Cosmic Express is a cute and surprisingly difficult puzzler about guiding aliens through a space colony. It’s easy to pick up and offers a lot of challenge underneath all the bright colors. It’s this week’s indie pick!
Four Sided Fantasy as a puzzle game by Ludo Land all about redefining boundaries. It is out now on the Playsation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Mac. Giving the player the ability to lock the screen in place, they can wrap around, fall upwards, and change what it means for a screen to end.
Indie game Pan-Pan offers players a world they desperately want to be in and then hampers their ability to enjoy it. The game’s take on exploration kept me pushing through frustrating puzzles. By the end of my journey, I’d worked through confusion all for the purpose of remaining in a fantasy paradise.
Metrico is a frustrating game. That's mostly meant as a compliment. This is a puzzle game, after all. You're supposed to pull your hair and swear once in a while.
The classic puzzle game The Room is finally making its way from the iPad to the PC next week. Developer Fireproof Games also said that the new version will be done in "fully enhanced HD." So you know you'll have something pretty to look at when you're pulling your hair out in frustration!

While the early levels are pretty easy, some of the later stages get pretty complicated — all in all, not a bad little browser-based timewaster to kill some time…
We're having a slow weekend here at Kotaku: Owen is off, and I'm holed up in bed trying to stave off the flu; Aether made a nice respite from my headache and general feelings of 'blah.' It's a weird little game — a little abstract and fuzzy around the edges, you control a little guy and his pet who can fly through…
Hexiom Connect is a pretty intuitive browser-based puzzle game; you have to rearrange hexagons on the board so that all the colored lines are connected. There are 40 levels (and even a colorblind option, so if you can't tell the difference between red and green, never fear), so I've spent quite a chunk of time this…
Are the ridiculous, wild goose chase puzzles of classic adventure games obsolete? Michael Abbott at the Brainy Gamer grudgingly says they may be — "A revealing slap in the face awaits the - shall we say "veteran" - gamer who hands an old adventure game to a young gamer with a hearty recommendation and an assurance of…
