Following a successful Kickstarter back in late 2018, developer Straitjacket has launched GOD'S GIFT, a puzzle-platformer inspired by classic Lemmings and Pikmin. Nice to see after quite a few years since the crowdfunding it actually released, and with the Linux support too!
More about it: "God's Gift is a 2D puzzle platformer inspired by Lemmings and Pikmin with an emphasis on forward planning, exploration and experimentation. The gameplay involves guiding mindless cultists throughout 23 levels overcoming environmental and enemy based puzzles by mutating the cultists giving them many fantastic eldritch abilities."

I feel like playing this could give me interesting ideas for foes when running my tabletop fantasy game. Whatever it's like as a game, the art and ideas are pretty interesting and frightening.
