I recently played Outer Wilds for the first time last week. Games like this, I always worry they're overhyped, but it was great.
There's a lot of good games on this list, plus ones I've never played before, I should probably check some of them out.
Ignore the pre-release hype (I mean hype before anyone gets to try the game, early access hype is good). If the game is hyped after people get to play it, then I find it's safer to trust, though personal preferences can still make it miss the mark.
