Now THIS, is peak gaming. I consider "JERRY." a 10/10 because it embraces simplicity and turns it into something profound. The sole mechanic, tapping space or the screen to die, becomes a statement on gaming itself, distilling the experience to its most basic form. This minimalism invites deep reflection on why we interact with games and what meaning we derive from them. Surprisingly, "JERRY." taps into existential questions about purpose and choice, with the act of self-destruction sparking thoughts about mortality and futility. By subverting traditional gaming expectations of achievement and survival, the game creates an emotional and thought-provoking experience that resonates with players far beyond its basic premise.
