A game that really moved me similar to this game was: The Beginner's Guide.
It has a very different tone and there's no gameplay, but it is one of the strongest narrative games i know. It's also really short. But there's so much message in it. I loved every second of it!
It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but check out Dropsy. Despite the weird appearance, it's about finding love and acceptance in the face of adversity, and like Brothers it's told without any words at all.
Very different styles but I found Night in the Woods and Oxenfree to be two great games with stories that pack a bit of a punch,
You may want to check out The Vanishing of Ethan Carter.

Likeable characters, great art style and simply among the few games that really moved me.

Samorost 3 has a great story although it's not really a dramatic game but more on the lighter, humorous side. Amazing graphics and score though! Looks like it has real moss and rocks + the puzzles vary from easy to hard. It's a fairly short game but still worth the buy. The developer, Amanita Design, has created many many acclaimed titles so take a peek at their work if it interests you. They have a few free ones on their website as well (Original Samorost Flash game, Samorost 2 that's also buyable on Steam, Machinarium Demo). You don't need to know what happens in the first or the second Samorost game to know what's up with the third one but if you want to know a little more about the silent space gnome protagonist and his previous adventures, I also suggest checking those out.

If you're into murder mysteries and some darker themes I also suggest the Cube Escape / Rusty Lake series. So far the developers have made 2 full-length games that are on Steam. The others you can find free on the Internet. The games are made in Flash which is a bit old-fashioned but the continuous story is very interesting. You don't necessarily have to know the Cube Escape / Rusty Lake lore to play any of the games but starting from the free games would be adviced and maybe check the wiki if you want to know in which order to play the games in. I personally don't really know the order of the games but they're still fun.

Then there's The Dream Machine series which goes from dark/horror to sci-fi to drama to absurb... Very interesting as well and once again the graphics, which were made from clay, are amazing. It's a pretty long series and the DLC chapters might cost quite a bit when put together but it's a great one with tricky puzzles at times and lots of character dialogue. It just gets a bit on the, well, dreamy side at times so be aware of that.

These are all point'n'clickers but definetly not bad ones! Highly suggest them :)

This game reminds me of Journey in a way and I think you can get it from Steam now too? It's a beautiful PS3 title and you can play it with other people (one, to be exact, someone who joins you at random). It's a no-dialogue, sceneric exploring action game where what you see is basically the story (the walls, some cutscenes). Quite fun and you get to be in control of the camera in that one as well. And hey, more buttons to press than in this one!


TL;DR: Samorost 3, Rusty Lake aka Cube Escape series, The Dream Machine (all point'n'clickers) and Journey (PS3-to-Steam title).
