Together with its meticulously detailed hand-drawn illustrations, it feels like every single detail of Gorogoa is well-thought-out and precise, probably because it took solo developer Jason Roberts six years to make. Winner of Debut Game at the 2018 BAFTA Games Awards, as well as Best Mobile Game and the Innovation Award at the GDC 2018 Choice Awards. It's straightforward, short (the game is a neat 2-hours long), and goes in interesting directions. Gorogoa is an elegant evolution of the puzzle genre, told through a beautifully hand-drawn story designed and illustrated by Jason Roberts.

You can also put each of the panels on top of each other, creating new scenes and connections, or in some cases move the panels around to reveal secrets - like discovering the wandering eye of a giant beast.
