Klaus

Respects your time

You wake up as an office worker with no memory in a basement and must escape a mechanical, constructivist world. The game is built around clever puzzles and a distinctive, minimalist visual style.

Unheard

Strong, story-driven narrative

As a time-traveling detective who can only rely on sound, you eavesdrop on conversations at past crime scenes and piece together the timeline of each case yourself. An unusual, audio-driven mystery with non-linear storytelling.

Metamorphosis

Puzzles and brain teasers

Playing as Gregor Samsa turned into a bug, you explore a surreal Kafka-inspired world of giant everyday objects in first person. Puzzles and platforming drive a quirky, strange story.

Nihilumbra

Jumping and platforming

An atmospheric puzzle-platformer in which you guide Born as he flees the Void, painting the terrain with colours that make surfaces slippery, sticky or bouncy. Each world adds a new colour and fresh puzzles.

Limbo

Jumping and platforming

A wordless puzzle-platformer rendered in stark black and white, following a boy through a hostile shadow world full of deadly traps learned through trial and error. Its oppressive atmosphere and minimalist art make it a haunting, memorable experience.

Contrast

Strong, story-driven narrative

You play a character who shifts between a 3D world and a 2D shadow plane to solve puzzles. Its surreal 1920s film noir and vaudeville atmosphere and jazz score give it a distinctive mood.

Closure

Puzzles and brain teasers

A dark puzzle-platformer where only what is lit exists: you move light sources to phase objects in and out of reality and navigate eerie worlds like a factory, forest and carnival.

Monochroma

Jumping and platforming

An atmospheric puzzle platformer set in a bleak, monochrome industrial world with striking red accents. Two brothers work through clever physical puzzles, with carrying the younger sibling shaping how challenges are solved.
