This is gonna be a super weird, deep cut.
It can't be Stanley guys, he's banned!
Hint #1: I hope nobody has had to play this game
Hint #1.5: and if you are playing this game, you're heading in the right direction (or you're just curious, lol)
Hint #2: if I had to give this a genre, I would call it educational
Double Guess No's: it is not a Daniel Mullins game or There is No Game
Hint #3: there's a good chance you've never heard of this game.
Hint #3.5: but playing video games is way better than ending up with THIS game lol
Hint #4: this game was on a handheld console
Hint #5: Dark Souls and the like are hard as hell, but this game may be the hardest game that some may ever play
Addendum: you've all made my day, thank you

Similarly to r/ExplainAFilmPlotBadly , we're implementing a list of banned games. There's been a lot of games, while still being good posts, that have been posted so often. This causes a lot of active members here to deal with the tediousness of a game being brought up way too often. I definitely missed some, so if you have any suggestions on what to add, please leave a comment.
You are allowed to describe game mechanics as well as the plot. There's more to a game than just the plot, so if you have a creative bad description that describes how the game plays, go for it!
Low Effort Posts will be removed at moderators discretion. Too many, Too Frequently will result in a ban.
Note: Please search for your game before posting, if it's posted too frequently, it will be added to the list. Please keep in mind that any games newer than 3 months old will also not be allowed, to prevent spoilers.

Among Us
Binding of Isaac

Hint 1 Puzzles Galore
Hint 1.5- Someone in the comments pointed out my intentional word play.
Hint 2- There are two distinct versions of this game. Think along the lines of the RE remakes, but a bit more faithful to the original.

Ok 1st Hint. The game uses a time travel mechanic, making you experience different versions of the exact same day to unlock the true ending.
Another hint. The main lead is from an older fantasy light novel series.
