The Room Series
A popular video game series for all the puzzle addicts out there, The Room is a BAFTA award-winning 3D puzzler from the independent studio, Fireproof Games. Guided by a bunch of cryptic letters, you find yourself embroiled in a deep and unsettling mystery. The game spanned a whole series with a total of five games, including a spin-off released exclusively for VR platforms.
Monument Valley 2
If you enjoyed Monument Valley’s unique style of gameplay, then this sequel is definitely worth playing too! More story-driven compared to the first game, Monument Valley 2 features a mother and her daughter moving around mazes characterized by optical illusions and impossible objects, making it a challenging mobile game but not to the point of becoming frustrating. Beautiful and enjoyable.
80 Days
Who doesn’t love traveling and exploring our vast and beautiful planet? Now it’s time to take your passion to the next level with 80 Days, a race around the globe with a never-stopping timer that will challenge you to circumnavigate the world in 80 days. Thousands of routes are available in this game, so you can choose whether to travel by airship, camel, submarine, express train, and so much more! Which path will take you to victory?
Alto’s Odyssey
The sequel to Alto’s Adventure, Alto’s Odyssey is a beautifully designed endless sandboarding game that will test your patience and challenge you to achieve your highest score! Jump through the dunes and perform tricks to gain points, increase your score, level up, and unlock new characters. Alto’s Odyssey will have you coming back for more!
Mini Metro
You’ve just been tasked with designing and building an efficient metro system for a fast-growing city. Are you up for the challenge? Draw lines between the stations and get the trains running, always with a careful eye on your limited resources! The levels are based on real-life cities, so there’s a chance you may be working on a project for your city’s subway network!
Stardew Valley
Stardew Valley is not your average farming game. It’s an immersive experience where you’ll have the opportunity to create the farm of your dreams — the perfect formula for a popular indie game! Starting from the farm you inherited from your grandfather, you’ll learn how to live off the land, become a part of the local community, and even meet that special someone you can start a family with if you’d like to.
Hidden Folks
Hidden Folks is a hidden object game with a unique monochromatic art style. Search for out-of-sight characters, objects, and animals in a hand-drawn and interactive landscape. With more than 300 targets to find scattered around 32 areas, Hidden Folks is one of those Android games that will grant you hours and hours of entertainment!
Minecraft
Minecraft is the best example of a sandbox-style game. Don’t underestimate its potential: You can really build anything you want with the resources available in the game, with talented players all over the world building futuristic cities, massive castles, and perfect replicas of settings from The Hunger Games or Gotham City! It’s still one of the most popular mobile games, with a massive following despite being released in 2011. It’s no wonder it’s also the best-selling video game of all time.
Rymdkapsel
Let’s escape to outer space for a moment to play Rymdkapsel, a minimalist real-time strategy game. The title may be hard to pronounce, but the premise is simple: You find yourself in command of a space station and its minions. Your job is to work on expanding the place while managing your resources as best as you can and balancing defenses against intergalactic attackers.
Oxenfree
Craving some spooky supernatural adventuring? In Oxenfree, you’ll play the role of Alex, a rebellious teenager on a trip to an isolated island with her stepbrother Jonas to attend a party. That is until all hell breaks loose, and now it’s up to you to deal with supernatural events and a dark mystery linked to the island itself. Can you change the course of your friends’ lives for the better?
Threes!
Triple Town
Had this on Kindle for a while. Loved it, Bought it. But then for some reason it was not longer supported and the game disappeared from the platform. (Not the only game I've encountered that will disappear from your device when it is no longer carried by the store.)

Limbo
Oh this is far lower on the list than it should be! Not only is Limbo good and fun but it's mildly challenging, clever, and has assumable plot that's fun to think about and figure into. It's one of those games that consumed you with it's simple complexity. I played some of this years ago and adored it more than anything. There's another game I'm thinking of too with like..a voodoo doll looking boy!

Why did the descriptions end after the first few games? They're super helpful.
I'd like to add Rainy Attic Room. You have to help a tiny guy who suffers from depression feel better. It's so incredibly wholesome.
Some of The games lower on the list are FAR better than the repetitive top games! And are getting very slept on. And there's way more awesome games to look at!
Can we add "shatter" arcanoid style game?, It was on xbox360 and the music is superb, also pinout, super nice soundtrack
Also despotism 3k, superhard micromanaging despotic supercomputer that tries to enslave humanity
