Shadow of the Colossus

A young man carries a dead girl to a forbidden land and strikes a bargain: kill sixteen colossi and she might live. There are no other enemies, no towns, no side quests. You ride your horse across miles of empty ground, find each giant, climb it like a moving mountain, and find the spot to drive the sword in. The 2018 version is Bluepoint rebuilding the 2005 PS2 game from scratch, same design, far better light and scale. Each kill feels less like a victory than something you should not have done.
