Welcome to Thinky Third Thursday, curated by Alan Hazelden of Draknek & Friends – a monthly roundup of thinky puzzle games that have caught my eye.
Your House is a mix of text-based adventure and escape room puzzles in a haunting mystery that plays with narrative form and player interaction
Diacritic mixes interactive fiction with satisfying puzzles in the guise of a workplace dystopia. It’s reminiscent of Papers, Please and Severance, but it’s wholly unique.
Another month gone by means another big list of all the thinky games that landed on our radar. Here's our February releases list, including some 2D-3D swapping, a minimal city-builder, a dice-deck-builder, a new Civilization game, a fan expansion for LOK and a whole lot more.
Vextorial is a multi-dimensional puzzle platformer with a chill retro aesthetic and a mysterious narrative. It’s rough around the edges but wholly unique.
Of the 22 puzzle, strategy, and tactics games under UFO 50’s “thinky” tab, these are our favourites.
You've got a bus stop full of people waiting for a ride, but they won't sit just anywhere. Take control and look after everyone's preferences in cute puzzler Is This Seat Taken?
Take a scroll through our top puzzle picks from this year's Steam Next Fest.
Death Howl showcases a masterful blend of an unlikely pairing.
