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 …
Ouros is a fun, calm, geometry-based puzzle game that is also available on mobile phones. To solve the puzzles, you have to drag curves and splines into the correct shapes, and position crossings, wormholes, and other objects so that you can traverse a set of numbers in the right order.
NightSky is a puzzle-platform video game where one has to guide a sphere through various world using realistic physics and properties like magnetism, stopping and acceleration power.
Peppered with numerous obstacles, the levels offer plenty of puzzle fun in two variations each. Despite some frustration here and there, I have certainly enjoyed the little silhouette puzzle treat.
