Velocity 2x - extremely fun fast paced 2d space shooter & platformer. Is extremely rewarding when you start to get to good at it and learn the levels.
-
Muramasa Demon Blade/Rebirth - also really fun and satisfying skill-based combat game but with some light RPG elements. What I really love about it though is the sheer vibes. Set in feudal Japan with gorgeous artwork and sound/music. Great fun and a piece of art.

Absolute Balderdash. It's the most replayable and funniest board game with a crowd. I've hurt my ribs many times through laughing too much.
Finally, something I understand in this list.
For me personally, any game in the Super Smash Bros series.
They've always been a go-to when hanging out with friends, in their time.
Melee still has a following. Nobody likes brawl because of tripping (among other things i'm sure), but I learned how to mod brawl and added so many custom stages and character skins. Sm4sh was ok, and Ultimate is so complete.
Yeah it's Nintendo and "it's always moral to pirate Nintendo games" and there's plenty to complain about their online services but I've played smash so much that every time a new game comes out immediately a must-buy.
Voices of the Void.
Oh, wait. It's free right now??? Go get it!
I have been playing a lot of Arma reforger and rimworld lately and I love both but they definitely won't meet everyones taste.
- Factorio
- Return to obra dinn
- Skyrim
- Chrono Trigger (must pirate because SNES is best)
- Papers please
- Enter the Gungeon
- Cuphead
- Slay the Spire
- Subroutine
- Medieval 2 Total War (bit aged with mods to fix)
- Warcraft 3 and/or StarCraft 2 (for the campaign)
Warcraft 2 and Starcraft 1!

You can't buy them anymore. They're all got delisted from every store by the publisher.
Rain World hands down, such an interesting and challenging game.
Which kind of games. From an Rpg perspective,
-
Alice is missing a silent Rpg, which is played using instant messenging. That one is absolutely crazy, with a lot of potential for bleed
-
Blade in the dark, which is basically the latest revolution in Rpg. And led to the FITD games, it kept the yes but partial success from previous generations of PBTA games, use long term actions (aka clock) for everything (same mechanics for opening a lock, seducing the princess or fighting a guard), and has this downtime phase which is more than just spending XP. It also has flashback mechanic letting you jump to the action and plan latter

Mork Borg, the system is fine but banal. However, the weird aesthetic makes it a must have in a rpg lover collection
Forged in the Dark games are great; I haven't gotten to play Blades, but I've run some Scum & Villainy (which is a space opera setting: think Star Wars meets Firefly), and it's probably my new favorite system
MorkBorg is fun for the aesthetic, but the combat always seems to just drag on, with round after round of damage getting blocked by armor. On the up side, the rounds go really quick.
