Brings what grabs you about Children of the Sun: sneaking and hiding, puzzles to figure out as well as a distinctive art style.

Timelie

Tactical depth

A stealth puzzle game where you scrub through time like a media player to slip past guards. You guide a girl with precognitive powers and her cat, planning each escape step by step.

As tiny Six you sneak through the Maw, a nightmarish vessel full of grotesque giants, solving environmental puzzles while evading capture. Its dollhouse-like, unsettling art style and wordless storytelling make this short adventure unforgettable.

Gylt

Lavish presentation

A dark stealth adventure in which a girl searches for her missing cousin in a nightmarish parallel world. Sneaking, light puzzles and an oppressive, childlike surreal atmosphere take centre stage.

Hitman Go

Tactical depth

Hitman Go turns the stealth series into a turn-based board-game puzzle where you plan each step across grid nodes to slip past guards as Agent 47. The diorama look feels like a polished tabletop toy set.

Out of Sight

Dark, serious atmosphere

You play Sophie, a blind girl who can only see through her teddy bear's eyes as she tries to escape a sinister mansion. The unusual perspective mixes puzzles, horror and a creepy backstory.

Party Hard

Tactical depth

You play a fed-up neighbor who sneaks into parties and quietly eliminates every guest by setting traps, dodging witnesses and outwitting the police. Pixel art and dark humor meet tricky stealth-puzzle levels.

XIII

Distinctive, stylised art style

A cel-shaded shooter that brings the Belgian comic series to life: you play an amnesiac uncovering a conspiracy, with gunshots and footsteps shown as on-screen comic text and panels.
