September's Keepers
Unbelievably relaxing vignette-based puzzle game about disassembling and re-assembling various objects. Beautiful visuals too. A must play if you need a break!
Super cute puzzle game with intuitive controls and clever puzzles. Flying the rocket between levels is neat, the challenges and bonus levels add some variety, and the multiplayer is alright! Lots of content here!
Dear Reader
By Local No. 12 Interesting concept. It’s a word-based puzzle game where you re-arrange words and sentences in excerpts from various stories. The different modes allow you to turn the relaxing read-and-play experience into a brain-teasing puzzle game.
Down in Bermuda
By Yak and Co A cute puzzle/interactive adventure in similar vain as The Witness, but with elements that remind me of Humongous games. Interacting with everything and attempting to find all the secrets is really fun and relaxing. With boss fights too!
Grindstone
By Capybara Games Interesting take on the gem matching game genre with a unique art style. Crazy animations. Very fun in small doses.
Pretty good puzzle game with great level design, a decent difficulty curve, lots of variation, and really nice 3D visuals and effects. Unfortunately, the 2D elements and UI are not great and clash a lot with the game’s aesthetic.
A fantastic mystery adventure game packed with point-and-click style puzzles and dialogue choices. Great visuals and really fun interactive mechanics. Unique narrative too! Play it!
Visually interesting, but doesn’t do anything new gameplay-wise. Becomes boring and repetitive very quickly.
Murder Mystery Machine
By Blazing Griffin A point-and-click game about investigating and solving murders with beautiful visuals and intriguing dialogue. Bite-sized levels are great and the evidence board mechanic is very unique! Worth checking out!
Patterned
By Border Leap A very relaxing puzzle game. Doesn’t really offer much aside from completing what is essentially just jigsaw puzzles. Fine if you want to cool off and do nothing.
While visually appealing, unfortunately, the optical illusion of lining things up in 3D space has been handled way better in other games. This one has nothing new to offer. It becomes repetitive and tedious very fast.
Spek.
By RAC7 Games Easy to pick up, minimal, relaxing puzzler. Reminds me of Echochrome on the PS3.
