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?
(please no spoilers)
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.
Tbh, I played it for a few hours, didn’t like it and don’t understand all the fuss about it. Does it get good later?
I was at a point, where I was going through a cave with a castle in the background (it was a few years ago), it was probably some kind of riddle, but I couldn’t be bothered.
Is it worth going forward or did I see enough to just say “it’s not my kind of game”?
I have heard the name but don’t know what it’s about, I’ll look into it. Thanks !
I’ll look into it.
No, don’t!
Or at least don’t do anymore than choose your preferred platform and then buy it. Its available on Windows, Linux, Mac, PS, Xbox and Switch but not on Android or iOS.
Its a couple of bucks on steam at the moment, included in PSN if you do that, or full price everywhere else.
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.
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.
