I burned through all of Cocoon in a day and I was so mad. Not because the game was short but because I had guzzled down this wonderful puzzler in a few hours and not spread it out over a few days. Cocoon is a game you should savor. But like a good meal, it’s hard to do that because you just want more and more and more.

I’d be lying if I told you I fully understand what happened in this artsy top-down puzzle game about going in and out of different worlds within worlds. I think by the end I was a stellar god? Maybe. I don’t know. What I do know is that the slow but well-paced difficulty curve and challenging puzzles built on top of each other in a delightful stack of puzzle perfection that often had me smiling or giggling at how smart I felt. What a treat and a great addition to the Game Pass library.
