What an amazing experience.

COCOON is a relatively small but incredibly well crafted puzzle game with great level & sound design, smart puzzles, beautiful art style, and clear attention to detail. The "worlds" all feel distinct from one another, and the world-hopping mechanism / world powers are really interesting, especially when you get to the second half of the game and you need to go down multiple levels to solve a puzzle.

Performance is stellar, and puzzle difficulty is fair enough that you'll have to think about it, but not so impossible that you have to look them all up. Also easy to get 100% completion just by playing through normally and exploring the environment. Would absolutely recommend!

One of my favourite games I've played this year.

Elden Ring is a joy to play thanks to its very well thought out bosses, weapon & spell variety, hugely dense open world, and rewarding exploration.

There are tons of bosses, and they all have distinct move sets, weapons, and looks - nothing is copy-pasted. After you kill them, you can even take their weapons / skills to use yourself, which is a nice reward when you spend potentially hours trying to conquer whoever stands in your way.
There are so many weapons (swords, claws, katanas, bows), weapons skills and magic spells to choose from that it can sometimes feel overwhelming, but it's relatively easy to try them all out, and they're all combat viable. If you ever get bored of what you're currently using or feel like you've hit a wall, you can just try something else that you found in a cave. You can use 2 big shields, one massive sword that sends out snow, a magic bow that fires 5 arrows at once, a bloody dagger, a huge beam of magic, a whip, a pizza cutter... the selection is endless. You can also summon "spirits" to help you in combat, which can make the difficulty quite a bit more bearable!
The world is huge and dense - it really feels like each major area is different from what you've encountered before, both visually and enemy-wise. You can go anywhere you can see in the distance, and exploring the world has so many rewards. You can run around everywhere and still be surprised when you find caves or tunnels that spit you out somewhere completely different! Some of the most fun weapons can also only be found through exploration. There's just so much to do and see and fight, the surprise never really ends.

My only complaint is that I have to play offline due to the fact I need to mod the game to play in ultrawide. The game loads everything on screen and then hides it with black bars (the mod removes these black bars). Annoying since I can't play online, but not a deal breaker.
