The best advice I can give for Outer Wilds is to take your time with it. Some parts of the game can be tricky to figure out and the game is not very hand holdy. You do have a log that keeps track of your discoveries but often they provide only hints on what to do. Despite this I strongly recommend only looking answers up as an absolute last resort. Following a guide from beginning to end will ruin the experience for you. Take your time and try to piece things together on your own. Don't let yourself get hung up on a single puzzle. There are plenty of leads to follow and they all guide you towards the ending. The biggest reason that would stop me from recommending this game to someone is that it can be slow paced, there is essentially no combat, and, if you're playing right, there is a lot of reading to do. If those things don't bother you then absolutely check this game out. Great soundtrack, interesting story, and some very unique game design choices. Also for those that have a Steam Deck, the game runs very well on medium high settings.
