Couldn’t recommend it more. Simply beautiful game. Definitely agree with going in completely blind, try not to even read the Steam description, discovering the core mechanics was very much part of the experience for me. I was left very empty when I finished it, I wanted more and more; like finishing a fantastic book. Easily one of my favourite games of all time.

I didn’t enjoy the DLC as much as the base game, it felt rather disconnected. Which was disappointing given how connected the rest of the game is. Still a nice story, just not quite as good for me.

Are there any other similar games I may also enjoy? I’ve also played Journey and found that to be similarly touching. Stray was also very enjoyable for me.

Subnautica, Breath of the Wild, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Life is Strange all similarly left gigantic holes in my heart and left me unable to play other games for a while.

It’s in a different genre, but check out Her Story. It’s a wonderful game that asks for the same curiosity and creativity from the player that Outer Wilds does.

That’s one I heard about a while back but haven’t given it a shot yet. I will now, thanks.

You might look into "The Forgotten City". Similar "world mechanic" and you really get to know the place while playing it. I enjoyed it after also playing Outer Wilds.
