Hall of Fame
The titles here have one thing in common: they are still in lobbies years after release, and newer games are still described by reference to them. That is a measure of influence rather than of quality, and it is the only claim this page makes.
Each of these releases either established a mechanic or set the template for a theme. Several have been reissued more than once by the studio that made them, which is itself evidence that the original worked.
How a title earns a place
- It is still distributed. The game is present in current lobbies, not only in a studio’s archive.
- It started something. The mechanic or the presentation was copied, by the same studio or by its competitors.
- It is used as a reference point. Newer releases are explained by comparing them to it.
- It has outlasted its own sequels. Later versions exist, and the original is still searched for by name.
Payout claims play no part in the selection. Nothing on this page should be read as a recommendation to play for money.
