What game do you wish Phil would play? - AKA best future TIHYDP material?

The upcoming remaster of Diablo II. It's not exactly a hard game, but it can be pretty mean if you try to run a dumb build (which he will inevitably do unless chat holds his hand). I also wanna see him react to losing all his gear and having to corpse-run upon death.
Not to burst your bubble but if you quit the game after dying and then return your body with all the gear will be dropped right in the camp. at least that was for the original Diablo 2. Would be funny if Bizzard cuts that feature out of the game. Or binds it to a certain difficualty (DSP mode where every boss drops dead at the sight of you)

He actually played this on the Switch, but I don't think he got very far. One of those "I got this game for free so I'm gonna play it in a marathon and just quit when I experience the slightest amount of difficulty" games.

Edit: Someone made a TIHYDP. Only seven minutes long so worth a look. Highlights include getting his shit pushed in by Masked Muscle and getting knocked down by Mr. Sandman and mashing so hard that he hit the home button and quit the game by mistake. Then he couldn't figure out Aaron Ryan's gimmick, lost multiple times, and never played it again, RIP.

The only game I am actually somewhat interested in watching Phil play is Escape from Tarkov. I can only imagine how that would go.
 
The King's Field games. They're pretty much precursors to the Soulsborne games and he would have a much tougher time with them since they're not as streamlined as Demon's Souls and up. The combat, exploration, and controls would most certainly make him quit because of how "archaic" they are.
Ancient City is a bit better in the way of the style of gameplay. Plus, it doesn't look like straight up boiled ass. Still slow and clunky, but you sort of know that going into any of the King's Field games.

The first King's Field (or, at least the first one released in the US) is one of my all-time favorite games. But, there's absolutely no way Phil would make it to the first save point without getting his shit pushed in 40 times. Coupled with how kinda cryptic the huge world is, since most of the friendly NPCs don't really give you straightforward information, there's no way that he'd make it through ANYWHERE without a guide.
 
Love it if someone tricked him into playing "The Witness".

Just to watch his gin brain overheat, meltdown, and him rage.

Shortest tihydp ever.
