Biomorph

Biomorph is a nice 2D-platform-puzzle or metroidvania-style game, where you lead your character, Harlo, through a vast amount of areas, fighting enemies, working on quests, collecting new abilities and searching for various collectables. In addition Harlo has the unique feature to be able to morph into previously defeated monsters to use an develop their abilities as well.

In the spirit of Ori and the Blind Forest, Ori and the Will of the Wisps or Hollow Knight there’s endless quests and a huge world to explore and here and there it seemed ridiculously difficult, but in the end, I enjoyed it a lot and maybe spent way too much time one it.
So yeah, it’s a recommendation …

Bionic Bay

Bionic Bay is 2D platform puzzle game where one has to help a scientist escape a world filled with trap. To solve puzzles and circumvent hazards, one learn abilities such as swapping places with objects, punching objects, slowing down time and flipping gravity.

It’s been extreme fun to struggle with something challenging, so it’s a definite recommendation.

ILA: A Frosty Glide

ILA: A Frosty Glide is calm and cozy cozy open-world 3D platform adventure, where one has to help little with-in-training Ila to find her cat Coco. On her journey through this little 3D world, Ila discovers new abilities, broom upgrades, new dresses and treasure chests as well as hints to where her cat has gone (in the form of foot steps and fishbones).

Fun little relaxing game to mentally shift down a gear (yet some of the objects can be a bit tedious to find) .. certainly a recommendation, if you like calm games without deadly challenges ;)

Journey

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 …
