    Depends entirely on how you interpret the question. It could be read as “What’s a recent game you’ve tried…” (as in, a recently released game that you tried), as you’ve done, or “What’s a recent game you’ve tried…” (as in, a game you’ve tried recently) as the person you’re responding to did.

    I think either interpretation is fine since the title doesn’t actually clarify either way.

      can it correctly be interpreted both ways grammatically though? I think only the former is actually correct.

      idk. not my area. but I think they have a point, recent can only refer to the game itself, not when you played it
