Favorite Twine game.
3D walkaround game in the weird fiction tradition. Shades of Thomas Ligotti and I Am In Eskew, with more comedy and a psychedelic aesthetic. Good writing.
Alternate history sim where you play as the German Social Democratic Party and try to stop the Nazis' rise to power. Very difficult to win.

Great art and combat system, lots of obscure lore to piece together. Figuring out how everything works and how to win is fun.
Fictional documentary about alien whales presented as a click-to-advance visual novel. About an hour long. Great art. Made me far too emotionally invested in fictional animals.
Never finished it, but it's great for spending a few hours in an oldschool RPG-style world. Recommend playing the Steam version with permadeath off.
The Binding of Isaac with Plants vs. Zombies style gameplay. Need I say more?
Surreal and beautiful.
Gorgeous uncanny ambience, minimal dialogue, apparently abandoned.
Abstract Metroidvania, could never 100% this one but it's still worth looking at.
Nonfiction; autobiographical game about the creator's time in mental health institutions following a suicide attempt. Worth looking at.
Another surreal and beautiful game.
Spent too much of my life on this one, still haven't beaten it.
Meta horror game, really well-crafted.
AI utopia win
