This is a different kind of episode for us, because instead of talking about one game in depth, we're looking back at all of the non-Souls games we've covered for the show and asking ourselves two questions: Would we recommend you play these today? And what element, mechanical or aesthetic, would you like to see someone take from each game and use elsewhere?

This first part goes through all of the games we talked about on the original run of the show, so:

• King's Field IV: The Ancient City

• 3D Dot Game Heroes

• Shovel Knight

• Lords of the Fallen

• Shadow Tower

• Shadow Tower: Abyss

• Titan Souls

• Momodora 4: Reverie Under the Moonlight

• Hyper Light Drifter

• Salt & Sanctuary

• DarkMaus

• Let It Die

• Nioh

• Hollow Knight
