My Game of the Year

ORIGINAL POST

I often see a lot of the same games posted here. I absolutely love playing indie games and was wondering if anyone has any favorites that don't get enough love here or elsewhere, either because they're overlooked or because they're just not known. I've already played a lot of the bigger ones people suggest like To the Moon, Omori, Celeste, Life is Strange, etc.

Genre doesn't matter. I'm down to play any genres whether they're a wholesome visual novel, gruesome horror, action packed adventure, or anything in between; just wanna support some smaller devs/teams.

If you have multiple suggestions, I'll take em. If you have a game, I'll take that too!

Edit: I'm reading all of these and checking them out. Thanks for all the suggestions. Some of them definitely look fun.

In my opinion, Transistor is heavily underappreciated. The studio is by now well known for Hades, but their earlier titles are great too, and Transistor is my favourite.

I remember getting it for free on Epic Games a few years back and I wasn't interested in it at all.

Then someone on Twitter mentioned it and so I gave it a shot. I think about that game to this day and I've been desperately trying to find games in a similar setting

I love that game. People try to avoid it because of the artstyle but that's the best part!

I made a review for it, I hope it's all right to post it so anyone wanting to learn what makes it so great and how it plays can easily do so: https://youtu.be/yl2jAYpfNKo

West of Loathing - comedy RPG with turn-based combat. Very funny, not too short but doesn’t overstay it’s welcome.

Helltaker - puzzle game about building yourself a harem of demon girls. Surprisingly hard, funny, and SFW

Oxenfree - choose-your-story mystery/mild horror. Think “Until Dawn”, but low budget and well written.

SYNTHETIK - roguelite shooter with satisfying gunplay and lots of customization. Also has co-op.

Blasphemous - 15-20 hr metroidvania with good combat, great bosses, and a pixelated Dark Souls-esque style.

For some slightly more well-known ones: Stanley Parable, Outer Wilds, Papers Please, and Post Void are all very unique and worth a look.

Finally, if by some miracle you haven’t played: Hotline Miami, Disco Elysium, Katana Zero, Hollow Knight, or Hades, then those jump to the top of my recommendations. They’ve gotten plenty of praise at this point though.

Obscure Indie Recommendations for the Steam Winter Sale 2023

Posted by carnaxcce · in r/Games · 1 year ago

I play a bunch of indie games, obscure and otherwise, and every 6 months or so I like to do a big recommendation post that coincides with a Steam sale. And let me tell you, this has been a banger 6 months for indie games. Let us begin!

Obscure (<100 reviews)

Death Unphased is a delightful little Celeste-like. Tight controls, good level design, and a compelling and unique mechanical gimmick all make for a great platforming experience. The movement feels real good!
Magicube is an absolutely brutal block pushing puzzle game. The puzzles are all fantastic, but they get real hard real fast. Cannot recommend enough if you're looking for a challenge.
Mice Tea (NSFW) is a furry romance VN with some of if not the best writing I've read in a video game all year. I absolutely love the cast of characters here-- they're all funny, wholesome, well realized, and have great relationships both romantically with the MC (who is a fantastic character in her own right, not just a cipher for the player) and among themselves. The stories here all have strong, well executed themes about trust, love, acceptance, and relationships in general. Yes, there is a lot of sex (all of which is focused on a very particular set of fetishes), but the game lets you turn on per-scene content warnings and even skip all of the sex scenes entirely-- and this game would still be one of my favorites from this year without them.
Octopticom is a great Zachlike about mixing colors of light. Has a really unique collection of devices and rules that makes this a very compelling twist on the pretty standard collection of comparch-ish devices it tasks you with making.
Polimines 2 is a perfect followup to Polimines. Polimines had a great idea, but was a bit short and ended before the puzzles really got to stretch their wings. Polimines 2 picks up right where the first ends-- its puzzles are bigger, more difficult, and there's twice as many of them. Plus, they're all packed with top tier deductions. It's still a little rough quality of life wise, but in terms of puzzle quality it can go toe to toe with the best.
Star Seeker in: the Secret of the Sorcerous Standoff was the most delightful surprise I've had all year. It's more or less an extremely good hour long Ace Attorney case (or more accurately an hour long Tangle Tower-like). You play as a non-binary wizard out on parole as a police consultant (magic is a crime). You collect evidence, talk to people, and point out contradictions as you gradually unravel what's going on. Best of all, just about every single deduction that happens has to do with the rules of the magic system as the game has laid them out to you but everything is still consistent and logical-- it's a pretty staggering feat of writing imo. Plus all of the writing is hilarious (and there's so much of it for such a tiny game), and all of the characters get a nontrivial amount of character development over the game's short runtime. If you play one game from this list, make it this one. (There's a demo! It's a short prequel case, so I'd recommend everyone play it regardless of whether you plan to play the whole game)

