Which games blow your mind, but only if you know nothing about them in advance?

Best examples I can think of are:

  • Outer Wilds
  • Doki Doki Literature Club
  • The Stanley Parable

What are yours?

If you're referring to being blind to the plot specifically (but not what style of game it is), then my list is:

  • outer wilds
  • hades
  • disco elysium

Gods Will Be Watching and The Red Strings Club

Spec Ops: The Line

Dark Souls and Return of the Obra Dinn have already been mentioned, but I'll also recommend Universal Paperclips. These also happen to be my favorite 3 games.

Subnautica I guess

Sorry if these have been said already. Note I suck at gaming and couldn't finish either but I enjoyed my time with them:

Animal Well and Lorelei and the Laser Eyes
