  • From many of the developers that previously worked on Limbo and Inside, COCOON is an interesting new puzzle game that revolves around exploring unique worlds in order to unlock their special abilities that can then be used on leaving the world and carrying it on your back. The game features a minimalistic aesthetic with its story, visuals and gameplay, giving players little more than the ability to move and interact with things.
    These interactions, being highly context sensitive, are where the puzzle designs of COCOON come to life. The game makes use of its environment to not only tell its story, but to design its puzzles as well, often hiding hints behind things like rotating puzzles or hidden platforms that can only be seen when making use of an orb’s special ability.

    Incredible game. Disagree about the obscure hints as the game will lock you into certain areas until you can figure them out - you won’t backtrack to the start of the game thinking you’ve missed something, for example

      Exactly and the way the puzzles are scoped so you don't waste time in unrelated areas is what makes this the only puzzle game that I've played that never felt frustrating or cheap. just extremely well thought out puzzles in an amazing atmosphere. I just wish it were longer

      Agree with both of you. Didn’t have any issues with those puzzles. And agree you don’t need to go back to see if you missed anything

    Loved this game, just finished it tonight. It will have you running back and forth, questioning your decisions, and later on wondering what goes where and what goes inside what. If you liked inside you'll love this. It's on game pass.

    Wow.... For me, Inside - is one of the greatest video-game masterpieces of all time. I cannot wait to play this - from the visual design alone, I am already convinced this will be no different. What a refreshing approach, this is a masterclass in visual design and animation. Bravo!

    Such a phenomenal game. They should use this world inside of a world mechanic in an open world genre like maybe a Bethesda game. This game is truly a masterpiece albeit short.

      ​​​​​​​​@@obitosenju3768 Chants of Sennaar, Creaks, The Talos Principle 2, Chicory, Baba Is You, The Entropy Centre, Superliminal, Return of the Obra Dinn and Viewfinder are great puzzle games too.
      Might be worth playing Inside and Limbo too since they're made by some of the same devs.

    Wondering how far the reviewer played?
    I played about 40 mins, and I saw no footage here that I didn’t see in my own play.
    The reviewer claims to “not wanna give spoilers”, but o can’t imagine what kind of spoilers that this game would have (based on my time with it)
