Rain is not an indie game, it was co-developed by SCE Japan Studio and presumably completely funded by Sony.
OT: The Pinball Arcade, The Book of Unwritten Tales, The Banner Saga, Primordia, The Blackwell series, Memoria, Gemini Rue, Fez, World of Goo, Machinarium, Train Fever, Banished.
I'm not sure if every game I listed can be counted as indie, but I think they're "independent enough" when it comes to development. All of them turned out better than I thought.
Biggest surprise to me was The Pinball Arcade, a fantastic effort from devoted pinball fans.
