Nov. 2024
First off, this game is really good. The music and visuals are incredible and really set the scene. The puzzles are interesting but never too hard. I do wish there were more usages of some of the more interesting mechanics. I feel like the price is a little high, but getting it on a discount is fine.

the game is... fine. It's throws a fun heap of puzzles at you and I can't say I didn't enjoy it. But for a 23 euro price tag I was expecting a bit more, and I'm not even talking about how long the game is. It's just fine, the puzzles are intuitive and I never had a problem with them but I would have liked to see more, to see complication that doesn't just end up being busywork. To a certain extent cocoon is a game held back by itself. The mechanics of the puzzles as worlds you hop in and out of are interesting, but now that I've finished the game I'm just kind of left thinking that I while wanted to see these mechanics explored further I'm also left thinking that I saw everything this mechanic of worlds you carry around and hop into could afford. It's interesting and I liked what I saw but it feels like a concept that finished itself up before it could actually evolve from fine to good. Buy it on discount or as part of a bundle and you'll enjoy it, just like I did.

COCOON | ★★★★☆ I launched the game at 9 PM, thinking, "Let me check out the first level, then I'll sleep." Five hours later, to my surprise, I had actually finished it. I didn't even notice the time because I was so hooked. The game has "ONE" interact button. One! Yet it features some of the most satisfying level designs and puzzles I've ever encountered. I also loved how there was an instance where they used the achievement pop-ups as tutorials since the game has no text or dialogue at all. This is one of the best games I've purchased for my Steam Deck; it felt like it was tailored for it.

Cocoon has inspired me to start leaving steam reviews so more people might be encouraged to give small/indie games a chance. ❤️ This is a magical experience. A perfect, ingenius marriage of art, idea, and gameplay. Games like Cocoon comes to fruition every generation or so. Don't waste it.

Short game, finished it under a day but it was a good day because this game made me feel good and smart. I wonder how much play-testing this game went through because it really teaches you without using any typical guidance, no text, no dialogue, just play randomly with what you find and you'll discover how everything works eventually. Very solid gameplay loop.
