In this video, I take a closer look at Cocoon, one of the most unique puzzle games of 2023. From its layered world-hopping mechanics to its minimalist storytelling, Cocoon stands out as a quiet triumph in indie game design. I share my personal thoughts on what makes it special and explore its development history and reception.

If you have played Cocoon or are just curious about it, I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments. What did you think of the puzzles, the atmosphere, or the way it tells its story without words?
