What do a dreaming slug, bunnie chasing and making sushi for robots have in common? They make great themes for indie puzzle games, apparently!
To celebrate the kick-off of the Cerebral Puzzle Showcase, the puzzle game fund Astra is helping to launch 3 promising puzzle titles today on Steam
The 3 games with extremely good titles are:
As part of Astra’s commitment to elevate the thinking game genre, all three games received support via the Astra Fund Fellowships or the Astra/Draknek New Voices programme. The three games will also be available in a special “Astra Community Spotlights” bundle for an extra 20% off.

Title: Sushi for Robots
Links: Steam page / Trailer / Press kit
About: Sushi for Robots is a game about Robots obsessed with sushi. And you’re the one serving it to them. Robots are picky (and kinda goofy) so make sure they get their food in time but don’t worry: You can always press reset to experiment and find creative solutions. Besides solving puzzles you also have to be creative: use stickers to change the behaviour of dishes and please your robotic clientele.
Title: A Slug’s Dream
Links: Steam page / Trailer / Press kit
About: A Slug’s Dream is the best game ever made about a slug’s dream. A challenging yet accessible puzzle game about guiding an adorable slug dreaming about scrumptious flowers through increasingly complex and carefully handcrafted puzzles. The goal of each puzzle is to eat all the flowers, and then reach for the exit. It’s not easy being "hangry" when you’re just a little gastropod having to deal with warping portals, different types of blocks, life-threatening elements and more.
Title: Pâquerette Down the Bunburrows
Links: Steam page / Release trailer / Press kit
About: Pâquerette Down the Bunburrows is a pathfinding-based bunny-catching puzzle game. The bunnies flee when Pâquerette gets too close: they dash through tunnels carefully avoiding dead ends. Will you let the lil buns outsmart you? Each level is carefully crafted to teach you new, surprising and tricky ways of catching bunnies. Use the bunnies' smart yet predictable behaviours against them and use tools such as traps, pickaxes and carrots when things get tricky!
