You have RPG games, rogue-likes, VNs, puzzles - literally all the kinds of games in existence are right there on Itch. It’s exactly like back when Flash was popular, only this time it’s more secure and less resource hungry (most of the time).
Hmm on second glance you might be right. Still, I find it hard to find any good web games, there doesn’t seem to be a rating system (perhaps for good?)
My general approach is to find any gamejam (if you just browse the free games lists many will happen to be from gamejams and link to whatever gamejam they’re from) and look through the games that resulted from it. Gamejam games tend to be high quality short experiences
I personally don’t play on Itch that much, but I just had a looksie today and found something that seems to be the spiritual child of Trackmania: https://kodub.itch.io/polytrack.
Nonsense.

Any standout games you can recommend?
