What "unique" or single-game-genre games have you enjoyed? (lemmy.today)

I can think of a handful of games that, despite being games that I've enjoyed, never really became part of a "genre". Do you have any like this, and if so, which?

Are they games that you'd like to see another entrant to the genre to? Would you recommend the original game as one to keep playing?

I agree with many that have already been said, but I'll add braid, dust force, and prison architect

Team Buddies for the ps1. Small team rts game, lots of unique units and the bright style is a great contrast to the fighting

BLARP! I suppose it's a physics game but I'm not aware of anything else quite like it. It's incredibly simple, addictive, and could only really exist as a VR game.

Shout out to Superhot and Noita, already mentioned in this thread.

Space Station 14!

There's no other game like it. It's so absurdly in depth! You can play super hardcore with loads of knowledge and be next to a total casual in the same shift both enjoying your time together!

It's in early access on Steam right now. Ask and you shall receive!
