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?

Well, apparently I have!
The only thing I've heard about Undertale so far is that it is supposed to be good.

[-] ZeroTwo@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago

That's all Ive heard too. I tried playing it but the combat was weird. Kinda boring to me so I never advanced further.

[-] Carighan@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Same. Fehlt like a very early game experiment.

[-] WarlordSdocy@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

It gets good by the end but yeah if you don't mesh with it early on it can be hard to get into and want to finish it.

[-] Hugin@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah that happened to me. Never finished it and wonder why it's so loved.

[-] WarlordSdocy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah I almost had that happen with me but I think I ended up watching someone play it. Still kind of regret it but at the same time probably wouldn't have finished it on my own otherwise and I atleast have Deltarune to look forward to now.

Yeah I didn't really get it. I did play Everhood though and that was much better.

It's good in a way that isn't really expected - the only thing I can say without spoiling is it did something really different with things that had been there a long time.
