  • Puzzles and brain teasers
  • Lots to discover
  • Challenging difficulty

A metroidvania platformer where you explore freely while a limited oxygen supply keeps you on the clock. Tricky puzzles are a central part of the experience. This rating relies on limited metadata.

VVVVVV

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A tough retro platformer where you can't jump but instead flip gravity to switch between floor and ceiling. Brutally precise rooms, generous checkpoints and a pounding chiptune soundtrack make it a cult classic.

Ecco: The Tides of Time

Challenging difficulty

As the dolphin Ecco, you swim through vivid underwater worlds, solve puzzles and travel through time to stop a cosmic threat. It is atmospheric, unusual and notoriously tough.

1000 Amps

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

As the little plug Plug, you explore a sprawling tree-like network, light up its areas and solve puzzles in a compact Metroidvania-style platformer.

Tomb Raider II

Challenging difficulty

Lara Croft hunts the Dagger of Xian across Venice, an offshore oil rig, a sunken wreck and Tibetan monasteries. This classic demands precise jumps, solves tricky environmental puzzles and adds more gunfights against human foes than its predecessor, plus vehicles like a speedboat and a snowmobile.

Gateways

Pure single-player experience

A 2D puzzle-platformer set in an inventor's lab, where you use gateway guns to open paths through walls. Portal-style puzzles meet Metroidvania-style exploration and unlockable abilities.

Pharaoh's Tomb

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A classic 1990 arcade-adventure where you work through 20 treacherous pyramid levels filled with traps and puzzles. With only five lives and a handful of spears, careful play is essential.

Ecco the Dolphin

Challenging difficulty

As a young dolphin you swim through vast, dangerous oceans to rescue your vanished family. It blends exploration, puzzles and tricky underwater action with an unusual, melancholic atmosphere and a notoriously high difficulty.
