For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.
Grid-based, dungeon crawler RPG (a mouthful, I know). The most recent titles in this genre I remember are the Mary Skelter trilogy, but the first game is about 10 years old already.
Legend of Grimrock 1 and 2 are good ones. I’m sure you’ve come across those ones though.
I may be in the completely wrong genre, but have you played pillers of eternity? I played a few hours of the second one and thought it was great.

I think he means stuff like this.
Yup, like this!
The first ones? Maybe the first ones you played.
Just checked. Initial release was in 2016. Maybe I confused it with a previous title from IF/CH.
I do believe they thought you were talking about the first games in the genre not the first game in series you mentioned.
Oh. Oopsie. e.e"
Gridders my beloved. This curator on steam might be of use.
Hi there! I saw someone mentioning this game on Cohost and was reminded of this old-ass post of yours

I’m not sure if there’s an english version yet (Its still in Early Access) but I think that’s your type of game?
I don’t mind necro as long as it isn’t obvious spam, so don’t worry. =D
(besides, Reddit also had a lot of this, where pertinent replies would only appear a long time after the posts were made)
But thanks! The game looks pretty interesting, going by the promotional materials, and the store page also mentions it has both English and Japanese, so likely at least texts will be translated.
