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?

This is the worst example in this thread. You do not want to launch this game unprepared!

Much better to have an established player with enough resources build and equip your character.
If you put too few points in resources, choose the wrong class or race, or get hit by a random nerf, you'll be locked out of most of the progression.
There's no second chances, all you get is one save. And when you quit the game, it bricks your system.
