9. Turn & Face The Strange (Blood & Wine)

Additional mutations were a surprising addition to Geralt's arsenal when Blood & Wine was announced, but the extra customisation options they offer were surprisingly enjoyable. The joy doesn't stop there, and the quest in which Geralt gains access to the mutations is a great action-light sequence of events, putting Geralt through a number of investigations and puzzles as he seeks out the laboratory of Professor Moreau.

Using a mix of Geralt's Witcher Senses and some of your own gamer's intuition, various different challenges will have to be overcome if you hope to reach the goal here.

The rewards after completing this are great, and a number of combat enhancements can be unlocked by acquiring further mutations. If not, this standalone mission demonstrates the kind of engrossing experience that The Witcher 3 offers even when you're not constantly hacking monsters to pieces!
