Love them both to death. The moody sterile atmosphere of the first, the clever narrative and humour of the second, the creative and fun mechanics and puzzles of both.

🎮Immortality-more horror/mystery. you scrub through footage of a movie star and things get weird, fast. really unique storytelling, great acting. don't want to say anything else to avoid any spoilers!
Return of the Obra Dinn-detective/puzzle. you move through time and memories on the once lost merchant ship Obra Dinn and uncover a wild and twisted story. super detailed, extremely addictive in my experience, really unique graphics. it's like an interactive comic book with the most satisfying reveals and discoveries.
Honorable mentions: Strange Horticulture, Gris (all time fav platformer), Void Crew (more of a strategy game than a story game but fun to play with friends)

Criminally underrated. Perfect blend of engaging puzzles and cozy atmosphere and also I have maternal feelings for Quill.

👾in agreement with mouse nitw soup rema see
also agree with them that definitely limbo or inside will scratch the little nightmares itch, arguably playdead's games are a big inspiration for little nightmares.
depending on what you're into (more story or more gameplay heavy) for story. i cannot recommend "what remains of edith finch" enough. just a true gem and some of the best of interactive storytelling
for gameplay i love the witness, hi fi rush, and neon white. all very different, but maybe you'll find something you'll like
for a mix if both, disco elysium. dialogue HEAVY, but based in like ttrpg systems, it's really fun. REALLY long though, like maybe put aside some time to crack that one open lol

Specifically the Earth Angel musical number, when Silvestri’s score swells and George kisses Lorraine. Makes me cry without fail.

congrats if you can listen to this without thinking of Joan Cusack in School of Rock. What a tune.
