Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee

Challenging difficulty

A helpless Mudokon slave escapes a grotesque meat-processing plant using cunning, chanting and possession instead of weapons, rescuing fellow workers along the way. Its blend of black humor, punishing puzzle-platforming and striking art makes it a cult classic.

Primordia

Puzzles and brain teasers

A classic point-and-click adventure set in a decaying world of robots, where you play Horatio and his sarcastic companion Crispin solving puzzles and uncovering the secrets of a vanished humanity. A bleak post-apocalyptic setting meets dry humor and philosophical themes.

Portal

Lots of humour

A tight first-person puzzler where you bend space with a portal gun through physics-based test chambers, all while the passive-aggressive AI GLaDOS taunts you with pitch-black humor. Brilliant mechanics, perfect pacing and an iconic twist make it a classic.

Quadrilateral Cowboy

Distinctive, stylised art style

You plan and execute heists as a hacker in a retro cyberpunk world, typing commands on a chunky in-game laptop and using gadgets to outwit security systems. Its quirky low-poly style and hands-on, tactile interface make it stand out.

American Arcadia

Distinctive, stylised art style

A puzzle-platformer set in a 70s retro-futuristic city that is secretly a deadly reality show. You try to escape the cameras and uncover the truth, alternating between 2D puzzles, stealth sections and 3D chase sequences.

Messiah

Dark, serious atmosphere

You play Bob, a small angel who can possess other beings in a grim future world and use their abilities. The mix of third-person action, puzzles and dark humor was quite unusual for its time.
