Tell me what is the most recent game that you played that could be considered obscure to the average person. For me it would have to be cdda/cataclysm:Dark Days Ahead. This screenshot was made by me if you're wondering.

Suzerain, probably. It's a political visual novel where you play as the newly elected President of a country called Sordland and have to lead it through your first term. Time period is early-Cold War, and the country is recovering after a period of civil war and instability.

It's got some basic strategy mechanics, and is extremely choice heavy. But at the end of the day, it's a visual novel, and gameplay consists exclusively of reading and choosing from a series of offered choices. It nails that, though. If you like processing through really difficult choices as a video game thing, this game does it better than almost any other.

On par with The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante.
