Jane's quip about the two guys colaborating to grow one beard absolutely killed me.

Some of the best games can't be played anymore. I'd love to see you do a video on the best Abandonware out there.

Jane mentioned every mini-game inside A Way Out except the most compelling one: Connect Four. I can't tell you how many hours I and many others spent on this one mini-game alone. The fact it's a near perfect 1:1, 3D representation of the real thing is why it's so compelling and nostalgic.

So, the reason Minesweeper was on every Widnows PC was because it was trying to teach people about the right-click left-click use of the mouse. Likewise Solitaire was put on to show that you could execute commands with a double click. I don't really know if it counts as hidden or not, but Arcomage from the Might and Magic games (specifically VII and VIII) was definitely one of the most addictive minigames in videogame history, eventually earning its own PC standalone release.

[@thesledgehammerblog]

Kind of surprised Geometry Wars didn't get mentioned. It was originally a minigame hidden in Project Gotham Racing 2 and went on to become its own entire series.

[@raynitaylor1912]

I was wondering the same. We only had Sonic 2006 and that racing game. I discovered Geometry wars and suddenly everyone in the house started trying to beat each other's high scores. Freaking loved that game.

[@toast47178]

My personal favourite game within a game was in Celeste, it was hidden in the hotel level in a secret room, it was just a mini platformer but I still really enjoyed playing it since it was much easier than the actual platforming I was supposed to be doing

[@youssefelbahtimy]

I loved this game, but the mini game was still very hard.

What about Turbo Turkey Puncher in Doom (2016). May not be the most elaborate in-game game. Or, that you can play the entirety of Doom (1993) and Doom 2 while playing Doom Eternal. These aren't the most well hidden. But these are some of the most influential games in the FPS genre.

My favourite examples of this are the Frog Fractions games: - The first was a browser game that started normally and just got progressively weirder. Fine, good. - The entirety of Frog Fractions 2 is only available by finding it hidden in the game Glittermitten Grove. - They released a "game of the decade" edition of the original Frog Fractions on Steam, but if you buy DLC that gives the frog a hat what you're ACTUALLY buying is step one of the secret method to unlock Frog Fractions 3.

My choice would be from Eastward; within the main game, you can find arcade cabinets for Earth Born, a an old school JRPG style rogue-lite. It's very quick, but you play it over and over to improve on your previous attempt, and in the main game you can use gachapon machines to get more upgrades and consumables. It's a brilliantly executed way to make it feel like a big epic RPG, and you can lose hours to it! (Also they are about to release a DLC which is essentially a third game, a full size Stardew-esque farming sim called Octopia. It looks super cozy, and I need it after the trauma of the main story 😅)

I'm actually quite shocked nothing from Sega is on here. I mean they love putting old arcade games in their new games. Shenmue had an arcade you could visit with full versions of Super Hang-On, OutRun, Space Harrier, etc. & Lost Judgment has it's own arcade that you can visit, although I don't know what's in it. I'm also aware of another game (not by Sega) that includes remakes of the entire TimeSplitters trilogy, though I don't remember the name of the game. Lastly, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War includes something like 20 classic Activision arcade games that you can unlock through the story or multiplayer.

I can think of a number of mini-games within other games that I sunk hours/days into. Certainly in Final Fantasy 7, the Golden Saucer’s mini-games, like Hologram Boxing, were one. In FF X, I spent a couple weeks literally just playing Bliztball. I know Gwent in The Witcher 3 can be quite addicting. Probably the first mini-game I ever got sucked into was back on an old Apple computer game called the Fool’s Errand. It consisted of a series of puzzles, mostly involving solving jumbled images, navigating mazes and the like, but there was one game where you played against an opponent using a set of Tarot Cards and you had to beat them by getting a higher score based on matching them into sets (like The Emperor, The Empress, and The Fool being a set). It was called the Game of Thoth, and I actually had to take the time to figure out all the matches in order to beat the mini-game.

[@michaelday8459]

Not a full game per se, but Crash 3 had a demo for Spyro the Dragon you could play if you input the Konami code at the title screen. (And Spyro had the same feature, where Crash 3 was the playable demo)

I spent so much time on the arcade games in cyberpunk 2077. Especially that stupid roach race. Now that was a fun time

Mine Haunt seems like just lode runner, one of my childhood favorite games.

The old SvR games had the apartment with a pool table, darts, good change of pace.

The Red Alert one is a nod to the game, It came from the desert. An old point and click game about giant ants in the desert....now i wanna go play it.

I remember a game, Contra: Legacy of War on the PSX which I felt was highly underrated. And it had a very fun, Pacman-esque game thrown into the 2nd level.

If you can find someone in GTA Online who owns an arcade then you can actually go inside and play a whole collection of homages to great arcade games of times long gone.

In Timesplitters 2, there was a game called Anaconda on the in-game map/PDA device. Me and my friends spent more time playing that than the actual game. That song has played non-stop in my head ever since.

How about System Shock 2? It had a GameBoy like handheld the GamePig with multiple game cartridges you can find around the game including an 80s RPG style game similar to Ultima that took hours to beat.

Hadn't seen that Tim Curry on the channel in a while. Now we just need You Are Dead to make a comeback.

The hacking minigame in Cyberpunk 2077 honestly I'd play it every day if I had an app for it. Makes my brain happy but I've yet to find similar puzzles anywhere else
