I wouldn't put Blasphemous in the same category as Gris or Monument Valley, but it might technically be in the same category as Neva. However, jn my opinion, that game sucks. I'd recommend Hollow Knight above it.

I’ve tried Hollow Knight 3x now and given up on it. I just can’t get into it for some reason. Loved Ori and the Will of the Wisps. HK goes in the bucket with Outer Wilds, universally loved games that didn’t click for me.

It's a different genre but take a look at No Redt for the Wicked by the same studio that did Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will O the Wisps. It's an isometric souls-like game, so very different but absolutely well done. It was their passion project after the Ori games.

Yesss! I so wish I had picked that up during their launch sale when it was cheaper. I’ve been holding off cause of the comments while in Early Access but it looked phenomenal at launch. Seems like it just needs a bit of polish. It’s on my list for the next sale.
