Overview
Description

Pocky & Rocky 2 is a classic top-down scrolling shooter that blends action, adventure, and lighthearted comedy with spooky Japanese folklore elements. Players take control of the titular shrine maiden Pocky and her raccoon companion Rocky as they battle hordes of mythical monsters and demons. Building upon the cooperative gameplay of its predecessor, this sequel introduces new partner characters, improved combat mechanics, and special combination attacks. Whether playing solo or teaming up with a friend in cooperative mode, players must navigate charming pixel-art stages and defeat challenging bosses.

Counter-Strike 2 is the free-to-play successor to CS:GO, a tactical 5v5 shooter defined by precise gunplay, economy management, and deep competitive play built on the new Source 2 engine.

So much fun

Counter-Strike 2 has been my go-to lately. Pure skill-based gunplay. One gripe: steep learning curve. Would recommend.
