A mysterious box, a dimly lit room and a puzzle sitting within an optical illusion. Moncage is the perfect place to definitively prove your smarts.

What we love: How much there is to discover. To solve the puzzles, you’ll need to search for clues, flip switches and open drawers, all to move forward in the game. Along the way, you’ll find photos that contain memories. But whose memories are they, and what is the fragmented story they tell?

Quick tip: When you see similarities between two worlds – for example, the same car might appear in both – tilt the box carefully to find the angle where they overlap. In the case of the car, that overlap will create a single vehicle that will drive off and allow you to progress.

Meet the creator: Moncage was developed by Optillusion, a two-person indie studio based in New York.
