      Dang. This is almost my list as well, and the ones that are different I can totally see why they could be on someone else’s list. I like your taste in games.

        Thanks. Also now realizing that picking just 10 is super hard and looking back at my list there’s like 2 strong honorable mentions for every title in my list (some might even be swappable).

        Just off the top of my head, a few others I’d rate as A-tier or S-tier all-time-greats in my personal list:

        • Disco Elysium
        • Final Fantasy 7
        • Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
        • Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
        • Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
        • Hades
        • Dishonored
        • Banjo Kazooie
        • Doom (2016)
        • Dead Space
        • Psychonauts 2 (part 1 is also A-tier)
        • GTA 5
        • Case of the Golden Idol
        • Mass Effect 2
        • Paradise Killer
        • Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
        • The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles (both parts are excellent)
        • Shadow of the Colossus
        • Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2
        • Tony Hawk’s Underground
        • A Dark Room
        • 999 (aka Zero Escape, aka 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors)
        • edit: How the hell did I forget Portal?!

      Is Obra Dinn that good? I started it but only played for about an hour. If it’s on your top 10 I might have to give it another look.

        I love Obra Dinn, but not top 10 love. I think the fresh style in an industry of samey games using the same few engines made it really stand out for me. It’s retro styled, but also goes beyond that to show you it’s world in a new way.

        If the art style doesn’t do it for you then you might not enjoy it as much.

        Subjectively I’d say definitely yes. I adore cerebral games with interesting stories to tell, and this one has that plus a ton of mystery at its core (mystery is maybe my favorite genre of any fiction). The art style can be a little hard for some to get behind, but if you enjoy similar themes & game elements it’s a phenomenal game that will live in your head rent-free for awhile after you’ve finished. It’s one of only maybe three games I’ve ever legitimately referred to as a masterpiece (one of the others being Outer Wilds).
