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?

My best recommendation for "replaying" the game is to get the mod "Quantum Space Buddies" and play it alongside a friend. I did this and it allowed me to play it vicariously through them, letting them make all of the decisions and just offering up tiny tidbits of assistance where necessary.

The mod has some bugs, but it's way more full-featured than I was expecting, and it's frequently updated to iron out more bugs

That is exactly what I ended up doing! It was a blast, definitely would also recommend
