Wow. I'm super impressed with all the suggestions here. I'll add a few of my own that haven't been mentioned yet.
Her Story - you query a police archive database for video clips, eventually revealing the plot. Kind of a mash between a murder mystery book with the pages out of order and Google. If you like it, check out Immortality
What Remains of Edith Finch - all you can do is walk around a very unusual house. The narrative reveals itself as you do so. That narrative is fantastical and heartbreaking and also very sweet.
Crawl - multiplayer game - you are all trying to escape a monster and trap filled dungeon. One of you is alive and the rest are spirits who can possess the monsters and traps. Any time a spirit kills the living player, they become the living player. Unique boss fight at the end where multiple spirits control parts of a huge boss monster.
Some of the CW Warnings for What Remains of Edith Finch (spoilers obviously):
spoiler
Drowning, child death, divorce / arguing, pregnancy, child birth complications / deathThanks for that! I actually had to put the game down for several months because my child had just been born and I couldn't handle one of the scenes in the game. It was heavily telegraphed, so I had time to stop the game before anything upsetting happened. And when I went back to it months later it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it might be. But yeah, it's a game about the death of many family members, told through metaphor and fanatical imagery.
