Basically what the title says. I've only played two games like this so far (Silent Hill 2 and OMORI) and am looking for more.

Could be games, ROM hacks, mods of existing games, etc.

EDIT: So many great suggestions! Getting a bit overwhelmed by how many there are, so I'm going to need to find a way to put this in some kind of list with an order to play the games in. By all means, keep 'em coming, though!

I cried at the ending of Outer Wields. Its was very beautiful. You need to search the story for yourself and complete little puzzle. At the end when you get the full story its just beautiful and scary.

Outer Wilds is my favorite game ever. Man what I would love to experience it all for the first time again. The ending definitely made me cry as well.

Outer Wilds makes you think about the nature of existence itself.

What a beautiful game.

Outer Wilds and Undertale are the only two games where I happened to coincidentally quit playing them right at a part where the narrative made sense. I died in outer wilds and I got stuck on the Sans fight in Undertale. I can't go into details without spoilers.

Oh that sounds like me with SUPERHOT. Got to the point in the game where it tells you to stop playing, so I did. Never went back to it.

I died in outer wilds

Who didn't, lol

Did you get a screen saying YOU DIED? 🤔

Not on my normal playthrough, but I did try every possible ending at least once. My comment was rather intended as a joke, because dying in various hilarious ways is sort of part of the game.
