I enjoy Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup played in the terminal with ASCII graphics. I wonder whether there are other hidden gems out there which don't get attention because they are "ugly"?

I never got far in it, but I didn't see anyone mention Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines. It's fun to explore a world where everyone has noticeable neck seams.

That game is literally so unhinged. If you enjoy KOTOR or Morrowind era RPGs then VTMB is a must play.

Zero shame in cheating to progress, some of that combat is like literally impossible. Awful game design.

Fucking iconic memorable characters story setting dialogue, everything that isn't gameplay is 11/10
