10 Video Games You Need To Play BLIND

1. Journey

Slay the Princess

Journey is admittedly a game so legendary at this point - releasing as it did at the inflection point of the indie gaming boom in 2012 - that it's probably pretty tough to know nothing about it, if you somehow haven't played it yet.

That said, if you have managed to avoid reading or seeing much about Journey, Thatgamecompany's mesmerising bite-sized adventure is a nourishing treat for mind, body, and soul.

Visually stunning, beautifully scored by Austin Wintory, and touting laid-back yet transfixing gameplay with a majorly neat community-based hook, it's a game that's aged like a fine wine in the decade-plus since its original release.

Though it lasts just two hours - ensuring you've got no excuse not to play it - it's such a seminal indie gaming experience that it'll surely leave a deep impression on your psyche, creating memories that'll stick with you years and years later.

Just ask anyone who played it back in 2012 and likely still remembers it fondly, even if they've never revisited it since.
