Outer Wilds.

If you like space games and puzzle games (in the sense that you need to piece together the situation you're in), this is a great choice.

Highly recommend not looking anything up before you play.

Just did the dlc for outer wilds recently. It was refreshing how it added to the story without detracting from the main game but It was pretty damn scary for me, a person who doesn’t play horror games. I still think it’s worth it. Somewhat odd choice for the dlc when the main game was mainly an archaeological space puzzle but they made it work.

The coolest thing when you start the DLC is that you realize that this whole thing has just been out there the entire time you've been playing and you didn't know it. Then you finally get there and you can play the entire DLC while the rest of the game keeps going without you.

I love puzzle games and was so excited to play it, especially after friends that I value the opinion about games claimed it was the best game they've ever played.

I've tried, but it didn't grip me and I gave up after 2 days of trying to get into it.

Maybe one day when the universe thinks it's the right time for me.
