If you liked the first game, you'll like this as well. If you like heartwarming visual novels, you also can't go wrong here. I highly recommend playing Arcade Spirits just because it's excellent, but if you want to just dive in head first there's really only a few Easter eggs you'll be missing out on. Nothing that affects the plot really.

This is very short, but also very well-made. It's effectively an extra side level for HL2, where you play a resistance member caught out in the middle of the 7-hour war.

This is a charming little indie visual novel where you play a guy trying to make a literal mom & pop arcade into a success. All the characters are delightful in their own way so there's something here for everyone, regardless of how you want to approach the game--your guy can be flighty, deadpan, competitive, hopelessly romantic or any combination thereof.

Oh god. Why did I buy this?

A simple but fun twist on endless runners. It's a good game to relax and unwind with.
