    The original XCOM has some of the best pixel art in any game, imo. Original resolution: 320x200. Somehow it is still visually detailed and clear. It has one of my favorite things in a game ever where the tiles you see are partially obscured by tiles you can’t. Specifically, the tiles you can’t see aren’t fully blocked so silhouettes can still be visible. If you’re good you can use it to ID aliens lurking in the shadows and sometimes it’s literally like 3 pixels of difference for you to pick up on it