Kind of Obscure (<1,000 reviews)

Laika: Aged Through Blood is a metroidvania smushed up with those old Flash motorcycle games. It's got an impeccable aesthetic, brutal combat, and a satisfying core gameplay loop all joined together with a great story.
Let's! Revolution! is a Minesweeper Roguelike with all of the mechanical innovations necessary to make that genre mashup work. The cast of characters all feel dramatically different to play as, needing entirely different strategies and deductions to be successful. Plus, the difficulty levels are all well considered adjustments for each character instead of generic modifiers!
Paquerette Down the Bunburrows is an adorable puzzle game about herding rabbits into traps that has probably the most shocking meta-puzzle reveal I've ever seen in one of these games (note: I received this game for free)
Small Saga. Oh, Small Saga. What an absolute joy it is to play an indie JRPG where the writing is just good (unlike some others I could name). The combat is all too easy, but the story, characters, art, music, and animation are all perfect.

Not Very Obscure (>1,000 reviews)

Cobalt Core is my favorite roguelike deckbuilder in a long time. Has huge Hades vibes all the way down-- extremely polished visuals, mountains of incredible character writing and banter, and a core combat system that is an absolute blast to engage with run after run (even if it's not very deep). I would die for Books and no one can stop me
Dome Keeper solves the very particular problem of me wanting to play Motherload again but Motherload not actually being a very good game. Making it a roguelike solves so many problems! If you have recommendations for games that scratch this very specific mining-related itch, please let me know
I cannot believe that Pseudoregalia is the first 3D platformer I've ever played with metroidvania-style progression for your movement abilities-- I can only imagine that this isn't more common because it's extremely difficult to nail the feel of the movement, which this game absolutely does. Plus the world design is great-- obviously very Dark Souls inspired with areas that are all visually distinct but that still double back and wind around each other in satisfying ways.
From the team behind Scarlet Hollow comes Slay the Princess, which asks the bold question: What if The Stanley Parable was a horror visual novel where you're repeatedly stabbed to death by a hot lady(?) in a princess dress? And it was all narrated by Mr Magnus Archives himself, Jonathan Sims? The answer: it's incredible. The narrative here is so responsive to the actions you take that it feels like magic, and limiting the number of loops you can do through the story really incentivizes you to push the limits and do replays to see what you missed. Plus it kind of goes without saying, but Abby Howard's art absolutely slaps.
To the Core is my favorite incremental game I played this year. Is it good? No. Incremental games never are. It will massage your brain in all the right ways for a few hours, though.

Bookshelf

I have found my ability to sit down and play a game that is more or less a book has really suffered the last few months, so I have a pretty sizable number of games I'd love to dig more into but just haven't had the attention span for. I'm sticking them all here because what little I've played of them has been very promising, but I haven't given them the time necessary for a full endorsement:

In Stars and Time has the most endearing collection of characters I maybe have ever seen, and I'm a sucker for exploring the absolutely devastating psychological impact of being stuck in a time loop.
Misericorde: Volume One has one of the best premises for a story I've ever heard. You play as an Anchoress (you know, a nun that's been bricked up into a sealed room for life? Like in Pentiment?) let out of her room to help solve a murder mystery because she's the only one with a solid alibi.
Saltsea Chronicles has you playing as the crew of a ship in a very hopeful post-apocalypse. I am so here for this game's exploration of non-capitalist societies and nontraditional families

Not on Steam

All of these games are free! You have no excuses not to play them, especially since they’re all short (Roottrees is the longest at ~4 hours) and absolutely delightful

The Roottrees are Dead is an incredible detective game that mashes up Obra Dinn-style people classification with a Her Story-styled search engine. Absolutely loved this game, it has some of the best puzzles I've ever seen in this genre.
12 Word Searches isn't even a video game, but it's still one of my favorite puzzle experiences I've had this year. It takes you on a delightful little journey, and figuring out the final puzzle was one of the most joyous moments I've ever had playing a game
Escape from Castle Claymount is an absolutely lovely room escape game. While it seems the market has been moving towards full 3D room escape games, I will always prefer the old neutral fixed camera angle style. Especially when it comes with cute characters and a simple but effective story 👀 (full disclosure, the creator of this game is a close personal friend of mine)

My Game of the Year

Is Void Stranger.

