Every so often, a game comes along that doesn’t say a word yet somehow says everything. Cocoon is a beautiful, world-within-worlds puzzle adventure from Jeppe Carlsen, the lead designer behind Limbo and Inside. You play as a small insect-like traveler exploring alien landscapes, solving puzzles by literally jumping between worlds contained inside glowing orbs. Each new area connects to the next in ways that constantly surprise you. It’s short, brilliant, and quietly emotional — the kind of game that trusts you to figure it out yourself. If you love minimalist design, clever mechanics, and games that stay with you long after the credits roll, Cocoon deserves your attention. 📺 Watch more You Should Pick Up episodes for quick indie-game spotlights between full Critical Reset reviews. #Cocoon #IndieGames #PuzzleGames #CriticalReset #YouShouldPickUp #Limbo #Inside #indiegamespotlight
