The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth

A top-down roguelike action-adventure game and remake of the 2011 original, rebuilt from its Flash engine to enable expanded content and features. Players control Isaac through procedurally generated dungeon floors, using tears as projectiles to defeat monsters while collecting items that modify abilities and appearance in potentially powerful combinations. Runs end in permadeath, and each playthrough offers different layouts, items, and bosses. The game has received four expansions adding characters, floors, items, co-op multiplayer, modding support, and online play. Inspired by the biblical story of the same name and its designer's religious upbringing.

This War of Mine

In This War Of Mine you do not play as an elite soldier, rather a group of civilians trying to survive in a besieged city; struggling with lack of food, medicine and constant danger from snipers and hostile scavengers. The game provides an experience of war seen from an entirely new angle. The pace of This War of Mine is imposed by the day and night cycle. During the day snipers outside stop you from leaving your refuge, so you need to focus on maintaining your hideout: crafting, trading and taking care of your survivors. At night, take one of your civilians on a mission to scavenge through a set of unique locations for items that will help you stay alive. Make life-and-death decisions driven by your conscience. Try to protect everybody from your shelter or sacrifice some of them for longer-term survival. During war, there are no good or bad decisions; there is only survival. The sooner you realize that, the better.
