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 …

Paper Trail

Paper Trail is a puzzle game where one has to guide main character Paige through various riddles to help her leave her parents’ home and reach university, where she can fulfil her dream of studying astrophysics.

Set in a world made of double-sided paper, players must fold the sheets of life in the right way to create paths from one level to the next. The story takes a back seat, but if you like puzzles, there are plenty to solve in this fun gameplay concept.

Fe

Fe is a beautiful and calm 3D platform adventure game where one controls a fox-like creature, Fe, on its quest to protect its forest against infestation by robot-like creatures called Silent Ones. Over time and by gathering crystals and helping out other forest animals, Fe learns new abilities and uncovers the story behind the aggressors.

I enjoyed playing the game and even though some crystals and artifacts to discover have been a bit tedious to find/reach, I’d recommend it .. if you like (somewhat) calm gaming.

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

VORON: Raven’s Story

VORON: Raven’s Story is a beautiful, (mostly) calm 3D open-world puzzle adventure where you play as a raven from Norse mythology, tasked with guiding lost souls to the afterlife and reuniting with its family after an ancient evil attacks.
By flying around and utilizing flapping, gliding, aerobatics as well as stamina management, several challenges have to mastered and puzzled have to be solved to reach one of two possible endings.

I really enjoyed the game/fight mechanics and the ability to explore the island in free flight. Another very nice and calm – maybe except for some timed challenges and the final fight – game, I really enjoyed and recommend.
