Operator Overload, a puzzle game I briefly wrote about back in June last year is finally getting a release this week.

Unbalance is a minimalist puzzle game about spinning things around to drop a red ball onto something, it's actually quite clever.

A little overdue, but I took a look at xoEl Empire as the developer sent in a copy. This puzzle game is just completely weird.

A game about swimming might not be the most obvious premise for the puzzle genre. Swim Out, released today, nonetheless combines stylized visuals and audio into a relaxing package.

The Escapists 2 launched recently with day-1 Linux support, Team17 sent over a key and I’ve taken a look.

Molecats is a puzzle game about indirect-control, where you adjust the environment to let these weird creatures get to safety. The developers just put out a Linux version of this Early Access game.

Suicide Guy, a game about killing yourself. Despite the name, it's not actually about suicide, depression or anything like that.

I mentioned spaceBOUND recently, but it didn't really work. Thankfully, now it will if you use the usual Unity trick to overcome the broken fullscreen. It's a clever game too, well worth a look.

More than an indie Portal-like, SolarGun offers up some interesting puzzles and overall it seems like a pretty decent puzzler.

Kindergarten a very highly rated abstract puzzle adventure has made it's way onto Linux. It seems the developer isn't expecting many sales, so perhaps we can change their mind? It does look pretty good!

The Inner World - The Last Wind Monk, a colourful adventure game was due this month, but it seems it has been delayed until September 14th. They've got a newer trailer though, so that's something.

World of One is a cleverly designed and rather creepy puzzle platformer that you should consider taking a look at.

I must say that at the very beginning I thought the concept of the game was going to be extremely simple and boring, but by the tenth level it not only proved me wrong, but also I was completely hooked with it (no pun intended). There are free levels on Kongregate if you want to give them a try!

A port of a formerly mobile-only game, the game combines basic puzzle solving with a minimalist style and precise gameplay. I played the new HD edition and have a few thoughts to share.

In the mood for a more relaxing game? Well klocki might be what you need for those Monday blues. It's a simple puzzle game about fitting shapes together.

Grab the Bottle from developer Kamina Dimension is a really weird snake-like game about some weird mutant person with an extending arm.

I've had some time to play World to the West, a 3D follow up to Teslagrad where each character has some unique ability.
