10 Video Games You Need To Play BLIND

4. Inside

Playdead

The only thing you need to know about Inside - and only as an incentive to actually play the damn thing - is that it's developed by Playdead, the incredible team behind 2010's masterful indie platformer Limbo.

Inside represents an artistic evolution of that game's gorgeous style and mood, once again playing the particulars of its story vague for the most part, while engrossing the player in a richly immersive, beautifully rendered, and yet undeniably oppressive world.

It's another example of a game which has both delights and horrors in store for the player which they absolutely won't see coming - assuming said sights haven't been spoiled for them already, of course.

And so, going in with as little knowledge as possible is absolutely the way to play Inside for maximum visceral impact.

And while you're at it, the same applies to Limbo too. Hell, both games can be beaten back-to-back over the course of a day, so why not make it a double feature?
