The less you know the better (No shock horror)

Games that are better enjoyed blind, for various reasons. The surprising part of any of these games is not horror/violence/gore/etc. None of the characters are gonna suddenly die.

Just play the game without looking up anything.

La Mulana

@bitterbatterdog thanks for the suggestions! I had Inscryption on here earlier but thought maybe there is a tiny bit of shock horror in it? Still thinking about it. I'll add Bioshock for now because I'm familiar with that one, and look into the others somehow

Maybe it's cheating a little, but narrative-heavy games like Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective or 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim come to mind. I'd at least suggest the latter due to the somewhat non-linear nature of the story; few players will experience the story unraveling in quite the same order of events.

@Hooblashooga thank you, I will consider these
