Silksong, but I put that on hold as I think I hit my skill ceiling in Act 3.
In the meantime, I'm playing The Seance at Blake Manor which has been really fun and is perfect for the Deck.

Son of A Liche by J Zachary Pike. It's the second book in the Dark Profit Saga. A friend of mine had recommended I read the first book (Orconomics) for years, and I finally got around to it. I'm enjoying the series so far, but I thought it was a standalone novel and was looking for a fun one-off read, so I probably wouldn't have started it if I knew it was a series. The series satirizes fantasy tropes in the context of an excessively capitalist society built around a "hero-for-hire" industry. It's got very tongue in cheek humor, and I think if you enjoy a lot of the more recent DnD media (Vox Machina and the like), you'd appreciate it.
I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys point and click adventure games. The time mechanic can seem a bit constraining at first, but unless you're clicking on everything or exhausting every conversation topic, I think you'd be able to figure out like 80% of the mysteries just by pulling at relevant threads. The only advice I'd offer is to remember how to get to all of the journals and notes you collect because the game doesn't have a traditional inventory system, and there were a couple of times I forgot about information I'd previously collected that's needed to solve some puzzles because it's a little buried. It does a great job of establishing the atmosphere, and if you're in the mood for a creepy mystery, this is an all-timer.
