Great game for many. Specifically if you:

  • Don't mind when a game has a lot of text
  • Enjoy when a game does not give you direct goals, but gives you "ways to find the interesting stuff".
  • Are not easily frustrated by things that you can fail, given that you can attempt them again quickly, or move on to something else
  • Enjoy sticking with/returning to puzzles, even if you don't know when you might be able to solve them
  • Are excited by the idea of getting in a spaceship, taking off, and a minute later landing on another planet and walking around

It's hard to talk about Outer Wilds without spoiling anything. It's a mystery game, but you might not know that even within a few hours of play. Do you like solving mysteries?

Honestly is in my top 3, but I have understood why some people have bounced off of it.

You liked OMORI! Have you played Earthbound or Mother 3 btw? Not pc games, but worth keeping an eye on.

Other games in the same niche of "quirky rpg with story" are LISA and Undertale.

Just because you have similar tastes to me, I'll throw some games I liked. Outer Wilds is a space adventure game, with a pretty deep story. Became one of my favorite games ever made.

I like factory games like Satisfactory and Factorio.
