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'm gonna go with Skyrim, the more unoptimized and aimless your playthrough is, the more fun you'll have.

Just started playing Skyrim for the first time last week.
My character is optimized for ending fights before they begin – by liquifying the opponent's noggin' with one swing of her 2-handed warhammer.
Other than that, she travels the world collecting ingredients to cook, brew and smith stuff with.
I suspect that's not an optimal build, but it's fun.

Perfect, I wouldn't change a thing.
