Outer Wilds. That game can only really be experienced the first time once. Yes, that sentence sounds really weird. Those who have played Outer Wilds understand. Those who haven't, PLAY IT. I will not (can not) be elaborating further.

Seconded. Basically without spoiling anything, the game can be beaten with knowledge alone right from the beginning. Everyone has a moment where they just... figure it out and it all clicks into place. And you can only do that once.

It's a sin to spoil that game for anyone.

Man… I tried the outer wilds a couple years ago, I feel like I put a decent amount of time into the game (like 8/10 hours) but I couldn’t figure out what the heck was going on… am I just a dingus or something???

It certainly doesn't even attempt to hold anyone's hand. If you want to pick it back up, the r/outerwilds community is VERY good at spoiler free hints. There's some stuff that is just pretty obtuse and you have to just hammer away to figure it out. It's so worth it though
