Games That Deserve More Attention

There are loads of unsung games out there-which games do you think don't receive the attention they deserve? Personally I think people should check out A Plague Tale: Innocence because the story is outstanding, a breath of fresh air in a medium of me-too.

Until Dawn
Dark souls 1- i think this type of genre has been neglected for a while but it’s not your typical edgy setting.Realistic game mechanics as well as a plot which questions your morality in a non dramatic sense and ponders the futility of rectitude.Characterised as hard but I just see it as being less beginner friendly but isn’t harder than your typical game.9.4/10

I disagree, Wild Hunt has received enormous critical acclaim and is one of the highest scoring games on Metacritic and is adored by fans everywhere-not really "hidden" at all.

All of the games posted are triple A games... not exactly 'unsung'...
Rimworld, Tynan the developer is a really great guy that helps the modders with any issues they are having. He understands that they are what makes his game sell so well.

He has said it will never go on sale because it would be unfair on the people who funded the project in the first place. It rare to see such ethical trading in the games industry.

It isn't easy getting a 10/10 on Steam.

You're right but A Plague Tale isn't triple A-and I think Until Dawn will likely be overlooked compared to behemoth PS exclusives like Horizon, God of War, Spider-Man and Days Gone.

Detroit: Become Human

Detroit is triple A and has received its share of plaudits-the real unsung games aren't even being mentioned in this forum, but if you think huge triple A games with huge marketing campaigns qualify as unsung then that's up to you.
Whatever you do, don't play Factorio.

After 6163 hours, I've finally managed to wean myself off it. Although, the lure... the lure...

Souls games have received a lot of praise and attention, with all due respect-they aren't unsung at all.

A lot of decent indie games have been free on Epic

I can't think of many that I think deserve more attention (as I probably haven't found them myself) but Horace has a rich story and is a well made platform game that really doesn't have much attention (unlike something like Undertale)

Don't you think Telltale's The Walking Dead has enough exposure? Automata is brilliant as is Isolation.