Void Stranger is a hard game to recommend. It demands quite a bit of its players as you loop through its levels multiple times, slowly picking at the edges of its mysteries and story-- and let me tell you, there is so much more to those mysteries than it initially seems. Digging into this game with the help of the System Erasure Discord server is one of my favorite experiences in gaming ever, full stop. The big moments at the very end of the story are jaw-dropping. If you're willing to do what this game demands of you, there is truly nothing else like it out there.

And that's it from me! If you like this post, please consider checking out my posts from previous sales:

And subscribe to my Steam curator page! Most of the games I featured here were recommended there first, and I have a huge back catalog of recommendations as well.

Thank you!!

Have you heard of Brutal Orchestra? I got turned onto it by another "obscure indie games" curator and it's complex (for my tastes) but incredible. A turn-based roguelike all about resource management/balancing penalties to be able to fuel your moves. It's sitting just over 1k reviews so wasn't sure if you covered it before.

I will second Pseudoregalia. I actually bought it and Brutal Orchestra at the same time which is what made me think of the former, but Psuedo is definitely much more in my wheelhouse. I love how the game lets you brute force your way through sequence breaks; it shows how strong the core mechanics are that one or two upgrades are enough to let you get to a lot of places you shouldn't be able to reach yet.

Absolutely loved Potionomics. The management side of the game could use some tweaking but I read that the developers made some really great QoL updates since I last played.

Great characters, great art style, addictive gameplay and a great soundtrack, I highly recommend Potionomics as well.

jinreeko · 1 year ago

While I did love Potionomics, I'm not sure if I'd call it "chill". A couple of the early cycles I felt pretty stressed to get potions ready for the contest. Also dealing with reagents is kind of a hassle. Perfect otherwise though

Well compared to Recettear it's pretty chill haha. I did fail the first contest but, on my next playthough I smashed it into oblivion.

Once you get a handle on the potion creation it's rather addictive.

Lies of P was not indie enough for me to feature here but hoo boy that game is really good. Definitely my favorite big budget game I played this year.

In a year without Void Stranger Can of Wormholes would probably have been my pick for game of the year, though I would’ve been tempted to give it to 12 Word Searches just to be silly lol

1 upvotes on reddit

Upstairs-End-2077 · 1 year ago

Also Rune Factory, which is a Marvelous series. Even something like Potionomics is debatable when I remember it being one of the most prominent games showcased in a past Steam Next Fest. I understand not everyone pays attention to these events, but the term obscure is being employed very loosely here.

CityTrialOST · 1 year ago

Turns out it was a Youtube person, but this was the video where they shared it. I mostly play indie games so it's not often I find something new in these (I mean the same video recommended Deep Rock Galactic and Bomb Rush Cyberfunk), but I always give them a try in case they show something new (Psuedoregalia and Brutal Orchestra).

Their channel isn't bad, either.

While I'm recommending people who go through random games, I like Iron Pineapple for finding random Souls-like demos.

El Paso, Elsewhere is a “kind of obscure” game that has an extremely cool Max Payne-meets-Bloodrayne vibe.

Crystal Project not being listed here has gotta be a sin! Imagine FF5 but with even more depth. It's an absolutely amazing game and deserves waaaay more attention than it got. Any classic FF fan or SNES JRPG era aficionado needs to immediately stop reading this and go play it. Like... right now.

I really wanted to like it, but the bosses were far too trial and error for my taste. The exploration, tactics, general aesthetic were awesome, but the bosses killed my enthusiasm. Each require a specific setup, that went against the experimentation I had enjoyed.

