What games do you replay regularly/annually ? (self.gaming)

Inspired by a similar question on reddit:

What games do you replay regularly/annually? (No shame if you skipped a year or two.) I am especially interested in 'comfort' games.

Only rule is, you should have played the game for the first time at least 5 years back.

My list:

Street Fighter 2 in all variations/on all platforms I have access two. I guess I have been playing it regularly for more than 25 years by now. No Street Fighter after the Alpha/3rd Strike ever captured me like this.
Contra / NES This one I play regularly for more than 30 years (at least), to this day my favorite action game and the ultimate benchmark (I played all NES/SNES/Genesis Contras and Operation Galuga, nothing comes close.)
Slay the Spire: Hits 5 years of being released, I played since the early access and wasted too much time on this, still fun and perfect on smartphones
Doom I/II: I cannot tell you what it is, there are obviously better FPS than Doom I/II, but sometimes, if I just want to blow some steam, Doom is the only thing that delivers. (I think I never played trough all episodes of either Doom I or Doom II

Lemmy is really selling me into this one, would this game be good also on the Nintendo Switch?

I barely use my phone for gaming (I barely use anything for gaming actually) and I don't know about the genre that much, but I enjoyed Into The Breach a lot in my phone (although I only "finished it" once) would this be a good title to have in the phone too or better go with the Switch instead?

I have it on all my phones and Steam.

I love the phone version, because StS works perfect/intuitive with touch controls. I also play it on the laptop with a mouse, no problem. I never used a Switch so cannot comment on it at all.

It really boils down to how you like to play it, but right now it is only a few bucks in the Steam sale, and you can return it within 2 hours, so why not try it on Steam and see if it clicks? (WARNING: It clicked for me after more than 2 hours, at the start I found it a little bit bland.)

Thanks for your reply, it would be great if it supported cross save, god that is why I think a Steam Deck would be the perfect handheld for me lol.
