I’m curious what you’ll think of them. They’re not too platform heavy at all, more puzzle based but even then the puzzles aren’t too complicated. The main appeal (at least for me) is the environments, which are top tier imo. The vibes are immaculate, as they say. Genuinely I’d consider Inside to be my all time favourite environmental game, though I can see some people disagreeing with that for sure. It tickles me in exactly the way I love. Limbo is also fantastic and a top five for sure. They’re creepy and eerie but not scary or horror, which is my niche 100%. Not a lot of games have an environment like that, and Inside is the only game I’ve ever found to give me that specific feeling. I’ve been looking for years to recreate it, but alas I’m stuck with replaying it over and over again.
