A free puzzling platformer with a fantastical world

Linn: Path of Orchards is a beautiful runner and platformer developed by MOBASO. Free to download on Google Play, Apple Store, and Nintendo Live, it comes with a paid in-app upgrade. Also available for Xbox One and PS 4 users, the game explores the myth of the Tree of Life, which must be rejuvenated.

As with Chants of Sennaar, the graphics are stunning. In fact, they are reminiscent of Monument Valley. But the world of Linn is set in a fantastic ancient world where only Aban can outsmart dynamic platforms and physics-bending obstacles using logic and speed to restore order.

Who can play it?

Only available in English, this puzzle platformer is suitable for all ages. Designed for iOS and Android devices, the game is also available on the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PS4. However, it requires nimble-fingered play to access all the extra content.

What is it about?

In this stunning platformer slash endless runner, surfaces are in continual motion, often centrifugal and defying gravity. Aban, a guardian of nature, must try to rescue the Tree of Light by perpetually running, bouncing, changing direction, and dashing toward safety. Traveling across the sky temple, they collect orbs and special artifacts for completing levels, often pressed for time.

What’s special about it?

Apparently inspired by the Monument Valley series, this 2D platformer and runner is a fast-paced and physics-bending game. Immaculate play guarantees extra levels and chapters. With a total of 56 levels across 4 chapters, the game never gets boring.

Heals nature and soul

This beautiful 2D platformer claims to raise the IQ, which is an overstatement. But undoubtedly, what it can do is keep players entertained for a couple of hours with stunning graphics, an enchanting storyline, and challenging puzzles.
