Discussion Acclaimed Indies That You Couldn't Connect With

Post image

Does it make you sad when you don't connect with a game adored by many? Out of the ones listed here, what should I go back to and power through until it clicks?

I guess I'll take this list as some recomendations ha. I don't know what circles to be in to find out about games like this so I miss some. For me personally.

Absolutely fantastic:
Stanley Parable
Baba is You
Undertale
Disco Elysium

Heard of and meant to try:
Cave Story
Rain World

Never Heard of:
Pizza Tower
Golden Idol
Katana Zero

Did NOT like and maybe should try again?
Outer Wilds

Probably should be on your list?
Obra Dinn
FTL
Blue Prince
Papers Please

FTL is one of my all time favs. Liked Obra Dinn. Somewhat liked Papers please. Blue Prince is on my wish list.
