Hollow Reef Expedition

Hollow Reef Expedition is more about mood than challenge, and that's a compliment. You guide a diver through sunken ruins, solving gentle environmental puzzles and uncovering a quiet story told through murals and logs.

Movement is a simple drag-to-swim system that feels natural once you settle in. The puzzles rarely stump you for long, which keeps the sense of discovery flowing rather than grinding to a halt.

If you're after something calm to wind down with, this hits a lovely spot. I played most of it in one long, happy evening and only stopped because my battery gave out before I did.

What we liked
