I biasedly say game 49: picking a Pokémon and battling with it.

MG 53: Fire Emblem's seal system was simple and interesting

 

[scav]

Game 84, Hydra mechanics. Something simple that be re-used in any game without creating conflicts with other mechanics

10% btw

Nominating the save lynch from Kingdom Hearts if that counts (would love to use it again lol) and Gry's stand mechanic in Jojo part 5.

And I'm happy that the hydra mechanic is used here, so I'll support that

Very beginner-friendly too. I'll support that one.

Setting aside panda games () I liked Gry's Jojo pt 5 game. Spice girl ftw

 

[Crescent Jinx]

Lord of the Rings
Overlord
RWBY
One Punch Man

Among the non mentioned ones wanna point out those:

1. MG68 WoW - Rather simple and straightforward system but very interesting with the couple gameplay options it provided for all teams
2. MG69 Overlord - „I put all my skill points in defense!“ lol I don‘t think the system ended up mattering much but I loved the placebo effect of skilling Defense and feeling a thin layer of protection.

I liked many of the mechanics we had in these games, just that I often feel they could be improved more than what was in the game. Lighter mechanics are harder to get wrong.

[GrySun]

Disgusting, but Three Houses MG will come soon enough, either by me or Lambu.

 

[Copy Panda]

You gotta admit she's only few aesthetic choices away from being a Rin-chan
