Hey can you tell me any good puzzle games with a bit of plot in them?
I feel like I'm gonna letcha down here with what falls into this category for me, but here goes.
For mainstream games, I like the Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom a lot. The puzzles especially in TOTK are so open ended that it was a delight trying to solve them. The Horizon games are a bit less puzzle based but do require problem solving and the plot is absolutely top tier. The Last Guardian had some awesome puzzles and plot made me cry, and Okami had some problem solving.
On the more indie side of things I ended up with this point and click puzzle game called Inner World that I really really enjoyed and have no idea where it came from.
I just played thru Chants of Sennaar and loved it - if you like language puzzles with some story I highly recommend it. You gotta make your way up a Babel-inspired tower by deciphering the language symbols of the people living at each level, while helping them learn to communicate with each other again.
Also gotta agree with all the people suggesting Outer Wilds, it’s the kind of story that can change you as a person (if you’re into being a space archeologist).
