Read dead redemption 1. A masterpiece.
Hotel Dusk.
The end of the game blew my mind out of the water in a way no other twist has ever quite captured. It might have been the mental space I was in at the time too. Whatever the case, I will always remember the first time I played it.
I also wish I had played the first Golden Sun before the second, so if I could put a duology and that caveat in there? Definitely those two.
Star Control 2
The Binding of Isaac.
This is the eternal game of ever. It is balanced, fair, excellent feedback (time to win), super I'm depth unlocks, one of the best meta games. Take the time to learn the basics and this game is infinite.
It is balanced, fair
Mmmm Delirium would disagree
For retro games my answer is probably Yoshi's Island. If you include modern games I'd likely go with Hollow Knight. If VNs count then Echo.
