just a farming simulator.
You can farm, fish, forage, and go mining to mine for ore and fight monsters.
The townsfolk will even give you optional tasks. Over time you can develop friendly relationships with them and even get married and have children.
One great thing about this game is that you can do as much, or as little as you feel like.
Every option is viable.
The game can be very relaxing and therapeutic. Especially due to the soundtrack. This game is worth the soundtrack alone.
I love it.

Thank you ConcernedApe for this wonderful game.

Do you often contemplate the vastness of the universe and the molecular workings of the world we live in? If you answered "yes", then you will most likely enjoy this experience. Good ambient style soundtrack, and the periodic words from Alan Watts are a great touch. This is a nice relaxant.

Shovel Knight is the best NES game that was never on the Nintendo. Feels familiar but fresh. It has great characters, great looking pixels, and a fantastic soundtrack. Highly recommended if you like old school platformers.
