I can delete new document(1).txt if I paste my top 10 from the 2010's here:

Primordia
Heroine's Quest
The Dark Eye: Memoria
Deponia (series)
Quest for Infamy
Resonance
Legend of Hand
Piss
Samaritan Paradox
Gray Matter
A Golden Wake

That's 11 I guess, good decade. I think Golden Wake is Francisco's most interesting, so it squeezes in. Legend of Hand and Piss are underrated.
Missing quite a few : Gibbous, Technobabylon, Geminie Rue, Tiny & tall, Whisper of a Machine, arguably Detective Gallo.

What is even more criminal is the lack of The Dream Machine

Chapter 4?

I thought 3 was weaker. I loved 4 and 5, but I'm ashamed to say that I still haven't bought 6.

Good tips, the Codex does not disappoint, thank you. I put Gibbous and the Last Doors on my wishlist.
Only on Deponia I disagree, played parts 1 and 2 through without any big complaints, then came part 3. Disclaimer: possible story spoiler ahead:
I hate games where you are working towards a goal for 99 % of the game, possibly you are a hero for most of that time, then at the end all of a sudden you throw it all away. "Underlying theme of sacrifice" my ass, it makes me see in red, green and blue in succession. For me, the moral of the story of this game is: if you don't enjoy life, kill yourself.

Wadjet Eye games I have enjoyed, there might be still one or two I haven't played.
