Let's do a quick overview of some Italian games I played.

Tony Tough and the Night of Roasted Moths: mediocre old janky point and click game, probably doesn't work on modern systems.

Zero Comico: mediocre old janky point and click game, and also all referential humor with few bright spots. Untranslated in English.

Il Cane di Terracotta: mediocre old janky point and click game with a somewhat interesting plot. Untranslated in English.

Tsunami 2265: linear garbage corridor shooter, faux-weeb narrative, unfinishable due to bugs, poor compatibility with old and modern systems.

ARENA an Age of Barbarians story: janky 6/10 beat-em-up.

Etrom 20th anniversary edition: the janky schizo dream of some weirdo who wrote a huge saga of books nobody ever bought. CRPG. ULTRA janky but it works on modern systems unlike other games in this list.

Fotonica: by a developer named "Santa Ragione". Single Button endless runner. It is a 6.5/10 game, unique visuals, I remember playing it on a plane when I had no room to move my arms - you can play solely by using the spacebar.

Vampire Survivor and Candy Crush need no introduction.

HONORABLE MENTION:
Super Mario War
amazing freeware platform-battle game with hundreds of stages and characters, only local multiplayer and not updated to modern system because the dev is dead, if I recall correctly. I don't even know if it can be downloaded anymore.

There are also some gay leftist "interactive narrative experiences" from a dev named "la molle industria" from Milan.

All in all, among these lesser known games, Fotonica is the only one that holds up (barely). Maybe I should check out if Santa Ragione did anything else.
Etrom is a masterpiece of schizo autism with a tiny spark of Terry Davis in it.
