Rocket League is pretty great (pure ~~kino~~ludo), but the best game mode (DropShot) has been sidelined by the devs repeatedly, even though it is the most unique and "easy to learn - hard to master" mode. There is also a lot of toxic players in the community, and the moderation is pretty slow and often lacking.
Dungeons of the Endless is an ideal way to drain yourself of excess executive function energy, but the steep learning curve means that you have little understanding of the trade-off decisions you are making until you've played and failed many times. It takes a while to understand the game, and it's kind of a painful process for a while.
Red Faction: Guerrilla is a mostly about using tools of destruction effectively, with some other open-world generic tasks bolted on. The driving and shooting are good enough, but mostly just barely. It would have been much more interesting if it included some building/fortification mechanics.
DEFCON is pretty cool, but it has a distinct lack of Posadism that feels like a huge lost opportunity.
