High Art Games

A list of mostly recent artistic games specially crafted to convey strong messages with their writing (e.g. The Beginner's Guide, BioShock, Deus Ex), game design (e.g. Catherine, Passage, Moirai), or cinematography/environment (e.g. Virginia, Control, Proteus). I'll add more as I remember them.
