BT:If you purchase The Stanley Parable, which you should because it’s very clever, you’re missing the best experience in the entire game if you don’t also choose to download something which is not actually in the game at all. That may sound a bit odd, but if that’s too odd, I don’t think this is your type of game anyway.

I think Inscryption is the best game on that list. PT and Returnal i would offer. Returnal deserves a spot over some of the listed games. Especially after chapter 3. Maybe even Alice MR? Death Stranding? Kojima all together. To much smaller degree Dead Space. I'm spitballing.
I didn't play Thumper enough to see beyond the visual spectacle. Curious choice.
I'd add FEAR and RE7 (when Ethan starts getting visions, especially in the boat) to that list.
Edit: and Here They Lie
Only makes me think of gatcha loot crate game specifically built to play your mind into becoming an addict.

Ever since it was released as a mod for Half-Life 2, The Stanley Parable has been a cult phenomenon.
