Bottom 1024 — Week 23 — Poll 15

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round Lower Bracket!

Each game in the lower bracket is still seeded based on its performance in the two opening rounds of pools! Every game in the lower bracket has already been defeated by another game in a 1-on-1 poll to get to this point. This is their chance to claw their way back into the main event... but the stakes are high. The games that lose in these polls are out of the tournament for good! The games that survive will face the next crop of upper bracket losers in the next round.

Polls are updated weekly, typically on Saturday... or Sunday or Monday. Check back throughout the week to make sure you don't miss a vote!

HOW TO VOTE

This is easy. You only get one vote per poll. The game with the most votes wins. In the event of a tie, the higher seed advances, so don't get complacent!

Golden Sun has a great reputation, it's definitely one I'd like to play someday.

Iji is a fantastic game and I'd recommend it to anyone. Hard to believe it came out so long ago - as a freeware game, it definitely slides under the radar compared to many commercial games since you don't see it on any storefronts. Although pacifist routes can feel unnatural, this one's pretty well written. On one level it doesn't change the game, but on another level it kind of reframes what's going on.
