As the title suggests: I've had it with open worlds with dozens of things to do and checklists to complete. What are your favorite, delightfully simple, linear games?

This question is sparked by the discussion in the Final Fantasy thread, were I disclosed that I actually kind of like XIII because of its linearity. Other linear favorites of mine include: Half-Life series, Portal series, Uncharted series, some COD campaigns, Undertale, Journey, Super Mario 3D World, Plague Tale, Spec Ops: The Line

A shout out to A Way Out in the co-op catergory!

People listed Mirrors Edge, and I would like to also recommend it. It might take some time to adjust to the controls but it's fun! I replay it a lot. I've lost count but I've been replaying it since release.

Titanfall 2 was a fun campaign. Also cool movement mechanics.

One game that I think got average ish scores but I enjoyed was Pneuma: Breath of Life. Idk why but I thought the puzzles were kinda fun and it was pretty enough.

(Kinda visual novel ish) AI Somnium files was fun.
