Can confirm that Outer Wilds and Return of the Obra Dinn are amazing games unlike anything I've had played before. Though both needed some time before it clicked for me. Subnautica, Celeste, Hollow Knight, and Hades are solid games too.
I'd also like to mention Soma (a horror game I still often think about) and the two Ori games (metroidvanias with incredible soundtracks).
If you liked Obra Dinn, I really like The Roottrees are Dead which was very similar but kind of different.
Thanks for the recommendation. That looks interesting. Added to my wishlist. Hope there's not too much typing or it might get tiresome on the steam deck.
My partner and I played Roottrees together and I think it might have been our favourite game ever. We really enjoyed The Case of the Golden Idol too which scratches a similar itch (though I would love for them to make a Roottrees sequel)
