I'm fairly critical, so there's not too many on my list, but the biggest one is that I liked Quest 64 (somehow) when I was younger.
I also love La Mulana 1&2, along with Deadly Premonition, though those are more "cult hits" aka critical failures that 'widely disliked'. But, I'd definitely hesitate to recommend any of them to someone unless I thought they'd be into it.
Is that the one reviewed in Ross's Game Dungeon?
Oh, different name, but this was still a fun watch.

That one kinda bums me out because Ross is describing an incredible game there and I want someone to make it
