62. Concrete Genie

Looking back at some of this list, I feel like I ranked Concrete Genie a little too high, but I did really enjoy it. It follows a young, lonely artist kid whose grafitti creatures come to life, which leads to some very cool mechanics as you lead the creatures along the walls. It's very wholesome, the creatures are precious, and I really dig how the neon art shows up visually in the mundane, dreary world.

61. Octodad

Octodad is a tough one to rank, because while mechanically it's a little rough at times, conceptually I fell in love with it right away. Octodad is about as indie as an indie game comes, just being made by a few college students that didn't even have a developer name to throw on it. It has the loose, intentionally difficult controls of games like Surgeon Simulator and Grow Home and applied them to a genuinely genius idea: a man trying to do very simple tasks for his family around his suburban home, but that man is actually an octopus in disguise. It's genuinely endearing and funny in a way many games in this specific sub-subgenre don't manage to pull off.

And that completes this tier, leaving just 4 tiers left.
