Welcome to Blockfort

This website is my way of highlighting everything I love about video games. Great games, memorable characters, and iconic moments will all be recognized in various Top Ten lists. Video games are fun, and I aim to have fun with the tropes that define them. 577 lists have been created thus far and more are being added on a regular basis. Check back often to see new lists!
