By posting another question here I realized, that I really enjoy games which are ‘short’ (Play start to finish in around one hour) and have lots of replay value.

My favorites are Street Fighter 2, Contra (NES), Slay the Spire, Guilty Gears, etc.

Any recommendations? I am looking especially for games that are hard but fair and have super tight controls (like Contra)

    Binding of Isaac would fit the bill. A single game takes between 30min-1hr, but there are dozens of endings, about 30 characters and about 900 unlocks (every ending with every character unlocks a new item, and then there are many unlocks that aren’t tied to that). It took me about 1500hrs to 100% the game and I still boot it up fairly often.

    I think general you are looking for roguelikes.
