Yoku's Island Express - great soundtrack. And you play a cheerful dung beetle :)

PS: it's also on Game Pass for Xbox and PC!

My top picks:
1. Slime Rancher
2. A Hat in Time

These are the only two games where I was grinning like an idiot every time I was playing them.

Forza Horizon 4 and Sea of Thieves. :)

Be free and head off towards the horizon.

OP, Tearaway Unfolded on PS4. It is such a happy and joyful game, and it's always like $20 or $10.

No one's mentioned A Boy and his Blob yet, so that. It includes a button specifically to hug your blob companion.

VIVA PINATA.

If you have an xbox one X it's 4K (or 1080p). If you've got a PC the first one requires a disk and some finagling but it also runs at 1080p60 and is a lot of fun.

It's a gorgeous charming addictive game, and it's just, so happy. It's joy on a disk. If you have gamepass it's on that, or pretty cheap if not. It's in rare replay too.

First game tutorializes better. Second game has more to it. It's kind of a 1.5 edition rather than a full sequel.


lmao didn't even see this.

Nobody's mentioned A Short Hike and I'm disappointed in all of you forever.

It's the most wonderful wandering afternoon on an island ever. It's also hilarious and only takes a few hours to get through.

Honorable mentions to the Frog Detective games.

I realise I'm late, but if you come back for something else consider The Touryst.

Wandersong
Super Mario 3D World
Yoshi's Crafted World

These are some of the most jolly games I've played in recent memory.

Lisa the Joyful.
I mean, c'mon, joyful is in the name.

(The game is neither joyful nor is it on consoles. I just couldn't help myself.)
