If you’re hunting for a gaming gem with a great deal, Cocoon is currently slashed by 50% on Steam, dropping the price to just $12.49. This highly acclaimed indie game, crowned Best Debut Indie Game at The Game Awards 2023, comes from the stables of Annapurna Interactive.
Hailing from Denmark, Geometric Interactive crafted Cocoon, a delightful puzzle venture experienced from a third-person view. In this adventure, you guide a creature resembling an insect across different realms, solving mind-bending puzzles and uncovering cosmic mysteries. With Jeppe Carlsen, the genius behind Limbo and Inside, steering the ship as co-founder and lead designer, Cocoon made a significant impression in 2023—a year brimming with stellar releases from major players like Sony and Nintendo. Besides snagging the Best Debut award, Cocoon earned multiple nominations for Game of the Year, rivalling giants such as Baldur’s Gate 3, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and Spider-Man 2.
For those yet to explore Cocoon’s captivating worlds, now’s the time. The game is at its lowest-ever price during Steam’s Autumn Sale, running until December 4 at 10 AM PT. Interestingly, this marks only the second instance in the past four months where Cocoon has been discounted on Valve’s platform.
Cocoon not only set a new low price record on Steam by surpassing the last drop seen in October but also joins a range of other Annapurna Interactive titles on sale. Whether you’re into action-adventures or narrative-driven experiences, the ongoing Autumn Sale has a bit of everything. For instance, Stray, set in a post-apocalyptic landscape featuring a cat protagonist, is available at $17.99 (down 40%), and Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, recently rolled out on PlayStation, can be snapped up for $18.74 (25% off).
Looking ahead, the innovative team at Geometric Interactive is already working on their next project. While details are scarce, a job listing hints at a new “3D game” helmed by Carlsen. Given his impressive track record, fans of Cocoon will want to keep an eye on this upcoming venture.
