How do you feel about games that include hidden narratives accessible only through exploration?

Games that bury entire side-stories in out‑of‑the‑way corners always feel like rewards for curiosity. Whether it’s finding a secret door in INSIDE, deciphering codes in The Witness, or triggering hidden NPC dialogues in Oxenfree, these experiences can feel magical. How do you react when you stumble onto a story thread that most players will never see? Does it enhance replay value, or do you worry others might miss the most meaningful parts?

I find hidden narratives in games fascinating, as they reward curiosity and exploration. Discovering these secret stories adds depth and intrigue, making the experience more immersive and personal. It encourages players to look closer and engage more meaningfully with the game world.
