  • Clearing the screen Tetris franchise Tetris is one of the most widely played and copied puzzle games of all time.

  • The goal of aligning blocks in a row to make them disappear is a simple one, but also an extremely satisfying one to see in action.

  • However, along with the immensely catchy music, another thing that will get a player's heart rate up is seeing their screens filled with blocks and be unable to clear them away.

  • So when you're starting to panic at the increasing number of blocks, nothing soothes your soul quite like finding that one block you need to wipe it all away and start fresh.

  • Yeah, number nine BfG 9000 slashed Super Shotgun Doom franchise Waiting through the various devil spawn that have attacked Mars and its moons is no easy task for Doom guy or the players controlling him.

  • Games can start to feel Sammy, but Ghost of Tsushima manages to stand out through this awesome mechanic standoffs.

  • Instead of running up in button mashing until your foe is dead, you can choose to do the honorable thing and challenge them to a duel.

  • All right, then a cinematic standoff ensues like the conclusion of a samurai movie, and you must use precise timing to strike and kill your opponent.

  • And while getting it wrong can be disappointing and frustrating when you get it right, the slow mo kill strike never fails to make you feel like a total badass.

  • Instead, it's an S.

  • Yeah, to a title.

  • To achieve an S rank in a game usually requires completing a level or a challenge with absolute perfection and often within a certain time limit to the S may as well stand for skill, because if you get it, you know you've got it.

  • Get it.

  • Number six.

  • Beating Hades for the first time.

  • Hades.

  • Mhm.

  • Okay, now we can hear you asking Beat the game, Hades or the boss of the same name.

  • And if you die, you basically reset, though with some added perks.

  • This makes for punishing difficulty and numerous runs as you try to defeat the Greek god of the underworld to borrow from another Greek myth.

  • Playing this game can make you feel like you're Sisyphus pushing a boulder up a hill for eternity.

  • And although the regular enemies are often enough to make your life flash before your eyes multiple times, bosses are on another level entirely.

  • Number three spiking opponents Super Smash Brothers franchise.
