Cave story the og ... man what a game
To the Moon - gonna have my partner play it here soon so they can cry from it too
Bug Fables
It's a really well done RPG in the spirit of the original Paper Mario games. Charming and fun to play. Got some depth to the build choices using a similar badge system as Paper Mario or even Hollow Knight.

Off the top of my head:
- Against the Storm - I find the loop of those first 30-40 minutes of city building very satisfying.
- Ultimate General Series - I love the land battles, it scratches that gun powder Total War itch.
- Mount & Blade Series - Playing the Viking Conquest expansion while watching or listening to the Last Kingdom (Saxon Stories) might be one of my favourite gaming memories.
- Sea of Stars - Reminds me of Golden Sun. And the soundtrack is just fantastic.
Return of the Obra Dinn. City Game Studio. Until the Last Plane and Full Metal Sergeant (by the same dev).
Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead (ASCII mode) and Neofeud hold a special place in my heart
Shattered pixel dungeon Many hours put into this game
Binding of Isaac. When it finally came out on the switch, I played it more than Breath of the Wild.
I played it to completion. Then Rebirth came out and I played it to completion (barring The Lost, because come on). I only recently picked up Repentance and I'm already another 200 hours in.
❤️, or perhaps I should say ❤️🤍🤍💙💙🖤💔

The Oregon Trail, Pong, Myst, Doom, Worms, Transport Tycoon, Tetris...
Valheim is one of the best, especially with frends
Hotline Miami. Would appreciate recommendations of similiar games.
Inscryption
You are in a weird cabin in the middle of the woods playing a card game with your fate on the line. Some of your cards are talking to you and comment on how you play.
Then things get weird.
For those that like Inscryption, honorable mention for Hand of Fate 1 & 2

I played A Short Hike recently, and I was transported. It's a painterly little adventure in which you walk and glide your way through an archipelago, meeting people and solving small puzzles, mostly around platforming. It's amazingly soothing. First game my wife actually enjoys too, and she's not into games at all.
Does STALKER count? I love the atmosphere of the games.
If not I've sunk a lot of time in Mini Metro
Undertale. I was blown away by the soundtrack and the cleverness of it all. The twist was good too, but I hated the total completion grind a bit. But it is optional.
Crypt of the Necrodancer. Again, blown away by the soundtrack and how confidently it pulled off the idea of a rogue-like rhythm game.
Insurgency: Sandstorm. This might be stretching the concept of "indie" a bit, but its predecessor was definitely an indie game. This is an excellent arcade/realistic FPS shooter.
