How it feels

A contemplative and beautiful puzzle journey through alien worlds, where leaping between orbs feels deliberate and awe-inspiring.

What players say

Players praise Cocoon's clever puzzle design and satisfying eureka moments, especially its inventive use of a single button. Opinions split on boss fights: some find them frustrating with sparse checkpoints, while others consider them simple but satisfying. The short length (4-5 hours) is a common point, with most saying it does not overstay its welcome.
