Released in 1993 by Silicon & Synapse (later Blizzard Entertainment) through Interplay, The Lost Vikings is a cooperative puzzle in which the player controls three differently-skilled vikings one at a time and must lead all of them to the exit. In Japan it was distributed by T&E Soft under the title Viking no Daimeiwaku. This essay re-reads its era, the quality of thought its three-way cooperation produced, and the lineage that runs from Lemmings and Gobliiins to today's cooperative puzzles.

A first-person puzzle where you fire colored paint at walls and roving droids, mixing primary colors to lure each droid onto a matching panel — a Portal-style test-chamber game built on a single verb: painting.

A 2D puzzle-platformer where you dent and raise the very ground to build your own footholds, threading past spikes and lasers to return each essence to the world-trees. Nyamakop's debut from South Africa, built on a single verb — deform — in a world with no 'hardness'.

A 2.5D narrative puzzle-platformer that guides a hunted boy ever rightward through a dark dystopian facility, solving with push-pull, water, light, and the power to remote-control other bodies. Wordless, told entirely through its environment — Playdead's follow-up to LIMBO.
