Hi again everyone!
Since I noticed you enjoyed my last train full of point-and-click games, I've decided to create another one, but this time there'll be mainly leftovers I have from the last humble bundles.
Towards the end, you'll find 4 "surprises": they're games that really impressed me recently and I enjoyed playing (or are at the top of my wishlist). I'm more than glad to give the opportunity to try them to you, hoping you'll like them!
The train is for level 3+ and it's protected with Sgtools. It will last six days.

But before I write the link to the train, I have a question for you: can you tell me which is your "hidden gem", the game you enjoyed the most in the last period but that's very underrated in your opinion? It doesn't matter if it's a cheap indie game or an AAA+ title... I'll surely take note of most of them and add them to my wishlist, like I did last time!

Here we go, ENJOY THE RIDE!

Thanks and Bump! It's not underrated, it was even in humble monthly, but playing in the Train Valley was for fun me.

Amazing ride, thanks a lot.
Valley was the most amazing game recently but not really underrated I think. I have not finished it yet but if it stays like this it will become my favourite game ever.

Thank you for the beautiful train, Ernesttico! Since I'm mostly playing games I won here since the beginning of this year, there aren't many new discoveries. But Windscape is beautilfu RPG, though it's still EA and therefore comes with a few bugs. Also I really enjoyed Armello, but that's not so hidden.

Thanks for the great train!

I really enjoyed this game. It certainly isn't underrated, but I don't think it gets enough attention. Dust: An Elysian Tail

Thanks for the wonderful train! For hidden gems, Rise to Ruins will be my go to game. IMO it is really an underrated game, its an RTS and TD type game which can seriously provide 100's of hours of nonstop enjoyment into the game. Also did i mention even though its in early access, the developer (yes its a 1 man team) is super active in pushing updates regularly, listening to the community and even have a discord / twitch channel to interact / develop the game with the players to make it the best game ever :D

Oh, a pixel-art strategic game... Fantastic! I've added it to my wishlist and I'll give it a further look in the next days. Thanks for the suggestion!

Awesome train! Have a bump :)

As for hidden gems, hmm, I haven't played anything that really blew me away lately, but I did see Ys Seven has finally come to steam and I really enjoyed that on PSP a few years ago. It originally came out during the very end the systems life, so not too many people played it afaik, and now that it's on Steam seems most people are still ignoring it. Ys Origin on Steam is also good (though way more people have played that one so I wouldn't really call it a 'hidden' gem). Check them out :)

One other title you might get a kick out of is Beatbuddy, which is a rather unique game. Its kind of a free roam 2D side scroller where you move in bursts based on the beat of the background music. I really liked how the earlier areas in the game had the background music made entirely by the enemies themselves, with each one essentially representing a different instrument. Later levels they got lazy and used music that wasn't done by the enemies, and the ending kind of sucked, but it was still a fun and interesting game I'd recommend if you can get it really cheap (way more people have it available for trade then want it, so I'd recommend getting it that way).

Beatbuddy was a very pleasant surprise.

Ys Seven was already in my Steam discovery queue and I thought I had to look some more gameplay. Instead, I didn't know anything about Beatbuddy and it seems great. Thanks for the suggestions!

If nothing else, if you liked 90s jrpgs you should definitely check out Ys Seven OST, since many of is songs are similar to ones you may have heard during that era: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VThVxJ6U5Z8&list=PLzFTGYa_evXjqdsmbv0_9h41_PrpI8FRh&index=10

Nowadays I don't play many jrpgs, but I used to play a lot of them during the 90's...so thanks for the song, it brought back a lot of good memories.

Thank you very much for the great train! Recently I really enjoyed The Flame In The Flood, I usually don't like survival gerne but that game is really nice especially the soundtrack. The Aquatic Adventure of the Last Human is pretty good to, great atmosphere though pretty hard. Poly Bridge is another nice game I won, though it's a bit selective taste because it's basically just building bridges but it can be really fun.

Thanks for the tips! The Aquatic Adventure of the Last Human looks very promising... I hope it's not too frustrating.
