Anything that has natural stop-off points pretty much.

Vampire Survivors is my most highest played one based on hours though =) You can play it with the sound and most of your brain off, so you can still listen to what's going on in the TV show you're "watching".

GTA V runs perfectly on it, I played through Quantum Break. And as soon as I get Heroic Launcher (Epic + Gog games) working, I'll start with Witcher 3 and CP2077.

I've been appreciating it for games that don't have a natural stop-off point. Unlike on my computer, I'm perfectly content to pause the game, sleep the device, and then pick it back up again later. The ability to turn it off without losing your state is a given on devices like the Switch, but it feels like a really important accomplishment on a PC where I'm often hesitant to even sleep the machine while I have a game open.
