This could mean visually stunning, mechanically elegant, narratively sharp, or just so well put together it makes you want to applaud the developers like a polite theatre audience. Which game feels especially well-crafted to you, and what exactly did it do right?

ok dating myself a bit here:
Star Control 2, a little bit surprised they haven't remade it given the propensity modern art (are games art?) has for rehashing.
