Manipulated is a short puzzle-platformer that warns you about having to think. It's certainly not wrong.

Sumoman is a brand new and rather hilarious puzzle platformer powered by the UNIGINE engine. It released with day-1 Linux support and I took a look. There's also a video of my failures included.

Tiles is a simple looking action-puzzle game with 90 levels of ever-increasing difficulty and it's now out for Linux.

Atomic Reconstruction is a simple-looking puzzle game about splitting and fusing atoms to complete each level. The Linux version launched in January, so it's likely a lot of Linux gamers missed it.

The developers of World of One emailed in details about their dark puzzle platformer and it really does look interesting.

Croteam have put out yet another stable build of The Talos Principle, which brings improvements for the Vulkan version. I did some fresh benchmarks and the difference is quite amazing.

I'm never very good with logic games like this, especially when I need to manually count stuff, but Pictopix is very clever.

The Inner World - The Last Wind Monk is a follow-up to the previous adventure game The Inner World, but you don't need to play the first one to enjoy it. Like the previous game, it will support Linux.

I think the premise of this title has a lot of potential, and I hope the developers prove capable of offering a good story in upcoming episodes. In the mean time, the demo is available on itch and GameJolt.

Croteam are continuing to improve The Talos Principle with a brand new stable build that has Vulkan optimizations.

An indie puzzle platformer, where you must control the world around you with words, by the name of Typoman: Revised has made its way onto Linux via Steam.

'The Dweller' is one of those obscure games that for some reason, despite being well made and original they pass completely unnoticed under the radar, and once you finally play them you not only feel you've spent a couple of hours on a worthy title, but also the fact itself of finding them is totally rewarding.

Vidar has a lot going for it even this early on, as a fan of 2D RPG, Adventure & Puzzle games it ticks a lot of boxes for me.

This was confirmed by Polytron on Twitter. All the money will be sent to an American charity called American Civil Liberties Union.

Typoman: Revised, an award winning surreal word game is bringing up Linux support and they need some testers.

imprint-X is a rather different puzzle game to what I’m used to. Your one and only mechanic is to push buttons and that’s really it. It’s really weird, so here’s some thoughts on it.

I posted about Puzzle Puppers possibly coming to Linux only yesterday and a few people told the developers they would buy it. The developer has now published a Linux version!

Owlboy, the popular 2D adventure game from D-Pad Studio is now officially available on Linux. I gave it a run-down to see if it's worthy of your bucks.
