This weekend I discovered a webpage that generates these puzzles, where the goal is to draw the unique closed loop in a square grid, subject to constraints on how many times you are allowed to pass next to certain tiles. There are various difficulty levels, and you can also choose among many other tilings (even the hat monotile!). These are very satisfying to solve, but I also find them quite addictive, so try them at your own peril!

Some tokens aren’t just markers — they become decisions.
A diamond token on the board changes tension: is it worth fighting for?
Is it bait, leverage, victory, a deal waiting to happen?
A single piece can tilt a table. ♟️💎

Sometimes soundtracks make me go play games again. Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure, which came out about a year ago, is one of those.

Definitely an overlooked game with neat illustrations, puzzles, and a joyful soundtrack on top of that.

Started playing The Rise of the Golden Idol! Although the art-style has changed a bit compared to The Case of the Golden Idol, the vibe is still the same. It's still pretty challenging to guess what's exactly happened in the scenario's, so I'm curious how more difficult the game will get.

Earlier this year, we ran a developer conference about the making of thinky games. It was an amazing event. Anyone interested in game design would gain so many valuable insights from these talks.
