For: I wanna be the 20trigger
I wanna be the 20trigger is the sequel to Cyber's I wanna be the 16 trigger which also has that one first screen layout that at first appeared in I wanna be the T and then was included in I wanna be the 16trigger and 針置くだけで作れるからアイワナちょろい. The game consists of two trigger-centric needle screens that turned out to be pretty hard to me, especially the second screen that represents a pretty cool idea of unlocking every room on the screen by activating triggers in them that also move spikes in the room and completely change jumps after activating them to eventually get to the warp. The only one BGM in the game for some reason includes two soundtracks and the first one playing is SAVANT's Champagne that strangely fits too well for this game lol. Background image adds the vibe too. Also after clearing the game you gain acces to a "cheat code" for music2. You could've known that after reading the game's readme file that I will translate below:
Can be used for I wanna be the MUSIC II by clearing the game
You will receive a serial code.
By entering this serial code on MUSICⅡ, you can receive benefits on MUSICⅡ.
It is strictly prohibited to share or disclose the serial code to others.
There will be a warning in-game, so you can just broadcast it normally.

Absolute banger avoidance from start to finish. It has a couple choke points, but the balancing is still very good. This avoidance has lots of creative attacks, and it gets very climactic towards the end. Highly recommended.

Serial Experiments Kid is another wonderful adventure game by Dagger - who at this point has earned a place amongst my favorite makers. It has all his hallmarks, such as thwomp traps, zoomed in stages, and a fish boss. However, it doesn't feel like tired repetition of ideas; rather managing to be unique and fun to play while still maintaining that familiarity.
The structure of the game is centered around exploring various rooms while trying to escape a mysterious facility, all the while drifting off into super realistic dreams (the actual stages of the game). This exploration part of the game feels like a miniature version of Cardinal House, another of my favorite fangames. The creepy atmosphere adds a ton to the experience, and is a great way to break up the otherwise colorful stages. I really appreciate the English mod existing, as I really liked the story that was tied into the game. Enough so that I wish the game went on longer, as I felt the story could've been explored deeper!
The stages themselves are pretty classic adventure fare, with a wide variety of obstacles, enemies, and items you can collect. I appreciate the use of exploration even here, it was really fun to explore stages looking for an ability or switch that might open up another area. There were a nice variety of obstacles, from cycle based stuff, to traps, to enemies, to puzzles, to probably some other stuff I'm forgetting. The game constantly feels fresh, without an overreliance on any one type of gameplay.
I want to specifically call out the traps in this game, which are utterly fantastic, legitimately some of the best I've ever seen. It constantly felt like Dagger was pulling soul reads on me, knowing exactly what I'd expect to happen and making the opposite thing happen. This game made me react out loud some of the most I've ever done to a fangame (the noise I made after one trap made my partner come check on me). If you've played a few of his other works, you probably know exactly what objects will make an appearance. Despite this, they still manage to be unique and hilarious. I really don't know how he does it.
The bosses are quite cool, each one integrating the abilities you got during that stage in interesting ways. The first is a little boring, as you don't have much at that point, but from that point on I enjoyed figuring out which items I had to switch between to dodge attacks and damage the boss. I found the fish boss to be the most difficult by a good margin, but I suspect this was just a personal thing, certainly not a mar on the game.
Overall, an absolutely phenomenal adventure game. It puts the focus on exploration and discovery, making it really feel like a proper adventure. It pretty much ticks all the boxes for what I like to see in an adventure game. An easy recommendation, definitely one you should check out at some point if you like adventure games.

This game is very entertaning. It has many funny ideas, and the narrative gives this game more charm. However some of the later rooms contain very awkward needle gameplay, and it can be frustrating to play with the janky rng gimmicks. The final room really pops off hard though.
