Wurroom

Calm and deliberate

Wurroom feels more like an interactive art piece than a conventional adventure. You explore strange worlds and unclaimed realities as a lost Hand, and the game costs nothing to play.

The Way of Life

Lots to discover

You switch between a businessman, an old man and a child who all walk the same road, yet see very different realities. Exploring each point of view and interacting correctly with the environment is what makes the game stand out.

Fract Osc

Lots to discover

A minimalist, abstract exploration game where you solve puzzles to revive a world built from sound. You shape tones and create music that becomes part of the world itself.

Pid

Lavish presentation

A charming puzzle-platformer about a young boy stranded on an alien planet, using a gravity beam and clever puzzles to find his way home. Its painterly art style and moody soundtrack are the highlights.

Laserlife

Calm and deliberate

You control two lasers with the twin analog sticks and rebuild the memories of a dead astronaut, which alien intelligences recreate as light. It is a melancholic, music-driven interactive biography set in deep space.

Vivid/Stasis

Lavish presentation

You follow a group of girls drawn into a tangled mystery involving shadowy organizations, disappearances and the fourth dimension. The game weaves rhythm sections into a dense, interlocking story.

Deliver Us the Moon

Lavish presentation
