Every game scored through your profile. Filter by the kind of hard you are after — the axis that spikes, the assists you need, the ceiling you are willing to hit. These are generic numbers until you calibrate.

2024 · Red Candle Games · ~25h
Sekiro’s deflection on a 2D plane. Chip damage means blocking is not a plan, and every boss is a rhythm you learn on frames rather than a health bar you widdle down.
2021 · Capcom · ~10h
Two hits and you are in your underwear, three and the level restarts, and the game expects a second full loop before it will show you an ending.
2021 · Arc System Works · ~20h
The inputs were made easy so the system could be hard. Roman Cancel is four mechanics behind one button, and every match above the low floors is decided by who used it correctly.
2024 · Bandai Namco Studios · ~30h
The combos are the advertised difficulty and the easy part. The real one is movement — walking, backdashing and sidestepping are the skill, and no mode in the game teaches them.
2015 · Brace Yourself Games · ~15h
It takes the one thing roguelikes normally give you — time to think — and puts it on a metronome.
2018 · Motion Twin · ~40h
Runs are fast and deaths are total. Boss cells stack modifiers until a loadout that felt comfortable dies to two hits, and there is no difficulty setting hiding under them.
2023 · NetherRealm Studios · ~22h
Individually the easiest execution in the genre and the most reading: strings are simple, but every one of them is a decision about whether the assist you also picked is available.
2023 · Capcom · ~25h
The single-player is genuinely welcoming; ranked is a decade of other people’s practice delivered eight frames at a time.
2019 · Capcom · ~15h
You can finish it by mashing. The difficulty lives entirely in the gap between finishing it and playing it, and the game is happy to let you ignore that gap forever.
2018 · Arc System Works · ~20h
Auto-combos hide a genuinely deep three-character team fighter. The gap between mashing the light button and an assist-extended combo is the entire learning curve.
2020 · Toys for Bob · ~16h
Modern checkpoint generosity on the surface, with a completion layer underneath that wants every box and no deaths across a level built to cause both.
