Games with interesting ideas and/or themes

If anyone sees this list, I'd love recommendations for games that do something interesting with the medium or just have cool themes.

A very loose list in the sense that the games don't have to have much in common with each other, I just like cool and interesting games.

God of War
God of War
God of War Ragnarök
God of War Ragnarök
Final Fantasy VII Remake
Final Fantasy VII Remake
The execution is a little rough around the edges, but I still love how this plays with the idea of what a remake can be.
Inscryption
Inscryption
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII - Reunion
Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII - Reunion
The ending.
A Plague Tale: Innocence
A Plague Tale: Innocence
Venba
Venba
Deltarune
Deltarune
Still cooking but everything we've seen so far is super cool and I love how it subverts your expectations that would come from Undertale.
Florence
Florence
Before Your Eyes
Before Your Eyes
The epitome of this list. Uses the medium of video games and a unique mechanic to tell a powerful and emotional story.
Ring Fit Adventure

This is a great list! I have [a very similar one] with almost no overlap! (And I actually stole Inscryption from your list because it's a great pick hahaha)