SunTizzu · 1 year ago

I run a small YouTube channel about indie games and recently made my own top 10. You can check out the video here if you want, but I'll list some games that haven't been mentioned yet below:

24 Killers (154 reviews): A surreal adventure game, basically a modern take on a Love De Lic game (creators of Moon and Chulip).
Can of Wormholes (251 reviews): A brilliant Sokoban-like that is on par with the genre-defining Baba is You and Stephen's Sausage Roll.
Moonring (844 reviews): A free retro RPG in the style of the Ultima series, made by the co-creator of the Fable series.
VIVIDLOPE (165 reviews): An arcadey puzzle platformer that looks and plays like a forgotten Dreamcast game.
Mortal Sin (979 reviews): A first person roguelite with some of the best melee combat I have experienced.

I can also vouch for Saltsea Chronicles, even if it fails to reach the highs of its incredibly underrated predecessor Mutazione.

Two Worlds II.

Most people either have no idea what it is or never played it due to issues with the first game or simply thinking it's a crappier Elder Scrolls knockoff.

Honestly I think the story is pretty cool. More importantly the world and gameplay are amazing. The combat looks much better than skyrim, more weapon and armor variety, can customize the coloration of armor sets, can customize spells, set traps, horses are really good and have different qualities [also has a horse whistle], has this cool scouting treasure thing called an oculus, and so much more. The dungeons are amazing and there is so much variety in enemy types and species. Side content is a ton of fun as well.

The game is far from perfect but its probably my favorite RPG especially on the PS3. Yes I enjoyed it more than Skyrim but I understand not everyone will feel the same. Regardless I think anyone that likes open world RPGs should definitely give it a chance.

Any incredible but lesser know game recommendations ?

Posted by nickv656 · in r/gaming · 1 year ago

I recently ran across Omori, and it was such a treat to play, but I had heard literally nothing about it and only played it on a whim after seeing a meme involving one of the characters. Does anyone know of games that really stand out in their genre but are under appreciated or under advertised ?

I don’t care which genre, but here are some games I would say fit the category: Inscryption, Omori, Rimworld, Undertale (included not for being under appreciated, but rather for being standout). I extra appreciate if the story is powerful!

Thanks for your time folks

EDIT: I've seen a ton of really cool reccomendations already, thanks so much yall! Just wanted to also throw in Slay the Princess as a game that fits.

Obscure Indie Game Recommendations for the Steam Summer Sale 2022

Posted by carnaxcce · in r/Games · 3 years ago

I play a ton of obscure indie games, and a bunch of my favorites are currently on sale. I don't think these games get the attention they deserve and they're all worth your time, so take a look if any of them catch your interest!

Everything from my previous list is still on sale and I still highly recommend everything on it, especially the two early access games (Spin Rhythm XD and Scarlet Hollow) that have received more content in the last 6 months.

And here are some of the great games I've played in the last 6 months that are on sale:

Supraland Six Inches Under is an incredible iteration on the original Supraland. Better puzzles, better world design, cool new powers, much improved combat/puzzle balance.
Astalon: Tears of the Earth is a great retro styled Metroidvania. Control a party of heroes each with different strengths, weaknesses, and traversal abilities through a huge tower full of secrets. Feels kind of like a cool iteration on a roguelike, since every time you die you respawn at the base of the tower and you make progress by unlocking fast travel points.
The Void Rains Upon Her Heart is an astounding indie sidescrolling boss rush roguelike shmup. An absolutely staggering amount of content from dozens of bosses, four distinct and individually compelling gameplay modes, and a really singular aesthetic and writing style. It's still in early access and gets updates every two weeks, the last couple of updates have really fleshed out the story mode with more random events.
Poker Quest is a super crunchy spin on the roguelike deckbuilder. All of the combat is handled through drawing cards from a standard 52 card deck and using them to activate items. I'm constantly astounded at both the depth of the gameplay decisions (there's both a great roguelike deckbuilder-esque build crafting and combat system and a really complex and difficult resource management game here, and they're both really tightly intertwined). I have about 20 hours in it and have never even ventured past the first of 5 bosses, I've just had a blast playing with all of the different characters (there are tons!

