Smart Kobold is non-euclidean, and a compelling play. Fidel is worth a look also.

Smart Kobold (and other games by Jeff Lait, such as Vicious Orcs) have interesting, weird geometry indeed, but it is still "flat". A bunch of Euclidean square grids glued together. HyperRogue uses actual hyperbolic geometry, which is very different.
