Ancient Art of War. Really old RTS where food, morale and exhaustion are all-important. You'd think it'd be a micro-management nightmare but it plays smoothly. Unfortunately not multiplayer and never remade or even imitated, for some reason.

The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom
The Swapper: 2d side scrolling puzzle game where you clone your character and swap consciousness between the clones.
Life is Strange - At least the original, the sequels are not quite as unique. It's an interactive story (though still in 3D) where you can rewind time to redo conversations, effectively making "save scumming" a core mechanic. The designers use the fact that you deliberate on your own actions quite well. The story is also pretty unique, but unfortunately there isn't a good way to explain why without spoiling any of it.
Inscryption - On the surface, this seems like your run of the mill card game. But once you get familiar with the mechanics, some other genres start blending with it.
Edit: Should also add:
A Normal Lost Phone - The premise is that you find a phone that someone has lost, and you can use it to slowly uncover the story of the person who lost it and why.
Soul Reaver comes to my mind. Old game but i think it‘s still holds up.
