So I heard you like puzzle games. Well, since relatively recently we have gotten two light-weight and relatively simple (as in, simple concept) puzzle games I decided to be more super productive and put them both in the same article. Enjoy the double first impressions!

Developer and publisher Nicalis, Inc. has made an improved version of the popular physics platformer available on Steam for Linux.

Wyv and Keep: The Temple of the Lost Idol now ships with FNA, and is for the first time available for Linux on Humble and Steam.

SpaceChem developer Zachtronics is out with a new game where you're tasked with fixing corrupt code to uncover the secrets of the mysterious TIS-100 hardware unit.

The abstract puzzler is an attempt to make sense of paradoxical time loops through a simplified model of time travel, and was inspired by an argument over the plot of action classic The Terminator.

Rituals is a game that mixes 3D exploration with a subtle story and traditional point-and-click puzzles. It was released on Steam last week, and we've had a look at it.

Going as far back as the 14th of February of this year, users have been reporting that Legend of Grimrock won't even start on their Linux powered gaming machines sporting GPUs from the Nvidia GeForce GTX 900 series.

The beta for 2.5D physics puzzler Unmechanical was announced a couple of weeks ago, and is now available for all owners of the game on Steam.

Jenny LeClue was funded on Kickstarter last summer. A playable teaser has now been made available, along with a new teaser trailer.

The cute but challenging co-op gravity platformer is out of beta and is one worth a look if you have a friend to play with.

Machineers is a construction puzzle game set in a world of robots. Previously only available on tablets, the two first of five planned episodes made their PC début last week.

The rather atmospheric game Dark Echo was released last week. With its minimalist graphics and simple gameplay, it stands out from other recent releases. After giving it a spin, I had a few thoughts to share on the game.

The lovely 2.5D Unreal Engine powered physics puzzler has been announced for Linux, and will soon be available in an open beta on Steam.

The charming sci-fi platformer was released for Windows in February to very positive reviews from press and customers, and is now finally available for Linux.

Don't let the cute looks deceive you. Behind its innocent looking facade, Snakebird hides a fiendishly hard puzzle game that should give even the most seasoned puzzle veteran a proper challenge.

It's sad, but not entirely unexpected that we will be left waiting for Trine 3. We did have to wait for ports of Trine and Trine 2, but when our editor Cheeseness spoke to Frozenbyte it sounded like the Linux version would be out during Early Access.

Rooms: The Unsolvable Puzzle is a game that spices up the notorious sliding tile puzzle formula with a measure of puzzle adventure for a very palatable end result.

Parcel is a Cyberpunk puzzle game from Polar Bunny Ltd that kept our flesk pretty hooked, and less than a month later it has come out of Early access.

The big community made update to Half-Life 2 is now available on Linux. This promises lots of new goodies for the ageing game.

Trine 3 is looking to be amazing, and the developers have shown it off to IGN. We have the video here to feast your eyes on.
