Been sitting on this one for over a year. I really enjoyed Tunic, and it seems Outer Wilds is a similar experience, relying on the player not knowing what’s coming.
The solution to the puzzles are extremely clever and you’re given just enough hints to be able to solve them, but this game demands your attention and every bit of your concentration to be able to fit it all together. The payoff is massive though, the final 30-40 minutes is one of the most memorable and emotional moments I have ever had playing video games.
It’s a great game, but the hoops you have to jump through in the last loop to get the “good” ending are a massive pita. After my 6th or 7th try, I got burned out, uninstalled, and moved on to something else. At some point, I’ll go back and give it another shot.
Outer Wilds, for example, is a game you can only play once.
That has not stopped me from downloading a randomizer mod to squeeze more hours out of it.

Still haven’t played this one through, just downloaded it for like the third time.
I don’t know why it hasn’t hooked me, it’s just the sort of game I should enjoy.
