What are some lesser known games that either
A. You hoped would be a hidden gem but turned out disappointed by
or
B. Thought qualified as a hidden gem upon initial play but when later revisited you realized not really?
Of course, this is all opinions because we all won't agree, but I'm curious to hear everyone's choices.
For me, falling under category A, Nosferatu. Really had high hopes for this one and turned out so disappointed. Insane difficulty and annoying control prevented this from being the hit it could have been.
Falling under category B, Prehistorik Man. Loved it when I first played it for 15-20 minutes in 2006. Recently replayed it more thoroughly last month and while it isn't terrible by any means, I find it disappointingly slightly above average at best. For years I always wondered whenever people talk about hidden gems why this game rarely comes up. After revisiting it I can see why. A middle of the road type platformer.
What are some of your nominations?
