Hi guys, I'm relatively new to this board, so I dunno how asking for game suggestions work, I opened a thread for this

So, I recently got some hype for plot twists, thanks to the long Reach, Katana zero, and mindfucks by Kojima / Death Stranding, so... Which indie could I buy on switch with this particular feature?

Games with a plot that blast your brain, like the aforementioned Katana Zero and TLR, and iirc I played a game like the long reach too, loved it

Games where you are the big bad all along, where you experience an adventure and it reveals to be a dream, you have allucinations and such

Genre? Preferably 2d side scrolling, action, adventure, and platforms metroidvania type

Wouldn't us telling you games that have plot twists...ruin the plot twist? Anyway not sure if these two count but try Oxenfree or Inside.

Please suggest games where your main character dies during the game, but you don't see it coming. I want to be shocked.

Thanks in advance.

The game starts out with a cool sci-fi, alternate timelines plot. But about halfway through the plot changes into a game about pushing LGBT agendas.

I predicted an answee like this, but no, not really I think
" Plot twist " could be a million different things, it's pretty safe

Not sure that's what OP is searching for, but Metropolis: Lux Obscura is an indie visual novel (comic-book-style) with multiple endings (namely 4), and while some of those are somewhat predictable, others are quite unexpected.

I'm a great fan of visual novels ( devoured stuff like Hotel Dusk, and its sequel Last Window, for example, and many other games like this) so is definitely a great suggestion, Thank you!

Good about the endings, I'm searching for games with plots who blow minds, twists, unexpected things so it's right

 

[Komatsu]

Not sure if visual novels are your thing, OP, but I would definitely check out Worldend Syndrome.

Forgotton Anne is a BEAUTIFUL platformer/puzzle game, with twists in it’s plot too. Not too long. But it’s fun.

And i must say, it’s beautiful. Like a Ghibli movie.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is mysterious from start to end. I won't spoil it.

 

[Hosam6xavi]

steamworld dig 2 not big but i consider it plot twist lol

 

[SweetShark]

Aren't nearly all the games have a some kind of plot twist anyway? Games with story I mean.

Anyway, I highly suggest to play ICEY!!!!
Please go blind as much as possible.

 

[Yumi]

Inside for sure.

Ugh, this one hits too close to home.

I still remember what the sci-fi genre was like before it just became a medium for various sad fetishists to imagine a world in which androgynous blobs of sex changes with multicolor, half-shaved heads are everywhere, and yet still truly brave and rebellious and fighting some kind of authority or something.

Really? Thats sad to hear, I was gradually gettin interest on it.

Could you say more about it? Does it have to do with the main character?
And don't worry, I don't mind spoilers at all.

I think every single character may be gay or bi. They have sidequests about hooking up same sex couples.

Your main character who is bi (yes, it comes up in conversation a lot) has her love interest which is a male-to-female transvestite who is now a lesbian.

Does it forces you? Does it acts like Resetera with rude remarks about sexuality or about straights? Does it throws those matters on your throat?

It's 2019. We're all gay or bi now.

Are you saying we're all binary?

No, this means we become Eldritch Horrors. There is no such thing like gender for us anymore.
