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?

I believe Cyberpunk 2077 is a fantastic experience going in blind.

Especially Phantom Liberty. I went in blind, made decisions, lived to regret them, fucked up everything, and loved every minute of it.

Playing through Phantom Liberty now. So far it’s a breath of fresh air in a save I’ve been playing on and off since launch.

There's a couple of quests that have a time limit, and it's easy to not be aware since all the others can be completed whenever. I only knew beforehand because I read about it, and I'm glad I did, because letting them unintentionally expire has really bad outcomes.

Also I got a mod for infinite respecs. Otherwise I would worry about wasting finite consumable points and never spend them.
