  75. Spiritual Successors

  Aug 15, 20261h 50m

  Your favourite game franchise getting a bit forgotten? Have no fear, because someone else will make a legally distinct homage to it. Hell, maybe the original developers will tell their publisher to sod off and then do it themselves somewhere else. However they come about, spiritual successors can be equally as, if not more, special as their original inspiration, and we've got four amazing examples to nominate for the Video Game Hall of Fame. Once you've heard the nominees, head over to @vg_hof on Twitter or @vghof on BlueSky and vote in the poll to decide which one gets inducted. Oh, and send an email to videogamehof@gmail.com
