‘Cocoon’ – A Recursive Puzzle Adventure Game – Set to Launch on September 29th
The puzzle game genre is experiencing a remarkable year with the exceptional releases of Humanity and the mind-boggling Viewfinder. Adding to the excitement, a new game called Cocoon has recently been announced and showcased at Summer Game Fest, garnering significant attention. Publisher Annapurna Interactive has revealed that Cocoon will be available on various platforms, including PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam, starting from September 29th. Additionally, the game will also be accessible through Game Pass.
This is the first project from Geometric Interactive, founded by two former developers at Playdead, behind Limbo and Inside. Cocoon is an adventure game where you solve puzzles using balls. When you place a ball in a socket, you can jump into it – each ball is its own world with different mechanics and a boss to defeat.
Cocoon is all about recursion. You can take the orb to another world to take advantage of its abilities, such as the ability to see otherwise invisible paths or activate switches. You also have the ability to bounce back from the ball, which is key to solving some puzzles and getting past obstacles. We look forward to this.
