In the rawest sense of it, I've found it to be large empty spaces that serve as a time capsule, usually with doorways or openings of some kind. It represents a contrast between the space provided and it's lonely status, which a lot of people see as beautiful. Abandoned Malls were typical fare for a while for this sort of art, especially over the room to tug at local nostalgia to make the point stronger. There's even music remix artists that tried to make it a sound filter genre on Youtube, there's playlists of stuff under "Empty Mall Remix" aiming for the same asethetic as a mood, although a lot tend to appreciate it more for the silence:
Vinesauce for a bit was enjoying exploring these sorts of games, where it's just a designed map for you to walk through for a vibe:
