Any good games that break the mold (self.games)

It feels like new games are just more of the same, with no real meaning. However I recently started playing "Return of the Obra Dihn" and love open ended deduction in it. It feels like I'm actually figuring things out by myself without being handheld through it. Are there any other games that don't coddle the player that you guys recommend?

Antichamber really stood out to me even among other puzzle games

Superliminal is also a VERY good puzzle game that isn’t like others.

I was ready to replay antichamber and make it one of the few games I did every puzzle in, then the ending happened and I put it down never to pick it up again. Why the heck did they change everything up in the last 2% of the game?

I much prefer recommending lingo these days.
