There were games on sale I bought on impulse that I’ve dumped plenty of hours into.

Super Mario Odyssey - bought it while I was waiting for Tears of the Kingdom to release, replayed it at least three times. Same with Mario + Rabbids.

Lots of indie games - Slime Rancher, Cat Quest II, both Cattails games, Sprout Valley. All in the replay pile and some of my favorites.

Got my money’s worth and then some, plus I wouldn’t have given them a chance if I was hesitant ¯_(ツ)_/¯

For me that was dwarf fortress. Insane game bought on a whim!

I got a silly Dutch game called Wuppo: Definitive Edition on sale for £1 a few years ago. Not sure why I impulsively got it but I ended up loving it so much
