Basically what the title says. I've only played two games like this so far (Silent Hill 2 and OMORI) and am looking for more.

Could be games, ROM hacks, mods of existing games, etc.

EDIT: So many great suggestions! Getting a bit overwhelmed by how many there are, so I'm going to need to find a way to put this in some kind of list with an order to play the games in. By all means, keep 'em coming, though!

Life is Strange

Life is Strange: Before the Storm

I was going through a really rough time when I played both of those games. There was something in Before the Storm that I know was coming but I cried anyways, multiple times. I’ve never been that invested in a game before and I don’t know if I’ll ever be again.

That's some high praise. "Ever" is a very long time.

Yes I went into that game knowing only that choices matter and nothing else. It was a huge eye opener to mental health. I’m very tempted to get a tattoo of the spiral because I want to make it resemble when I made a choice to stay alive. I am in a much better place now and that game has really helped me.
