Welcome to WatchMojo and today we'll be counting down our picks for the top 10 video games designed to frustrate you. For this list, we'll be going over the games whose design elements are intentionally difficult or annoying. We won't be including any flash games or older games whose difficulty was due to when they were made (like bad controls or hardware limitations). Our countdown includes "Super Meat Boy" (2010), "Returnal" (2021), the "Souls" franchise (2009-), and more!

  • #10: "Returnal" (2021)
  • #9: "Ninja Gaiden II" (2008)
  • #8: "Hotline Miami" (2012)
  • #7: "VVVVVV" (2010)
  • #6: "Super Meat Boy" (2010)
  • #5: "Ghosts 'n Goblins" Franchise (1985-)
  • #4: "Battle Kid: Fortress of Peril" (2010)
  • #3: "Souls" Franchise (2009-)
  • #2: "Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy" (2017)
