For me it's first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they're open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that's stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

I liked the point and click games when they were 2d hand drawn and not (3d) rendered. It seems to be a thing that has now been lost to time.

submachine?

Are those still playable? Loved those, great vibe!

mateusz has some on his website that you can buy for $25 in the form of the "complete collection." He is also currently working on "submachine legacy" which combines all games into one and will be released on steam and I'm assuming will be paid.

Interesting! Not exactly what I would think of but this seems right up my alley. Thank you!

Wadjet Eye still makes them, no? There's still a few, they're not totally gone. I always keep an eye out for them on Steam.

Wadjet Eye games are soooo good.
