Into The Breach -> Tactical Breach Wizards plays similarly (tactical game with undo and pushing stuff) but is deeper and has great writing.
FTL -> I don't have any recs that have similar gameplay, but you can get cool space vibes for free - Escape Velocity: Nova is abandonware, and The Ur-Quan Masters is open source.
Slay The Spire -> Slice & Dice is vaguely similar but it's dice. And also like deeper, more challenging, sicko shit.
Balatro -> There's a whole wave of games trying to be a Balatro But right now, and I don't think any have really gotten there, but Merge Maestro is cheap and has a little bit of the feel.
Monster Train -> I never actually played this, so it's time to plug UFO 50, the game that's 50 games in one. Several of them (Bug Hunter, Avianos, Party House) are up your alley from what you listed. Others may be.
Dead Cells -> If you like hard combat-heavy platformers you should get into Hollow Knight. The sequel, Silksong, is harder, but also even better.
Good rec, I hadn't seen this before. It's fun