And since I've played a ton of puzzle games recently, here's a puzzle game lightning round. I highly recommend all of these:

hexceed is Hexcells but with a practically infinite amount of easy but huge puzzles.
Yugo Puzzle is the latest from the guy who made Jelly no Puzzle
A Monster's Expedition is the coziest puzzle game, nay the coziest game I have ever played. Recently received a really excellent update that adds hints to every puzzle that don't trivialize the puzzles themselves.
Bean and Nothingness has all the looks of a super difficult top-down Sokoban like, but you don't actually push any blocks around?? Really novel mechanics
Patrick's Parabox Absolutely joyous showcase of Sokoban-based recursion
Bonfire Peaks is a more accessible spin on Stephen's Sausage Roll
Jelly is Sticky is Sokoban, but you're sticky jelly
Linelith is The Witness, but tiny
Polimines is Picross, but also Minesweeper.

And that's it from me! Any other under-the-radar indies people would recommend checking out?

This is my favorite type of thread on this sub.

Lots of really cool games I’ve never heard of and plenty to love.

It might not be obscure enough, but I’ll recommend Dusk. It’s a retro FPS where the game is constantly rewarding you for pushing at the edges and finding secrets. Solid gunplay that reminds me of Quake more than anything else in a horror setting and you can one-shot enemies with bars of soap and the y axis is unlocked so you can do flips while dual wielding shotguns.

I'll just go ahead and drop the boomer shooter list. Also GoG's sale is still ongoing till June 27th.

I highly recommend Dusk. Exploration and level design is a key component of boomer shooters^1 Dusk excels beyond any game I've played in ages. The level design is art. Repeatedly you will enter a level and just be left stunned by what the designer did.

If anyone wants a quick rundown of Boomer Shooters:

Dusk exquisite level design, leans more towards Quake Steam - GOG
Ion Fury Modern build engine game. Things go boom in a big way! Steam - GOG
Amid Evil Heretic/Hexen but with better combat and full 3d Steam - GOG
HROT Quake but with a huge dose of Czechoslovakia jank. Great vibe Steam - GOG
Nightmare Reaper Mix Doom and a looter shooter. Starts slow but really opens up late game. Crazy guns (you can shoot hornets at people) Steam - GOG
Ultrakill Combat as dance. Feels very inspired by Doom 2016/Doom Eternal. Steam - GOG

Additionally there are these games which I haven't played:

WRATH: Aeon of Ruin Steam - GOG
Prodeus Steam - GOG
Forgive Me Father Steam - GOG
Hedon Bloodrite Steam - GOG
Viscerafest Steam - GOG
Fi da Puti Samurai Steam - GOG

Classics, older games but definitely still fun to play today:

Duke Nukem 3d Steam
Blood: Fresh Supply Steam - GOG
Outlaws + A Handful of Missions Steam - GOG
Doom 64

I'm not even a big boomer shooter guy but I'll second the hell out of Nightmare Reaper. Don't let the procedural generation of the maps warn you away from it, It changes the environment so so frequently that the levels always feel so fresh.

Noita is an indie gem that deserves more attention. It sells itself as a 2D roguelike where every pixel is simulated, which is true. The physics system and interactivity of the gameworld are unmatched in the 2D space and exceed even most 3D games. It's brutally difficult demands the player raise their skill level; there is no tutorial, no handholding, and no easy mode. You will die, and are expected to learn from you mistakes.

The wandcrafting with hundreds of spells is one of the deepest mechanics I have ever seen in a game, in over twenty years of gaming. The combinations are limitless.

But what makes the game so special is the unbelievable amount of secrets. There is an entire world in the game, with lore, and characters, and static locations and items. The sense of adventure is incredible. I still vividly remember getting to the third level, wandering off to a new area shrouded in darkness, and spending five minutes debating if I wanted to take a risk and explore this new magical place that I had never seen, or continue onwards to my intended destination. There was a real sense of danger and excitement, because exploring would likely mean death and an end of the run, but there are powerful rewards around every corner.

I haven't felt that sense of adventure in a game since I was a kid, and it was special moment.

This is truly a gem of a game. It's made by three people, and has a stunning amount of content with a dedicated modding community. And it's on sale right now.

Go pick it up, and prepare to die.

CCoolant · 3 years ago

I've been playing Noita lately. I probably recommend it, but prepare for hours upon hours of learning. I have put 30 hours into the game, beaten it once (probably could do more if I wasn't trying to explore so much), and still get my shit kicked in on early levels frequently.

