Furi is really great! I love how they went the extra mile with your extra lives/boss phases, just a few animations and lines of dialogue add a lot to what would normally be dying and trying again.
Disco Elysium is one of about six games with writing I would consider "great". Best enjoyed slowly, without spoilers and with as much exploration as possible. I love how the "fail and retry later" mechanic ties into not only gameplay but the reccurring theme of the story and of the main character, such a simple concept but it feels really meaningful as a result.
