Any good games that break the mold - Lemmy.World

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?

Do you mean “games where you need to think a lot”, or “games that don’t hold the player’s hand”? Not familiar with the usage of the verb “to coddle” so I am not sure what is being asked.
