Sonny

Sonny was one of those games you'd find on a Flash portal in the late 2000s. It was a straightforward turn-based RPG that ran right in your browser. You didn't need to download anything, which made it easy to pick up during a free period or a slow afternoon.

You control a young man named Sonny who wakes up with no memory. The moment-to-moment play is a series of tactical fights. You select abilities from a menu, targeting enemies to deal damage or applying buffs to yourself. Between battles, you navigate a linear path, talk to characters, and equip new gear to improve your stats. The main objective is to survive the journey and uncover what happened to you. The pacing is deliberate, with each fight requiring some thought about skill cooldowns and enemy weaknesses. It feels like a compact, thoughtful puzzle dressed up as a combat game.
