VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "2023 was a stupid year for smart puzzle games. While 2022's final voting round presented more options, thus implying a wider net of favorite puzzle games from the community, I'd argue those didn't consistently reach the sheer quality seen in 2023. That's not to take away from those finalists' superlative achievements either; hell, making engaging brainteasers is hard enough on its own. But it really says something when even some choices that didn't make this list could still go on to be considered "classics" in due time. So, it says something impressive about the final four that did."
XBA says: The Talos Principle II should absolutely be in the same conversations as other great puzzlers.
Love this game. Which like to see some DLC like Road to Gehenna in the first game.
Between its innovative puzzles, impressive presentation, and undefeated vibes, Cocoon needs to be experienced on Xbox Game Pass and beyond.
Humanity has finally arrived for Meta Quest, but as we find in our review, its a great puzzle game sorely lacking in VR features.
I played this in PSVR 2. It offers an adjustable viewpoint. I'm not sure what else you would need for a zen game like this.
