Not like storywise, I mean it should lie about the mechanics of the game. You should reach the end of the game still not knowing how to play

i was thinking about this the other day! tell the player there's only one way to interact with an object but actually provide a path for them to disregard that, or something. i guess there's a plethora of games that do that though
The first time you come to a common interactable object, you're told that there's 4 steps you have to take to use it, and "the first 3 are the most important". Only step 4 actually does anything
Shadow of the Colossus narrowly, narrowly misses this opportunity by making it possible to get back onto the bridge Wander uses to enter the Forbidden Land. All that was needed was an animation of him leaving without fanfare, fade to black, and silently roll credits.
