He Who Watches

Walk on walls, walk on ceilings, and bend gravity itself to solve over 100 devious puzzles in this atmospheric first-person head-scratcher.

He Who Watches drops you inside a structure that shouldn’t make sense, and honestly, that’s the whole point. Every wall and ceiling is fair game as a walkable surface, and you’ll be shifting gravity constantly to find the path forward. It’s a proper brain workout, the kind of game where you’ll stare at a room for ages before that satisfying click finally happens.

Your main tool is a magical bow and arrow, but don’t expect any combat here. You’ll use it to open doors, shove blocks about, flick switches, and grapple yourself across gaps. Combine that with the constantly shifting perspective and you get puzzle chambers that genuinely mess with your head in the best way.

Solo developer Bobby Vanden has packed in over 100 handcrafted puzzles here, published with help from the puzzle experts at Draknek & Friends, so you know the quality’s there. There’s a hint system if you get properly stuck, plus secrets tucked into every corner for the curious types. Somewhere at the centre of all this sits an imprisoned god, waiting to see if you’re clever enough to reach him.
