For me, in no particular order:

  • Firewatch
  • This War of Mine
  • What Remains of Edith Finch
  • Gone Home
  • Papers Please
  • Doki Doki Literature Club
  • I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream
  • I’m playing Ratchet and Clank: A Rift Apart and it’s doing a good job of making me feel ways about stuff.

    I really loved Cyberpunk 2077 for this, too.

    Rocket League also makes me feel emotions. Mostly anger.

    And just to add something probably not as well known, Lil Gator Game. For a game specifically for children, I did not expect the heavy hitting emotional story it provided.
