Basically what the title says. I’ve only played two games like this so far (Silent Hill 2 and OMORI) and am looking for more.

Could be games, ROM hacks, mods of existing games, etc.

EDIT: So many great suggestions! Getting a bit overwhelmed by how many there are, so I’m going to need to find a way to put this in some kind of list with an order to play the games in. By all means, keep 'em coming, though!

I beat Outer Wilds right after my first kid was born and it absolutely tore me to pieces.

Came to say Outer Wilds. That end moved me.

I don’t think I stopped thinking about that game for a solid three months after I beat it.

100%. Even in the general ‘middle’, every now and then, a few simple lines of text would just punch me right in the gut

Removed it since it could be seen as a spoiler

Ahhh and the music too

BTW I would mark that as a spoiler, I know I wouldn’t want to know even that there’s something worth mentioning like this there

Ctrl-F Outer Wilds

Ah yes, thank you for beating me to it. It’s been years since I first played and I still think about it almost every day.

This, entirely. It’s just one of those games that I can’t get past. Truly a solid recommendation

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
