Nihilumbra

Nihilumbra is a pretty Sidescroller/Jump & Run/puzzle adventure that is a graphic and basic Game principle reminiscent of limbo, but comes up with a great Story that, as with Bastion, is gradually produced by a mysterious Narrator during the Playing is revealed. The whole thing is still spiced up by game and Puzzle elements reminiscent of Portal 2, and topped by a coherent Soundtrack. One starts as a Being in the Void and gradually learns the Game world, its Mechanisms and also oneself. On the Journey you will discover different Colors, which you have to use and combine in a similar way to the gels in Portal 2 in order to get through the different Levels. For example, you can ice the Ground to slither through more quickly under Stompers. In each of the 5 Worlds, which in turn Consist of at least 8 different Levels, one discovers a new Color and thus a new Ability. The Levels flow directly into each other, but you can play directly again via the Card any Level after Unlocking. As The game progresses, fast Levels, in which you have to reach the End in a process of Jump-and-run fashion under Time pressure, alternate with slower Levels in which you have to solve light "Puzzles" in order to get further. Along the Way, there are many Hazards, but also more than enough Memory Points, so you don't have to play through half the level again if you get stuck in one Place. If you are not averse to a small jump & run adventure with a few puzzle insoles, I can only recommend Nihilumbra because of the profound History and the artistic Atmosphere. And since after the first Play a new Mode is unlocked for all Levels, in which the Levels are partially changed and therefore much heavier, you can easily get 6-10 Hours of Gameplay for your Money here (depending on Your skill).
