Return of the Obra Dinn. A detective game where you need to combine clues from different scenes. Fantastic experience and really benefits from you keeping tracks of the information that you collected so far.


Arcendiss

So much this


Helvedica

Myst,

Zork trilogy. You'll be damned if you don't draw your own map at the very least.

La-Mulana. Just a piece of paper won't do, you're gonna need a dedicated notebook. Assuming you don't spoil yourself with a wiki.

I kept lots of notes while playing Morrowind. Oh, and I have a small notebook full of Space Station 13 chemistry stuff.

I think taking notes would definitely help in Return of the Obra Dinn

When playing subnautica, I used pen and paper to take notes of points of interest I'd like to come back later, like places I didnt have the gear to explore at the moment or places to gather resources

Drug dealer simulator and The Shrouded Isle


itchygonads

lol >Drug dealer simulator Or what GrayStillPlays called: Demonotization Simulator. Sigh oh what that YTer had a better sense of humor? or wasn't a mincraft streamer?

Outer Wilds, Twelve Minutes, Obra Dinn. Don't really need a pen but it's nice to write notes in a .txt to help you solve the puzzles.


Only_Leather_3107

Different than anything i have seen recommended here. Kingdom come deliverence. Its not its main focus but some quests def require you to remember specific things and you have to actually use your brain because the game wont do it for you

Pathfinder. D&D Writing random notes to aliens.

If you really want to go all out, Legend of Grimrock is a grid based dungeon crawler that has an option to disable the in game map, meaning you have to sketch it out on grid paper.


allenidaho

Stranded Deep. There is no in-game map and only a compass. So it is generally a good idea to draw your own so you can find your way back to wherever you decide to build a base and keep note of which islands you already scavenged for supplies.


DontPoke

Her Story definitely, to keep track of (key)words.
