CLeM is a dark, yet fun little puzzle adventure, where you have to control a little puppet, guided by an initially somewhat mysterious voice. Throughout the game this interaction develops in a beautiful yet sad and moving story. But I don’t want to spoil too much …
It’s been a quick little puzzle delight and it’s a recommendation for indie adventure fans!
Journey is a beautiful, calm, 3D platform adventure with an interesting co-op twist. You can team up with another random player and embark on the journey together, but you can’t really communicate with them. Besides this co-op idea, limited jumps, depending on the charge of one’s magical scarf, are another interesting gameplay element.
Whether alone or teamed up, one has to guide a robed figure through various levels/regions toward a distant mountain, using only notes/chimes to communicate with the environment (or the other players).
It’s been extremely enjoyable, also trying to communicate and collaborate with the other players, all without chatting. A definite recommendation …

Metamorphosis is plattform-like puzzle adventure game where one guides Gregor – formerly human, then insect – through a mysterious story trying to save his friend – still human – Joseph from unjust prosecution.
I really enjoyed the change in perspective, the gameplay, the graphics as well as the story, so for me it’s definitely a recommendation …

Sable is a calm and kids-friendly 3D open-world exploration and puzzle adventure game using a very peculiar comic-like graphics style. In the game, one has to control Sable, a young girl who sets out on a journey of self-discovery as she searches for an appropriate mask (profession) and returns to her nomadic clan. Exploring the ruined desert planet of Midden, Sable encounters several characters who help her find her place in the world, as well as giving her several tasks that often involve solving puzzles and platforming through rock formations or ancient ruins.
Maybe except for some small graphics bugs, some weird driving mechanics here and there, it’s been a really enjoyable and calm journey, all wrapped in a nice little story .. kind of like playing a nice book.

Oddworld: New’n’Tasty! is complete remake of 1997 teenage classic Oddworld: Abe’s_Oddysee and lots of fun to play. Just like the original, New’n’Tasty is a sidescrolling platform video game where one has to guide the main character, Abe, through various locations/levels and solve puzzles to free Abe’s fellow Mudokons.
Loads of nice designed levels, puzzles and videos in between as well as great gameplay make New’n’Tasty a lot of fun to play and a definite recommendation.
