Suggestions for Games I Should Review on YouTube?

[Kilyle]

I've recently started my (very slowly updated) YouTube channel, and I do want to review games.

On Steam, I've noticed more and more games that appear to be created with RPG Maker or similar programs.  And despite the fact that I should be open to these, I find myself with a ton of resistance to either spending money on them or spending time playing them.  Part of me associates this art form with "amateur," which I know is unfair.  And I know for a fact that some of the games made with this type of engine are gold -- I've seen Markiplier play several of them, including To the Moon, The Witch's House, and Ib.

So I'm here to ask for a short list of the most highly recommended games to come out of this community, which I might easily download or purchase and then review on YouTube.

My criteria, right now, is that they can't be super long.  My attention span is not what it used to be.  The inability to stick with a project has long been a character flaw of mine, so that just acerbates it.  So for right now, I need to stick to shorter, more self-contained games.

I grew up on JRPGs and used to love the art form.  I'm open to particularly cream-of-the-crop examples right now.  I'm also interested in anything that uses the engine in an unusual way, and any game that managed to make lack of combat engaging (as To the Moon did).

So please suggest some games for me to try

Well, I would suggest our chain game the Wrath of Gaia, I felt like it had a lot of variety and I don't remember it being that long. Each member made 2 chapters, so we ended up with 9 in total. Maybe 2-3 hours. Removing random encounters does wonders. Of course it depends on if you get stuck at a puzzle or not. But if you get tired you can just quit at the end of a chapter.

Other than that, I know Zuhane has a made a few. They are pretty crazy but not that long, and when I say "pretty crazy" I mean that the story will make no sense and you are stuck in a vortex of psychedelic randomness.

Other than that I have to promote some of my games. Most aren't more than tech demos but with a rather coherent story. None of them are great but they have a unique battle system.

There is also my old entry for the Crappy Game Contest "Sprite for Life", it's mostly based around expectations... And pissing you off.

Other than that I have a hard time remembering complete projects to be honest. I feel bad because I know some people finished their games.

OFF or HOME please! They are both fantastically made horror puzzle games. Mondo coolio!

Well I hope it's not a game that relies on math

When you say 2-3 hours, is that total, or per chapter?

Also, I'm gonna assume that RPG Maker games are fine for Let's Plays -- that is, the creators desire more exposure and don't mind people making videos that show the entire game, and that the music used is such that it won't trigger the ContentID system.  Do you know of any information either confirming this assumption or refuting it, whether generally or for specific creators?
