The best games do that constantly. It’s part of their storyline to test your morals and ethics in difficult situations.
Ever play any of the Fallout games? Or Cyberpunk 2077? A big part of each of those games is discovering “who you are” as a character. What living in this world means to you, and what you will do, how far you will go, to survive it.
It’s one of the hallmarks of an excellent game

I think the fallout and cyberpunk both had some of those great moments of exploring morality. But in my opinion, the Witcher 2 & 3 do it better than any other games I’ve played.
Rather than spoiling the story with specific examples, I’ll just say this: these games thrive in the grey zone, it’s where they live. And you’ll often find yourself making decisions you really didn’t expect to make or seriously regretting the choice you just committed to.
