The backlog speaks

Games worth your hoard

270 games owned, 57 played last year — these are the ones I keep coming back to, and where I actually buy them.

Heads up: the store links on this page are affiliate links through my G2A creator account. If you buy through them, I earn a small commission at no extra cost to you — it's one of the ways this whole operation stays funded.

Dlonem's video about buying on G2A New to G2A? It's a key marketplace, and buying smart there is a skill. I've made videos on how to do it safely — watch before you shop if it's your first time.
Crusader Kings III key art
Grand strategy

Crusader Kings III

The game I've modded for years and played for over a quarter of my Steam time. Dynasty drama, scheming, and — with a certain mod installed — vampires.

Strategy trilogy

Total War: Warhammer I–III

Never pay full price for the trilogy — each entry routinely drops under $15, so all three together can cost less than one at retail. The definitive fantasy strategy sandbox.

Cozy

Disney Dreamlight Valley

I was recently gifted this at a serious discount off retail, and it earned its spot fast. Cozy life-sim energy with surprising depth — a perfect wind-down game.

Co-op chaos

Helldivers 2

What game nights are made of. Managed democracy doesn't spread itself — grab three friends and deliver it personally. A regular in my videos.

The rotation

Dota 2 & the free rotation

Not everything on game night costs money — Dota 2 has been ancient-defense comfort food for years, and it's free. When the rotation does need a key, G2A's daily deals are where I look first.
