Mario Kart 7
I would often go to birthday parties with either a Nintendo DS or iPad. With the DS I would connect with my other friends who already own the game and race each other. The same can be said about Mario Kart 8 which I have more fond memories of since the room is usually filled with people to see who would win the race.

Angry Birds
Basically one of the first games I've played when I got my iPad. I remember seeing my father play it on his phone and was immediately hooked. Still remains as one of the best mobile games I've played till this day. Jaako I. / Rovio Entertainment / Chilingo, 2009. Angry Birds, Video game, Rovio Entertainment / SEGA -
Cool Math Games
My first introduction to educational games as well as online games. This was also the year I started using computers at school. Cool Math Games, 1997. Video game, Coolmath.com LLC -
Roblox
2016 was the year Roblox was immensely popular within my year level to the point it was banned afterwards. I didn't have internet during my time at primary school so I would always find time to play it with my friends at school, mostly Pokemon Brick Bronze and Survive the Natural Disasters. My friend even made a YTP (Youtube - Poop) Roblox roleplaying video for the class and I remembered laughing so hard at it. David B. / Erik C., 2004. Roblox, Video game, Roblox Cooperation -
Flappy Golf 2
Same with Roblox, Flappy Golf 2 was widely popular among my year level and we'd occasionally host class-sized races with our iPads. Sometimes students would rage over level-designs or how close they got to the finish line which made the game memorable for me. Noodlecake Studios, 2016, Flappy Golf 2.

Thirteen
I moved houses during late 2019 which resulted me in moving schools for 2020. At the time I was still getting used to the new learning environment and the way I got around making friends was playing Thirteen. Unknown / Vietnamese, Thirteen. Card game -
Left 4 Dead 2
L4D2 was one of the fewer games that could run on my HP laptop. I had many great memories when playing this game as it was not only fun as a co-op shooter but hilariously chaotic when played with friends. And the fact that the game has access to the Steam Workshop makes it infinitely better (or worse). This was also the year where I was more active on Steam as I was saving up for a Gaming laptop.

Lethal Company
I managed to experience real pc gaming for the first time during late 2023 when I finally got my gaming laptop. And it just so happens that Lethal Company was a trending game after a few months I got my laptop. And much like L4D2 it was hilariously funny to play with friends and is probably by far the second game I've sunk the most hours in. Zeekerss, 2023. Lethal Company, Video game, Zeekerss
