Ranked by player rating, Metacritic breaks ties.

1
Viewfinder
AdventureIndie
Place a photograph and it becomes real. Short, generous, and delighted with its own idea.
4.2/5Player ratingView game
2
The Talos Principle
AdventureIndiePuzzle
First-person puzzles of the same calibre, wrapped in philosophy instead of comedy.
4.2/5Player ratingMC85View game
3
Superliminal
IndiePuzzle
Perspective is the mechanic — the closest anyone has come to Portal's 'oh, of course' moment.

4
Antichamber
IndiePuzzle
Space itself lies to you. Less playful than Portal, far stranger, and it will not hold your hand.
4.1/5Player ratingMC82View game
5
The Witness
AdventureIndiePuzzle
It never explains anything, and that's the point. Harder, quieter, deeply rewarding.
