Against Komugi's 7.5/10 for Superliminal, I examine five claims drawn from the negative Steam reviews — length versus price, shallow puzzles, a second half that turns into a walking simulator, motion sickness, and an unearned ending speech. I agree with the sag in the back half and the sermonizing finale, and push back on the verdict that short automatically means bad value.

Lightmatter
A first-person puzzler where touching a shadow kills you instantly. Light your way out of a collapsed research facility using only portable lamps and light-relaying pylons, turning a floor of darkness into a safe path. Tunnel Vision Games' open love letter to Portal, built on the single paired verb of light and shadow.

Call of the Sea
A first-person adventure puzzler set in the 1930s South Pacific, where Norah lands on an unknown island chasing her husband's lost expedition, reading journals and inscriptions and turning devices to unlock its secrets — Out of the Blue's Lovecraftian entry in the Myst lineage.

The Sojourn
A first-person puzzler where you toggle light and shadow, swap places with statues, and cross a colour-drenched world within a limited number of steps. A calm, small-verb entry in the Myst and Witness lineage from Shifting Tides.
