On that note, I highly recommend Papers, Please[1].

It's a one-person project as well, and a truly amazing work of art.

Played it with my partner to get all the endings and achievements; it's been an amazing experience.

What I loved about Papers, Please is that it was actually a proper, fun game. Depressing too, but fun. I rarely come across 'art project' style games that pull their weight game-wise.

It really does have excellent gameplay.

Although I wouldn't call the game depressing - I found the satire funny as hell.
