Games that you have to have to master instead of beat are the best type of games. gif related is an example.

Indeed, it's why retro's so fun to me really, how it used to have this somewhat arcade inspiration in it, where you'd often get sent back to the start. I used to dislike this as a kid, but I've grown and its something I appreciate now, replaying those first levels and getting better and better at them, it's so rewarding, and when you master them and, as a consequence of it, get more lives for later ones, it's enjoyable to get further and further, until you finally finish it and realize that this title that took you so many hours is actually 30 minutes long at most, and now you can breeze through it easily.

I loved this sense of growth, you could just force your way until the end, you had to learn, and you learned by failing over and over until something clicked and you felt like a genius, so satisfying.
