Wilderplace

The hand-drawn art is catchy, and the puzzles are just as original. The game slowly introduces path-finding creatures who interfere with your attempts to clean up the garden levels. As their number grows, expect to feel a sense of chaos. It makes for a very strong, unusual flavor of puzzle mechanics. To be honest, it took me quite some time to like it —it's so frustrating to have woodsmen or miners messing up your plans, to feel the usual puzzle-games control seeping out of your hands. But the late game made it entirely worth it. Big thanks to the designer for delivering this daring gem.
