Top games on IFDB for 2025 before IFComp

IFComp games usually dominate the awards and IFDB in a given year, so it can be easy for other games to be overlooked. Before IFComp starts, I wanted to record a list of the most popular games on IFDB so far this year (I had trouble formatting this, so apologies if it’s weird!)

If you’re looking for something to check out before the comp, these might be fun!

In 2025, that would be BlueScreenCrisis, rating deviation of 2 with 2 ratings (1 5-star rating, 1 1-star rating).

The one with more than 2 ratings is Last Audit of the Damned with a rating deviation of 1.50 with 5 ratings. (1 5-star, 1 3-star, 1 2-star, 2 1-star).

You’ll be happy(?) to know it is your very own Portrait with Wolf (13 ratings, deviation 1.2).
