Braid

Interconnected level design

A landmark puzzle-platformer where every world bends time in a new, mind-twisting way, from rewinding to parallel realities. Beneath its painterly look lies a melancholic, ambiguous tale of regret and obsession.

Nihilumbra

Dark, serious atmosphere

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.

Lucidity

Interconnected level design

You guide little Sofi through a surreal dream by placing items like stairs, bridges and fans so she can walk safely to the exit. A tricky puzzle-platformer with a storybook look where planning ahead is key.

And Yet It Moves

Interconnected level design

A puzzle-platformer set in a torn-paper collage world where you rotate the entire level to change gravity and exploit physics. The rotation mechanic drives clever, tricky challenges.

Closure

Distinctive, stylised art style

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.

Macrotis: A Mother's Journey

Interconnected level design

You guide Mother Bilby through a hidden underground realm in search of her children. The game blends atmospheric 2.5D platforming with clever puzzles and an emotional, heartfelt story.

Typoman

Distinctive, stylised art style

A dark 2D puzzle platformer where you form words from letters to reshape the environment and get past obstacles. Its surreal, stark visual style and word-based mechanic set it apart.

Hue

Distinctive, stylised art style

A minimalist puzzle platformer where you change the background colour of the world to make obstacles vanish and open new paths. The search for the protagonist's missing mother provides a quiet, simple story.

Candle

Distinctive, stylised art style

A hand-painted puzzle-platform adventure where you play Teku, whose left hand is a candle, lighting your way through trap-filled, dark areas to rescue your tribe's shaman.