It's an extremely good game, but you need to make the time and that time will not be spent simply exploring. You need to work and your reward for that work is the ability to properly explore. It can be extremely frustrating and the early game can get tiring. The rewards of learning how to craft even a basic wand are exciting, but they won't carry you for long.

If you want to take the dive, be prepared.

Billion Road - It's like Fortune street combined with a bit of Pokemon. Roll around Japan investing in properties and then collecting monsters to attack other player. or even giant kaiju!

Siralim Ultimate - The ultimate roguelite teambuilding topdown dungeon crawler. Select a class, get perks, Build a team of 6 monsters, equip them with gear and spells and then embark on one of the most customizable crawlers.

Coin Game - It's a first person arcade sim with an optional survival mode where you have to earn money by doing things like mowing grass and paper routes. you have to earn prizes in the arcade and sell them too.

Earth Defense Force 4.1 and Earth Defense Force 5 - Starship troopers dialed up even more, wonderful in co-op!

[Freedom Planet] (https://store.steampowered.com/app/248310/Freedom_Planet/) - It's Sonic

[Kaze and the Wild Masks] (https://store.steampowered.com/app/829280/Kaze_and_the_Wild_Masks/) - It's Donkey Kong Country

Rune Factory 4 Special - Stardew Valley with MORE RPG ((Do NOT get Rune Factory 5 it's a downgrade in terms of gameplay and story))

Stolen Realm - If Divinity: Original Sin was all combat and a rougelite

Time Break Chronicles - A weird oldschool rpg in the vein of Final Fantasy, you select your team from a very large cast and travel through space and time, also Rougelite.

Waves of Steel - Basic Naval Ops: Warship Gunner, think Battleship dialed straight up to ludicrous.

Citizen Sleeper is new, but it's been getting good reviews. It's a story-focused transhuman game set on a miniature space station where you have to invest the dice rolls you get every turn in order to earn the resources you need to not have your robotic body succumb to planned obsolescence. Made by the same team that made In Other Waters.

Control sent me off on a New Weird journey after I first played it. Had me reading a bunch of China Mieville and Jeff Vandermeer and watching stuff like The Endless and Infinity Train.

I enjoyed most of it and still keep up with a couple of the authors, but what I enjoyed most was Infinity Train, a hard to find cartoon from one of the people behind Regular Show; and There Is No Antimemetics Division by qntm, which is a short novel that I think is set in the SCP universe, idk but really great read.

marcuschookt · 5 months ago

I've had the opposite experience. Multiple subreddits touted Control as one of the best games they've ever played, good graphics good story good atmosphere etc.

I found it to be exactly where it should be - a modest and well done lower budget project that did a few things but did them well enough.

I enjoyed it because I bought it at a discount, I think full price would have tipped my opinion the other way.

I was itching for a ARPG. I can't get Last Epoch or Diablo IV right now. So when I tried it again I was open to really give it a chance.

The first time I played I found it not very engaging and too complicated, but I was wrong. What I thought to be complicated turned out to be my favorite aspect of it. Building your character.

You can mix 2 classes and it is more simple than other games. The devotion system can be a little overwhelming but it has a search function that helps a lot. And the loot filter is so good after you make some coins and just want the items for your specific build.

Svarog's Dream is a wonderful, focused, topdown action RPG experience with some pretty interesting mechanics. The character you play as has their own goals, but when you die, they also die permanently, and thus their dreams die with them. it has fun classes, the world is fun to explore without being too large, it always adds something new right at the right times to keep the gameplay/story fresh, and there are world events. The DLC is good too, so if you finish one ending and want more seriously considering picking that up too.

Eador Genesis is a between-genre game. The creator(s) wanted to play a strategy fantasy expansionist party/town management game and saw that none existed...so they made one themselves.

Final Profit: A Shop RPG Do you like watching numbers go up, but wish the number go up games were more interactive? Do you like endearing yet funny characters? How about some truly interesting and funny side quests, and being a shopkeeper? This game is technically EA but has a full campaign. It's only "EA" because the Dev just can't seem to help themselves, so they keep adding more and more and more content. You'll be buying a full and unique experience with this one, I promise.

