Prove me wrong: All good CRPGs start with an open-ended mystery

To name only a few great games from the 1980s: Rogue, Wizardry, Faery Tale Adventure, Dungeon Master, and Pool of Radiance do not begin with an "open-ended mystery". +M

Counter-examples Wizardry 6 (mysterious castle), Legacy (mysterious house). On the other hand, The Summoning is full of mysteries, but you see them only after tutorial levels.
