Oh it would have to be Luigi’s mansion 2 HD becauee I love solving puzzles with my children and husband, we may be a bit competitive. Luigi has a nostalgic feeing. Staying up all night to beat the castles and pretending to sleep when my parents would check on us. Weekends we would go to the video store and rent a gaming system and mario games and it was just the best weekends ever. Gaming brought me so much joy as a kid & teenager and I’m so happy the Bros are still bringing smiles to faces of all ages
