Main reason games like Deathloop, Outer Wilds, Gunfire Reborn, Slay the Spire, Vampire Survivors, etc. got their hooks in me so deep - something I can sit down, fire up to play solo (it's tough as hell to get friends together to squad in games when all your friends are also 35 and busy), knock out a 30min - 2hr play session, and put down without feeling like I'm in the middle of something.
Love how many games there are these days who play like this. Seems like rogue-lites do it best, but it's nice to see other genres making it work, too.
If you like Outer Wilds check out The Forgotten City. It's somewhat similar in terms of the gameplay loop and is also good for short or long sessions.
