Now, I am playing a lot of Noita (but I feel the controls are getting in the way, especially on lower levels...) and Transport Fever 2 (I do love me some Transport Tycoon nostalgia :P ).

  • Phoenix Point
  • Subnautica
  • Talos Principle
  • Disco Elysium ...

There are more that made an impression on me, I remember playing them a few times, but do not want to play them again (Do you know that feeling? :D ), eg. Eclipse (the galaxy-wide battle 4X preparation-takes-as-long-as-playing-and-playing-takes-a-whole-day strategy), Agricola, Mice and Mystics...
