GRIS is an extremely beautiful and relaxing 2D platform adventure game in which you guide the female protagonist through various puzzles in different worlds, learning more and more skills as you go.
A touching story combined with gorgeously drawn and designed levels, as well as perfectly matched and well-crafted soundscapes and soundtrack, made this game an extreme pleasure to play.
I highly recommend playing GRIS if you like casual platformers and just want to have a good time.
Gibbon: Beyond the Trees is a fun little side-scrolling endless runner-style platform adventure game that also educates the player about the real-world ecological problems threatening gibbons in Southeast Asia.
Gibbon features a very simple gameplay, some nice graphics and interesting stories, making it a nice in-between game.
Papetura is a beautifully made point-and-click adventure game where you follow/guide two little creatures along their journey to save their papery world from pyromanic monsters.
The game is set in some really nice done scenes – who creation process is quite unique (see video on YouTube) and you will have to solve a number of puzzles to lead the protagonists to victory.
A somewhat short, but certainly enjoyable little adventure game!
Secrets of Rætikon is a 2D open-world action adventure where one controls a little bird on its way through forests, caves and mountains trying to collect relics to power some ancient device.
It’s maybe not the greatest game of all times, but it was a fun to play and explore.
Some technical issues with the full-screen mode and when playing on the Steam Deck were a bit annoying.
Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective is a fun little puzzle / hide-and-seek game for in between and great for younger kids too. Fun little story, lots of nice drawings and animations, side stories and hidden treasures in this adventure. Kind of a gamified ‘Where’s Wally’/’Wimmelbuch’ experience that’s certainly fun.
