>> hidden action-adventure gems barely ranked, and nobody regretted it

These 52 Action-Adventure games are flying under the radar. Between 3 and 10 people here have ranked each one, 164 players in total, and not one of them filed any of these in the bottom half of their own library.

None of these will ever reach a leaderboard, and that has nothing to do with how good they are. There are just not enough people here who own them.
