I think everyone has at least one game that maybe is not that popular or maybe even not that good, but still is dearest to you. Post them.
Here's Black Moon Chronicles, admittedly rather average Total War-like rts with amazing soundtrack and atmosphere.

Fatal Labyrinth (Genesis). It was the first console roguelike but I didn't even know what that was and only bought it because it looked like a Phantasy Star style RPG based on the screenshots. Little did I know. But I played it enough that it became one of my favorite games despite its limitations.

Requiem: Avenging Angel, one of many shooter of the late 90's although a pretty cool one. A big arsenal of angelic powers alongside guns is for sure something that make it stands out among other fps but I also really dig the futuristic dystopian look.

Descent is my all time favorite game. I would say that it qualifies as obscure since I am the only one I know who has ever enjoyed it. Some people can't even handle watching me play it without getting sick lol. I never really see it discussed online much either. Besides a small group of hardcore fans that are still around. Fun as shit and incredibly immersive for a 30 year old game.When it came out it was pretty far ahead of it's time to, with the 6DoF movement and what not.

A game the like of Commandos and Desperadoes series, the type I like to call isometric stealth games. There's combat when you preform slashes by drawing them without your mouse, but it's rather rudimentary. Definitely you'll prefer to take things unnoticed and make use of various skills of your characters (admittedly ones much better than others). I think it looks pretty good even today. Love all the various castles you visit multiple times in different missions. I beat it and even got the special party ending for gathering every crown jewels.

I picked up darklands from a $5 bin in 1994. An RPG set in the holy roman empire in 15th century, but with some fantasy elements mixed in. An early open world game and was a lot of fun back then.

Ecstatica. It would always get overlooked in the AitD to RE pipeline for the genre, but the deathtraps and persistent werewolf were awesome and its designs and sense of humor were great. Now I just see people discover it on shittube and meme on its visuals and rendered buldges.
