Good singleplayer games without any story? (lemmy.zip)

Players usually want a good story in their games. I can enjoy a good story too, but sometimes I just want to get going and do stuff without listening to several minutes of dialog in-between action.

Do you know any games where there's no story (or very minimal/skippable one), and the game mechanics alone carry the game?

EDIT: Thank you all for the suggestions. There are some that I've never heard of and look very interesting. Will definitely pick some of them up.

I keep hearing about this one. I need to try it one day.

It's $5 and brilliant 40+ hour game with excellent mechanical complexity

I just discovered this game this past weekend and it is sooo good. I wanted a fairly mindless "kill a bunch of guys and keep my hand busy" type of game, and that's exactly what I got.
