RockPaperShotgun is my go-to, but I also tend to use 'sorting' features in stores and stuff.

For instance, on steam, you can filter by tags you like, like 'co-op' or 'base building' or whatever, then sort by review score to float the best to the top. And sometimes there are external sites like GamePasta (for Gamepass) with similar features for other platforms:

I may have better advice if there's a certain 'type' of game you like. For instance, do you prefer coop with mates or an SO or something? Do you like RTSes or sandbox games or what?
