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?

Undertale, but at this point you’d have to have lived in a cave for the last decade to not know most of the spoilers by now.
I have heard the name but don’t know what it’s about, I’ll look into it. Thanks !

Well, apparently I have!
The only thing I’ve heard about Undertale so far is that it is supposed to be good.
That’s all Ive heard too. I tried playing it but the combat was weird. Kinda boring to me so I never advanced further.
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.
Yeah that happened to me. Never finished it and wonder why it’s so loved.
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.
Same. Fehlt like a very early game experiment.
Undertale is such a bolt of lightning. It both depends on its player having experience with traditional JRPG and having no fucking clue what it is. But when the conditions line up, as it did for many people at release, it was such a master fully crafted experience. But even the slightest amount of “it’s good because…” really siphons part of the experience away.
Spoiler: There are high jinks, low jinks, dangers, puzzles, capers, japers, being captured, and other sorts of fun activities in this game.
