It is truly the golden age of Hempuli block pushers — they just keep on coming! Alongside them, we have a bunch more great experimental games, like a language-deciphering sokoban mash-up, a game inspired by Photoshop's magic wand tool, and a Scrabble deckbuilder (which happens to be our current Thinky Games Club selection!).
Have a scroll through this list for something free and experimental to get your brain whirring.

Fixban is a short sokoban-style puzzle game, but the crates become fixed to the targets.
Cavemount
Developed by Hempuli.
We decided to take a break from all those block-pushing games and make a hack'n'slash game instead.

You are a calibration inspector. Don't hold on to your memories and follow instructions. Contact your supervisor if you have any questions.
Trichromat
Developed by spratt.
This game was made in 2 weeks for the Acerola Jam 0. The theme was "aberration" and we were warned against using chromatic aberration as our starting point. Naturally, I ignored this advice.

Follow Robbie in this 2D sokoban-style puzzle game with a unique mechanic: Only the objects that are in Robbie's boxy vision will be active.

Trovemount
Developed by Hempuli.
The covemountlike series gets a great new addition in this game about pushing blocks!
Covechrome
Developed by Hempuli.
Statistics have shown that Ueqouow is either the most or least popular covemountlike, or somewhere in-between. Now we're trying to chase that same high/low/midpoint!
Mayban
Developed by Hempuli.
We've been informed of the existence of colours. This is very troubling.
Seuphorica
Developed by Zeno Rogue.
Like single-player Scrabble, but with deckbuilding.
In Seuphorica, you place words on a board, in a crossword fashion. You start with only standard tiles with letters, but you can buy new tiles with special powers!
