LocoRoco is a 2006 platformer for the PSP from what would eventually become Sony’s Japan Studio. Players control the planet itself, using the shoulder buttons to rotate the world around and help the LocoRocos navigate through various levels. The squishy creatures can group up and break apart as needed to go through various obstacles.

SaGa: Emerald Beyond is a 2024 RPG from Square Enix, one of the latest installments in the very niche but long-running SaGa series. Choose one of five story paths, make choices during the run, then do it again or pick another protagonist. Every choice has an effect, and every playthrough is unique based on the choices made.
