Croc! Had to dig it up to verify: Croc was on the Interactive CD Sampler Disc Volume 4 that came with the Playstation (depending on when it was packaged) along with Armored Core, Parappa the Rapper, and some real cousin games like Steel Reign and Treasures of the Deep.
As far as early 3D platformers go, I think it holds up. Cute aesthetic, decent music, nice variety of puzzles and enemies. Controls feel dated and the sequel has a truly heinous camera but hey that's the 90s.

Geist goes hard though, underrated game, hope it gets a remaster someday
Actually on that note, I think that's what we need more of in general
Revivals/remakes/remasters of cousin games. Games that people were tangentially aware of but didn't really delve into until their late 20's/early 30's and realized they were actually super unique and interesting rather than the games everyone already knows and has already played

Tony Hawks Pro Skater - Underground 1 & THPS 12 are absolutely not cousin games, they're all far too good and iconic
Underground 2, American Wasteland, Project 8 & even THPS HD are perfect cousin games, despite being still really good games mechanically (minus THPS HD, even though it's alright, the vibes are just so extraordinarily bizarre
THPS 5 isn't a cousin game, though, that one just sucks

Oh I get it! when you’re comparing game collections and there are those outliers. Ya you have those well known games everyone has, or you have that handful of gems everyone sort of knows. Then you have to outliers! Some strange title you’ve never heard of, or maybe heard of but never considered even renting. Usually filler titles in a lot when looking around EBay for a deal.
Ya, cousin game

The cousin game that has stuck in my memory ever since I tried it at a friend’s house when I was 6 years old was 40 winks on the ps1. It was the first game I ever played on PlayStation instead of Xbox, and I was very confused as to why the controller was so different

When I was a kid, my cousin was a teenager and could easily pirate computer games. He had cases full of 3. 5 floppy discs, so I was constantly borrowing games from him. He also chased me with a machete and made me rub his hairy back. Are those cousin games, too

Winback was the premier cousin game for me, and hearing it here woke me up like a sleeper agent (friend of the family, but might as well have been a cousin. I owned THUG2 so I guess the role of cousin is situational/transferable lol

I’m not gonna lie, even though they are Nintendo games and great games, I get the same feeling for the first Pikmin game on Gamecube. I had zero idea how that game got in my house as a kid and always felt a bit strange while playing it

Sarge's Heroes was in fact a game my cousin owned, and I liked it well enough that I eventually acquired my own copy. Does that mean it's still a cousin game Am I now a cousin Is Sarge's Heroes 2 also a cousin game

Everytime Pat shows up it feels like he reaches into my brain and activates a lost region within it and suddenly I feel like I'm at the end of 2001 as endless memories and ideas suddenly are perfectly laid out before me.

One of my core memories as a kid is going to my (strange smelling) cousins house and seeing a bunch of weird little monster figures, then becoming obsessed over Skylanders for years to come

I had a bunch of esoteric games I took chances on as a kid. I tried to get friends into fighters, played weird RPGs, and wasn't a huge fan of first party titles. I was definitely the cousin.

You are 100% on to something here because it does seem that either an acquaintance or somewhat friend or my cousin had these games and I never owned them and of course I own the AAA games

My cousin had a game called Revolution X, where the rock band Aerosmith leads you in a revolution against a dystopian government. Its a rail shooter where you shoot CDs at people.
