Games Like Shadow Puppeteer (2026)

Shared: Wordless Narrative, Short Playtime

GRIS is a wordless platformer about grief told through watercolor animation and a swelling score. Quiet, intentional, and unlike most things on Steam.

Shared: auto-admitted, Couch Co-op

Wobbly physics puzzles that feel broken by design until you realize the chaos IS the puzzle. Solo it's a patience test; with friends, it's the funniest co-op session of the year.

Shared: auto-admitted, Couch Co-op

Bring a second pair of hands or don't bother. A frantic, brilliantly legible co-op kitchen game that tests friendships in eight-minute bursts and knows when to stop.

Shared: auto-admitted, Atmospheric

A sprawling post-apocalyptic FPS that trades AAA polish for atmosphere, exploration, and a living-feeling zone that rewards curiosity over hand-holding.

Shared: Hand-Drawn Art

Few two-person studios have conjured a world this dense and this lonely. Hollow Knight is 40-plus hours of hand-drawn melancholy that will humble you, haunt you, and refuse to let go.
