Figment 2: Creed Valley (and more)
4/5⭐ | Just as fun as its predecessor! | Steam
Just like the first Figment game, this is a fun isomentric puzzle + action game that takes place inside the mind. As Dusty, the mind's Courage, you run around solving puzzles and fighting nightmares.
I liked this sliiiigtly less than the first one - the story felt simpler and more obvious, there was less music, and there was only one bad guy and only one or two real boss fights. I think the first game had a bit more meat to it.
However, the sequel was still really fun and the first game's formula continues to work well! It also introduced the fun mechanic of "open vs closed mindedness", which changes the world between 2 states. There were also some particularly creative and enjoyable phases such as the Ethics Maze and the random detective segment. 😂 So I'd definitely still recommend this game!

I shall also briefly mention a cute little puzzle game I played through in 2 hours today - Factory Balls Go. It involves dipping balls in paint to recreate a given pattern, using tools which modify the paint's effects. It's simple, but fun, and I enjoyed blasting through 100 levels!

This "challenge" is not going to be much of one, but I'm still progressing through it!
