Cerebral Puzzle Showcase 2025: 31 Games Previewed

Every year, the Cerebral Puzzle Showcase shows off some great new games, often with demos, to new puzzle gaming fiends. This year is no different. I played 31 games from the showcase for the first time this year, and enjoyed 30 of them enough to add them to my wishlist (and one came out for free since too).

The games showcased are:

  • Trifolium
  • The Lilliput Workshop
  • Compress(Space)
  • Shape Sender Deluxe
  • Paint Over
  • Spectacle: Worlds Unseen
  • Aillia
  • How Old Is James?
  • Zombiology
  • The Button Effect
  • Schrodinger’s Cat Burglar
  • Orbyss
  • Beyond the Board
  • Lucky Me
  • Panik
  • Desolus
  • Memory’s Reach
  • Dimhaven Enigmas
  • The House of Tesla
  • Agent of Veil
  • Park It!
  • Hamstermind
  • Snow Cone
  • Inbox Unbox
  • Forklift Flowerpot
  • Olaf the Boozer
  • Cipher Zero
  • Surradia: An Art Retrospective
  • Puzzle Spy International
  • City of Voices
  • Map Map: A Game About Maps

My apologies to City of Voices, where a video editing error from me means that Map Map footage is shown whilst I talk about the game! It is a good game though. I hope this video helps you find some new games to enjoy.
