Simon Tatham’s Puzzles
It’s literally just a super lightweight collection of free and open-source newspaper puzzles. No concrete progression, no unlock system, no ads or IAPs, just pure puzzles and nothing else.

A Short Hike
A very cute lil game about climbing a mountain, or well, climbing is the goal, but you’d find it difficult to not get distracted on the way by all the cute and colourful characters, side quests to help people out, and exploring the archipelago you’re on for hidden treasure and secrets.

TRI: Of Friendship and Madness
Tri is a platformer, one with a very slightly off atmosphere, and in some cases a bit of non-euclidean map design, but its a puzzle platformer nontheless. Your goal is to find your missing fox friend by adventuring through areas, solving puzzles, and unlocking new tools.

DEATHLOOP
8 people, 8 kills, one day. Can’t be that hard right? Though when you wake up knowing nothing, with a face full of sand on the beach it’s not gonna be easy figuring out what to do or even who you are. As is customary for games that are easy to spoil, uhhh… Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1252330…

Arcaea
Two young girls explore a shattered world filled with sound: a past to be uncovered. Not the tagline I’d have gone with personally, and a lot of people seeing the logo out of context probably got confused by this too, but in reality while Arcaea is a rhythm game, it also has a lot of…

14 Minesweeper Variants
If you thought that Minesweeper was too easy, or that guessing in Minesweeper is a sin that should be avoided at all costs, then this is the game for you. 14 Variants is a brutally hard game that expects you to follow a bunch of potentially obscure logical trails to deduce every square and can…

Home Quest
The first game on the big list of stuff that passively just consumes my life, this is a pretty simple resource management idle game without too much complexity. It’s the sort of game that you kinda pick up for 5 minutes, queue up some stuff to do, then let it sit for a bit, so…

Something spooked your 100 bunnies in the night and now you have to adventure out to find them. This is a puzzle platformer where not only do you have to explore the world to find your rabbits, you have to call out to them and tell them to move, stop, etc in order to try…

RiME
RiME is a beautiful little short to medium story game. It has some rudimentary puzzles in it but it’s mostly a game about visual storytelling. You play as a young boy who wakes up on a beach, where you can use your voice to activate statues around the island to raise platforms, open doors, or…

Borderlands 2
Don’t know what needs to be said here, everyone and their mum knows about Borderlands, but I never said I was only recommending new games, or diamonds in the rough, I said I was going to recommend games that I enjoy playing and that I think other people might enjoy playing. And thats what this…

NOISZ STARLIVHT
Gay rhythm game bullet hell. That’s certainly a sentence to start a review with. Let me explain. So NOISZ is a pretty standard rhythm bullet hell visual novel with a bunch of story and lore implication that I’m not 100% on because I haven’t played it, but when I saw NOISZ STARLIVHT, one thing stood…
