broforce: run-and-gun platformer, extremely over the top. you can shoot terrorists, aliens and satan himself
darkest dungeon: roguelike dying simulator
guacamelee: metroidvania where you play as a wrestler
left 4 dead 2: zombies
monaco: stealth/heist game. has co-op too
pony island: horror game, pretty short though
rogue legacy: roguelike action platformer, though you keep upgrading your dudes
undertale: you know what undertale is, right?
battleblock and DD were already towards the top of my shortlist, broforce i have, guacamelee looks rlycool, l4d2 is kind of eh for me, pony island i already watched a playthrough, undertale i refuse to play on principle of it being too popular, will check out monaco and rogue legacy

Sacrifice is an old game. Good story, good replayability, good voice acting. Graphics did not age well, gameplay has its moments. Would recommend it to everybody. €5
Psychonauts is a slightly younger title, cute 3d platformer, nice level design, probably a modern classic? €1.50
Bastion, talking about modern classics, is a top down 2d hack and slash game with an awesome narrator and ambiance, goes for €3.75
Braid, 2d platformer-time manipulation puzzler, with a nice story. €4.50
Spacechem, one of Zachtronics many games, all in the same genre (and I don't know which is best rated, so maybe have a look), programming style puzzles, this time with machines that make molecules. Loved it: €2.50
Spec Ops: The Line. It plays like any other FPS, but it's not like them. I'm not a FPS player myself, but this campaign blew me away. Properly daring, properly awesome. Like sacrifice, it got great reviews and less great sales numbers. €4
i def have some blindspots in my library
sacrifice i played a while ago, psychonauts and braid i'd forgotten about but wanted to get ages ago, bastion i def might pick up, spacechem sounds lit, spec ops i can play round my mates

mykonian's disclaimer also applies here. The descriptions below may or may not consist of trolling.
Age of Empires II HD Edition - wololo
Her Story - what you get if you took a criminal investigation and turned it into a jigsaw puzzle
Papers, Please - legit bureaucracy/paperwork simulator
Technobabylon - gorgeous cyberpunk pixelated adventure game
To the Moon - tissues strongly recommended
WOLOLO
her story is fantastic, already played it but it's a top tier game for me, papers please is a rly cool concept and i love it as a game but not something i fancy playing myself, technobabylon sound great, thats on my list, already played to the moon
