Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

FTL: Faster Than Light, a pixel sci fi rouge like where you manage a ship and crew jumping point to point on a mission through space. I keep coming back to it and it's always fun. There's an amazing mod community that I'll just starting to explore as well

I rarely hear people talk about it but whenever I do, it's nothing but love.

I feel that when it first came out all my podcasts that I was listening to at the time were talking about it for at least 6 months. It really got its hooks into me and I also come back to it occasionally as well.

I still see tons of people talking about it lawl. That does not fit this question.

It's so good. Into the Breach is also fantastic
