Players follow Miho, who, after assisting his grandma prepare soup, is pulled into a colorful world filled with potato-nabbing frogs and other quirky animals.

Cocoon
Cocoon: A Puzzle Adventure is scheduled to exit the service on Oct. 15, giving you only a few days to experience it via subscription — and you absolutely must. Developer Geometric Interactive designed one of the finest puzzlers of this generation in the 2023 release Cocoon: A Puzzle Adventure. Its core gameplay element focuses on moving between worlds within additional dimensions, and frequently you'll carry those worlds, in the form of colorful spheres, with you.
Although it lacks direct instructions, everything about Cocoon: A Puzzle Adventure's puzzles is built in a highly natural manner, yet they can test you as well. The year 2023 proved a big year for games, so it's no surprise if Cocoon was a bit missed by many players. We should correct that while we can.
