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?

Now i wonder about the opposite. Games that you should never go in blind XD
Dwarf Fortress, probably.
That one’s tough. I went in blind when the steam version released and had a blast. The actual “game” part is not challenging once you figure out the basics. The fun of it is the stories that spring up that are mostly out of your control.
So, I’d say going in blind, but being open to asking questions or googling specific things is a great way to play it.
I think the Steam release definitely makes it easier, especially with the tutorial. I tried to get into the original version about 10 years back and let’s just say going in blind was a very different experience.

Most multiplayer games gain by already knowing mechanics, maps, characters, items, etc.
Path of Exile is one of those games where you never stop learning new things and the ceiling is always higher than you think it is.
If you‘re an achievement/trophy hunter, there‘s a lot of those cause of missables
Personally I’d say none because I’m a firm believer games tend to be more fun when you go in blind.
