Win the Game: WTF!

Challenging difficulty

A deliberately nerve-wracking puzzle game that tests you with tricky and absurd challenges. You'll need patience and thick skin to make it to the end.

That Level Again 2

Vast, open spaces

You only want to leave the house in this small logic game, but every room looks like the last one and the way out is anything but obvious. The fun lies in spotting the subtle differences between seemingly identical levels.

Macdows 95

Puzzles and brain teasers

In Macdows 95 you tackle absurd puzzles built around an invented operating system whose logic deliberately bends away from everyday computing. The charm lies in its unexpected solutions and the playful, offbeat take on interface design.

The Looker

Calm and deliberate

A cheeky parody of The Witness: you explore an island of deliberately annoying and absurd puzzles that poke fun at the genre. Players who know the original will get the most out of the jokes.

WN

Challenging difficulty

A minimalist indie puzzle game with a deliberately incomprehensible interface and no instructions. You have to work out its three puzzles through experimentation.

Pozzo Jello Crusade

Challenging difficulty

A gruelling old-school puzzle game that tests you with extremely demanding challenges. If you enjoy tough brain-teasers and the payoff of finally cracking them, this one is for you.

Tennis in the Face

Puzzles and brain teasers

You launch tennis balls with a machine, bouncing them off walls to hit every enemy in each level. A short, physics-based puzzler full of slapstick humor and ragdoll chaos.

Bad Rats

Vast, open spaces

A physics puzzle game where rats take revenge on cats: you use objects and your trained rat helpers to build creative, often darkly comic chain reactions that take down the cat. Slapstick humor and score chasing encourage replaying levels.
