What game of the 2020s do you think that will top the "best games of the decade" lists in 2030? (fedia.io)

According to MetaCritic, Zelda: Breath of the Wild topped "best games of the 2010s" lists, appearing in 1st place in 17 of these lists. In 2030, what game of the 2020s decade will appear on the 1st place in most of these lists? (It should be noted that we are in the middle of the 2020s decade so this may change as new games get released).

I just hate its relentless sudden-death format, which kills you from a single misclick. At least Slay the Spire gave you HP and was far more forgiving.

As someone who played each demo version, I was really expecting a different pace in the final game. I was surprised to find that the release version was just as feast-or-famine. Most runs only get a few extra cards or extra stamps unless you get jokers that seriously accelerate the rate. I was expecting the game to have more of an RPG curve to it where I would have more time to shift toward a suit and preferred card quantity.

I love Balatro, but this is definitely recency bias. It's going to mostly fade from mainstream popularity and acclaim long before then.

I've cleared 6 new decks now that it's available on phone. So stupidly fun
