What Indie hidden gems do you recommend? (lemmy.one)

Ive been trying some indie developed games this past year, more than ever and I'm in awe what lone devs or small teams can accomplish.

So, what are some games that you think don't have the recognition they deserve, need a bigger audience or you would like the community to try.

I myself for example have played Monster Sanctuary, which at this point I think is not that hidden anymore and played a rougelike game called Elona, haven't played RimWorld or Dwarf Fortress but I might in the future.

Sorry if a similar post already exists haven't checked.

I suppose it depends how you think of "hidden". In my mind, if you follow awards and gaming news, you're already in a fairly small niche of well-informed gamers. To people who don't stay on that pulse, marketing budgets and cultural moments can largely determine what's known or not known. Most of these didn't get much marketing, and few (like Undertale) had a cultural moment I was aware of. But I didn't include games like Hades which I love but kinda thought got a bit of both.

Ultimately, of course, you're right and I just took advantage of the question to list a bunch of my favorite games. ๐Ÿ˜‚
