It's a game that screenshots do not do justice to.
It's distinctive and memorable and definitely more...
I think my case with Undertale was actually a prime example of "Judging by the cover" instead :(.
For the op: sry, for misinforming.
I'm making a game and visually it looks like... junk.
We should try it first, at least share some footage, maybe you are underestimating its appeal.

Well, I actually still think it's a pretty good example, since the game certainly doesn't rely on the visuals, at least not as a hook. I think you're right that people who first pick it up will be confused, at best, by what the game looks like, and only keep going because of the other aspects of the game.
Also Slender: The Eight Pages seems like a reasonable example, although I suppose depending on how you define gameplay, I think you could make a case that it's effective in spite of having bad visuals, bad gameplay, and no story.
