Slice and Dice (mobile available) - incredibly good indie game if you like roguelikes and basic RPGs. you get 5 characters in your party and play through 20 levels. each character has a die which has their attacks and can be leveled up and upgraded with items. TONS of replay value and the full game is only $7. if you dk if you'll like it there's a demo version.
Night in the Woods - this isn't new but it's well regarded. visual novel with platformer elements. with bonus social justice/labor organizing themes! also spooky/halloween/autumn themed if that's your jam.
Oxenfree - spooky visual novel about some friends who get stuck on a haunted island. has a few small puzzles and dialogue options and stuff. i have been told that different stuff happens when you play it a second time. :O
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime - if you have a friend who can sit and play with you, this is a really fun and adorable co-op game where you steer a space ship around a 2D map and fight monsters. the characters are all cute woodland animals.
