Tunic - at face value it is a gorgeous, brilliantly fun soulslike. Beneath the surface, however, it becomes apparent that the "souls like" part of it is a facade for the true game. Probably one of the single greatest gaming experiences of all time.

The Witcher 3 - it often goes on sale for like... ยฃ3 or something ridiculous, and its a standout example of an excellent open world RPG.

Celeste - possibly the single greatest (2d) platforming game ever made, with a soundtrack that is truly unforgettable by the great Lena Raine. Also if you play it you'll find out you're trans*

I will always say TUNIC in these threads. One of the best gaming experiences of my life.

I'm a similar vein, Outer Wilds is also excellent.

There definitely different experiences. But, they are both a "go in blind and just explore" kind of game.

Yeah I adore Outer Wilds and I think the storytelling experience of it is gorgeous - one of my all time favourites. I settled on not mentioning it here because I think its a tad less accessible due to the ship movement.
