I didn't think Journey was a walking simulator, but it was mentioned here, and I liked it quite a bit. I also don't think Death Stranding counts, but if it does, it's another strong contender. Firewatch is another game that feels too interactive to be a walking simulator in my opinion, and it was pretty good, but I liked both Journey and Death Stranding better.
The only pure walking simulator I think I've played is Dear Esther, and I didn't really like it. It had its redeeming qualities, but I wasn't exactly a fan. It's definitely not something I'd like to call my favourite, although as the only pure walking simulator I've played, it kind of gets that role too.
