"Each year, GameSpot staff go into our annual top 10 and Game of the Year deliberations with their own favorites. Sometimes they're games you're sure are a shoo-in for the award; other times, you know it'll be an uphill battle because few others have played your top pick. Those awards are ultimately a reflection of our team as a whole, but that doesn't mean we don't still cling to our own personal favorites."
"Strange Visitors keep coming to my house at night, mimicking the appearance of humans, and trying to get in for shelter from the deathly fireball in the sky. Their plights vary--some deliver a sob story to try to get me to take pity on them, some have descended into insanity from the intense fear, and some just seem a bit too blasé about the whole situation. It's up to me to decide who to let in."
A selection of personal-favorite 2025 video games showcases compelling, unconventional experiences that did not achieve mainstream top-ten placement. Titles include PC game No, I'm Not A Human, which stages a tense 14-day survival scenario where an approaching solar catastrophe forces decisions about sheltering visitors. Strange Visitors mimic humans and present varied pleas, with identification cues revealed via periodic news broadcasts. Players must judge who to admit, risking fatal mistakes; one misjudgment can lead to executing an innocent. The compilation highlights emotional, moral-choice gameplay and suggests several underrated games worth checking despite limited broader attention.
