The Talos Principle

A series of first-person puzzle games developed by Croteam and partly published by Devolver Digital, The Talos Principle launched in 2014, and quickly stood out with its rare blend of demanding puzzles, philosophical storytelling and contemplative atmosphere. The first installment places the player in a bizarre world, halfway between ancient ruins, futuristic constructions and lush gardens, guided by a voice, that of an entity named Elohim, with logic puzzle solving, laser manipulation, switches and even robots.

After several DLCs and a sequel, The Talos Principle II, the saga will grow further with The Talos Principle III, announced for PC and PS5 for 2027. Presented as the ultimate chapter of this metaphysical fresco, this third installment should take advantage of contemporary consoles to offer environments of unprecedented scale and level of detail. Often mentioned alongside sagas like Portal for the quality of its game design, the series reigns over narrative puzzles, questioning humanity's place in a future dominated by AI.
