I've been bouncing between games lately, so just to get some short thoughts out there:

I Wanna Lockpick: I enjoyed it for quite a while, and the game continues to be clever and inventive, but after a point, the game becomes increasingly math-brained (the whole game is math-brained, but the veneer of pure puzzler becomes thinner), and I am not a pure-maths person. Still an easy recommend for the sheer ingenuity.

Nova Drift: This game is a modern take on the old Asteroids arcade game. I grew up as a poverty kid, and one of the games on my first computer was Asteroids, so it's already hitting a nostalgia nugget in my brain. But the design of Nova Drift understands how to capitalize on Asteroids' movement mechanics in ways that the original really didn't, making for a shockingly strategic action shooter.

@desiree I Wanna Lockpick: one thing I like is that most of the level designs are "evil", in that they have an setup that would work, except you're one key short, and you have to find the weird alternative that does work.

imaginary keys and imaginary doors really annoy me for some reason. I almost stopped there, but I kept going a bit, and now I'm in middle of the next big complication, and not sure if I want to expend the energy to map out all the steps needed to open the next door
