I used to love discovering unique and innovative indie games on the web when flash was a thing. I still find some on steam, but it's harder for me to just hop on like flash games since I have to think of whether or not it's worth buying and downloading a game.
So which brings me to my question and transparent attempt at outsourcing my search: has anyone played any innovative or interesting indie games recently?

I'm taking a break from games to work on an NES harness so agents can play some of the games I did growing up.

It's an homage to old text-based games, but more story-driven and with a few modern twists.
