For world building I would totally suggest Foundation. Also medieval dynasty comes to my mind.
Do you have any preferred games or examples to be more specific?
Yeah sorry, I ran into limits from where I'm posting (Mastodon).
Some reference points might be like Outer Wilds (nice mix of story & interaction) and going back a bit, games like Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee, Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, and Mega Man Legends.
Each have a certain sense of place and an enjoyable degree of interaction in terms of either roaming around or trying to figure out how to get around.
No need to be sorry, I also got it wrong. Would Firewatch and disco elysium suit you more?
I wouldn't say it's super similar to Mega Man, but Hollow Knight is a fantastic 2D platformer. Very heavy focus on combat, but little-to-no need to delve into stats. The lore is quite deep, but it's also pretty obscured and vague. Easy to miss on a single playthrough. Dunno if that would be a problem.