The Choice Of games, specifically Heart Of The House. You are a spiritual investigator trying to find your lost uncle, who was last seen at the manor of a baron of ill repute. If you like playing games where your chocies matter, you will be in heaven here because every single thing matters. I truly mean it! You get to decide how you do your ghost hunting/your spiritual specialization, who you trust and who trusts you, what clues you follow (if you manage to avoid bungling the lead), who lives and who dies, and of course the ending...of which there are several. If you like the sound of a very choice-heavy narrative with good story, but the haunted mansion theme doesn't tickle your fancy, you could take a peek at Tin Star. In that one, you play as a should-be-dead criminal who finds themselves overseeing a parcel of the wild West instead. Help save the local townships or join the bad guys, or just become chaotically good and bring some dynamite.

I might have gotten carried away a bit. Definitely not all of these games are niche, but here's my list of games (in no particular order) that I would buy if I didn't already have them.

Gunpoint - It's like 3 bucks right now and is by far my favourite indie puzzler.
Descenders - It's basically the Tony Hawk game of biking. The only other game in the genre is Riders Republic, but I'd argue Descenders does biking better.
Grow Home - Dirt cheap right now and in my opinion criminally underrated casual, chill, exploration game. It's published by Ubisoft but doesn't require their launcher
Grow Up - The sequel to Grow Home. Basically more of the same and just as good
Guacamelee 1 and Guacamelee 2 - Pretty good if you are into the 2D metroidvania action platformer genre
Project Wingman - 3 dudes got sick of waiting for Ace Combat 7 and said "Fuck it, we'll make our own Ace Combat, with blackjack and hookers." AC7 did actually come out before PW was finished, but still, PW is really damn good.
Sid Meier's Pirates - Ok, hear me out. It looks like shit, it plays like shit, but it has a certain charm to it that I haven't really seen in any modern game. It's basically Mount and Blade, but casual and about pirates.
Ronin - It's not for everybody, but if it looks like something you might enjoy, I recommend it. It's pretty short and a few of the levels are absolute bullshit but I had a lot of fun with it and definitely think it's worth the 3 bucks it goes for right now.
Slipstream - For some arcade cabinet racing nostalgia. Honestly, I think the price is a bit much, even with the discount, but if you are into this sort of thing, it's quite good.
Horizon Chase Turbo - Basically like Slipstream, but more modern. It won't keep you on the pc for hours but it's a nice time waster in my opinion.
Hot Lava - If you liked CS surf maps, you'd probably like that one. One of the better 3D platformers these days.
Heat Signature - Hotline Miami, but in space and with more mechanics. Doesn't really have a story, but it's still really good.
Hand of Fate - Probably starting to stretch the definition of "lesser known" here, but Hand of Fate is a really charming, pretty unique kinda-deck-builder-kinda-not game. I really enjoyed it. The sequel is not as good though.
Megaton Rainfall - Probably the closest we'll ever get to a Superman game. It has its problems and it's not worth the full price, but I recommend getting it on sale. Also has VR support, albeit not very good in my opinion.
RUINER - Cyberpunk meets Hotline Miami. Highly, highly recommended.
Hidden Folks - If you ever wanted a "Where's Waldo" game.
A Story About My Uncle - A Short 3D platformer with a charming story. It was the LeafyIsHere game back in the day if anybody still remembers him
BPM: Bullets per Minute - If Doom was a rhythm game. You won't sink hundreds of hours into it, but it's fun occasionally. Price might be a bit high even with the discount.
Townscraper - Pointless, charming and relaxing
Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey - Definitely not for everybody and it has quite a few problems, but I found it really charming in a way. There was just something about the pre-historic natural landscape that clicked with me.
Mad Max - It's very far from niche, but I don't normally see Steam promoting it and for 5 bucks it's an absolute steal, so get it if you don't have it already.

Figured since I see them on your list its worth mentioning to folks that until December 7th BPM and Project Wingman are included in the Humble Choice games choices for November. You can buy like a 3 games of the bundle selection sub for like $15 iirc and the games are included as Steam keys and kept forever(no need to stay subbed to play them once you purchased the bundle and selected the game and input the key into Steam) so you can unsub immediately and get to keep your games.

Its cheaper then Steam store directly just for project wingman and could be cheaper if interested in BPM if you wanted at least one of the other game options from the months bundle.
