As 2025 comes to a close, I want to take a moment to say thank you. Whether you’ve read one review or followed along all year, your support means the world. This series started as a way to finally tackle the games collecting dust in the backlog, both new and old, and it has grown into something truly special thanks to you.
Together, we’ve cleared quite a few titles off the list this year! Here are the games we completed in 2025:
Backlog Games Completed This Year
- Sonic x Shadow Generations (Xbox One)
- The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Nintendo Switch)
- Donkey Kong Bananza (Nintendo Switch 2)
- Epic Mickey Rebrushed (Nintendo Switch)
- Star Wars Jedi: Survivor (PS4)
- Pikmin 3 Deluxe (Nintendo Switch)
- Pikmin 4 (Nintendo Switch)
Each review had its surprises, new favorites, unexpected frustrations, and some games that changed how we look at their franchises entirely. And we’re just getting started.
Looking Ahead to 2026
The backlog is still massive (seriously, send help ), and we’ll be back next year with new reviews every month. More adventures, more discoveries, and definitely more opinions no one asked for, but we’re sharing anyway.
If you’ve been enjoying the journey so far, stick with us, or better yet, jump in now and join us as we head into another year of backlog-busting!
➡️ See you in 2026! let’s keep playing.
➡️ Stay tuned for the first review of the new year!
Thank you again for being part of this adventure.
You make this journey worth it.
