The Most Confusing Video Games 2022
- A new Uswitch study has analysed Google search data to reveal the most confusing video games of the year
- Elden Ring tops the list with nearly 180,000 searches for tips and guidance on how to play the game since its release in Feb 2022
- Metroid Dread is the second-most confusing video game, followed by Resident Evil Village in third
- Assasin’s Creed Valhalla and Far Cry 6 complete the top five video games that have players turning to Google for help
New research by the broadband experts at Uswitch has revealed that Elden Ring is the most confusing video game of the year.
By analysing Google search data for 150 of this year’s most popular video games, the broadband experts looked at search volumes for: [game] + explained, [game] + tips, [game] + walkthrough, how to play + [game] to discover which video games have caused the most confusion since their release. Elden Ring came out on top with nearly 180,000 searches from players looking for tips and explanations on how to play the game. The epic fantasy game, written by George R. R. Marin and directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki, was released in February 2022 and scored a perfect 10 out of 10 on IGN following a lot of high expectations. Although the game has been well-received by the gaming community, it is definitely not a game for beginners who could become easily perplexed.
Metroid Dread is second on the list of most confusing video games with nearly 54,000 Google searches from gamers looking for advice on how to play the game. Produced by Nintendo, the action-adventure game has been noted as “notoriously hard” by gaming journalists at Polygon, who noticed that game has enormous spikes in difficulty with very little help on offer throughout the process, which explains why so many are getting confused and turning to Google for assistance.
Resident Evil Village is third on the list with 44,760 annual Google searches from confused gamers. The survival horror video game has a 10 out of 10 rating on Steam and 8 out of 10 on IGN which highlights how loved it is; however, that hasn’t stopped the gaming community from taking to Reddit to express how challenging the ‘standard’ difficulty mode is and suggesting that less experienced gamers opt for ‘casual’ mode to avoid confusion.
The top five list is made up of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla which is named the fourth most confusing video game with 33,960 searches, closely followed by Far Cry 6 with 31,920 Google searches. Fall Guys is sixth on the list and Fortnite follows in seventh.
Most of the games to feature in the top 10 list are action, adventure or survival games, apart from Fall Guys which is sixth on the list and Luigi’s Mansion 3 which has a recommended playing age of seven years old and above. It is the eighth most confusing game of the year with 24,360 searches for tips, explanations and game walkthroughs. Following the Nintendo game is Horizon Zero Dawn (ninth on the list) and Deathloop completes the top 10. Other child-friendly games that are causing confusion are Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga, Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing New Horizons and Pokemon Legends Arceus.

The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) has expressed full support for the ongoing World Surf League (WSL) Challenger Series in Baler, Aurora for boosting sports tourism and the country’s position as a premier surfing destination.
PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco said the agency is proud to sponsor a global league that brings elite surfers to iconic waves across the world, including celebrated Philippine surfing sites such as Siargao, La Union and Baler.
“We proudly support the WSL Series, which showcases emerging surfing talents and shines a global spotlight on the world-class waves of the Philippines,” Mr. Tengco said of the event, which started on November 17 and will run until November 23.
“This competition provides Filipino surfers with a bigger stage to showcase their skills while helping promote sustainable coastal development in surf communities,” he added.
“We look forward to a successful WSL Challenger Series and to seeing more Filipino surfers make a mark on the international surfing scene,” Mr. Tengco said.
The WSL is the leading global platform for professional surfing, staging top-tier competitions throughout the year in celebrated surf destinations.
The Challenger Series serves as the crucial qualifying arena for athletes aspiring to join the elite WSL Championship Tour, attracting a field of seasoned professionals and rising stars from across the world.
The Philippines has long been part of the WSL map, with Siargao hosting league-sanctioned events for the past 29 years.
The country’s consistent presence in the global surfing event has helped elevate local shores – particularly Cloud 9 in Siargao, as well as surf hubs in Baler and La Union –into key destinations for both athletes and adventure tourists.
