I really didn't play that many new games this year.

1. Dragon Quest Builders 2
2. Link's Awakening
3. Kingdom Hearts III
4. Cadence of Hyrule
5. Super Mario Maker 2

DQB2 was easily my favorite this year. I just spent the most time playing that I believe. Link's Awakening wasn't new, but it was really fun playing a revamped version of it. It's unfortunate that KHIII didn't get to be my favorite this year. It was just so much weaker than I expected it to be or should have been.

Cadence of Hyrule was just a fun little romp with some great remixes of Zelda tunes. And the only reason SMM2 is so low on the list is because I haven't played it that much. I'm holding off until I'm married so that the two of us can play it together more easily.

Aladdin and The Lion King has been fun to retread, too.
