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?

Hollow Knight

Warframe

Noita

The warframe lore is pretty complex, but its also great. Especially the way the game tells you the story. Can only recommend going into it blind.

I don't think you understood the assignment...

[–] OlPatchy2Eyes@slrpnk.net 9 points 6 months ago

I think they're all games that seriously benefit from not knowing the lore or mechanics beforehand... you didn't even contribute aside from being snide to me so how about you explain what I did wrong?
