Don’t Starve is exceedingly well designed, from its core gameplay to the aesthetics, music and sound. It’s very challenging, but absolutely full to the brim with content from a great team. Must play.

One of the best games ever made. Dauntingly complex, but mindblowingly considered and exceedingly well executed. It’s hard to overstate the brilliance of Dota 2, a game beyond compare.

High skill-ceiling platformer that starts out easy and steadily ramps up. Controls are a bit slippery which can take some getting used to, but will be enjoyed by fans of competitive speed platforming.

This in my opinion is the best Far Cry. Best world, best characters (even if the protagonist and his crew are a bit cringey), best moments, best plot.

The first and likely last masterpiece by Phil Fish. The amount of attention to detail and care that went into this game is crazy. A simple mechanic well explored and executed - a must play.

An innovative and unique take on turnbased strategy with tonnes of replayability. Great soundtrack and decent narrative.

A classic modern and hugely influential roguelike which will make you love/hate RNG like almost no other. Strikes a great balance of simplicity and underlying complexity. Almost certainly a classic.

Short, slow and memorable; Gone Home is somewhat overhyped, but important and well designed regardless. Best to go in absolutely blind.
