PvE leads to one of the most non-toxic multiplayer gaming communities (though of course you'll have the occasional idiot/griefer). Replayability is bar none--on par with Minecraft--as every cave is procedurally generated, except for Deep Dives, which are a weekly challenge. Each dwarf has their own playstyle that takes time to learn and master, and once you have spent the time to master them, you are rewarded with promotions. There's so much to unlock, collect, and test. Not only do you have the guns themselves to unlock, you have upgrades for each of them to unlock and test. You also have what are called "overclocks"--which are like super upgrades--different cosmetics for your dwarves and pickaxe, as well as a menu of different beers. If you're looking for a chill game to play after a long day of work, you can spend your time playing on hazard level 3 or below; if you're looking for a challenge and/or chaos, you can play hazard level 4 or 5. This game truly has something for everyone, including a thriving modding community if you end up getting bored with the base game. Definitely worth picking up at MSRP, and a steal on sale.

This game is gorgeous both visually and narratively. It is as challenging or easy as you like it to be. The boss fights are interesting, although the chase scenes are frustrating because most of the chase scenes just rely on remembering what parts of the environment collapse/fall because it's hard to react to many of the environment changes through the chase scenes. There are a lot of interesting movement mechanics, which are a lot of fun to string together. If you liked Ori and the Blind Forest, you will love Ori and the Will of the Wisps.

This is by far one if the best games I've playing in a long time.

I'm not normally one for single player games, and I'll admit that it was the art style that got me to buy the game, but Firewatch is so much more than just the visual art. Firewatch is like a movie that you're a part of and interacting with instead of passively consuming. There are so many clues that can lead you to multiple ideas of what's happening, but I, personally, was very caught off guard by the end; I just hadn't considered it a possibility.

This is a game that anyone who enjoys good story will love. I will admit that $20 for the game is a little steep if you only play through it once, as the story only lasts a couple hours, but if you either play it multiple times, or pick it up on sale (it's often on sale for $5 during the large sales of the year), I would 110% recommend picking it up.
