Altered

About

Altered is a puzzle game where you solve environmental challenges by adapting your character's traits. Each level forces you to experiment with different abilities like shifting gravity or changing size to unlock paths. The single player experience focuses on quiet problem solving with minimal narrative distractions. The game balances its calm aesthetic with tricky brain teasers that often require revisiting earlier levels with new tools. Released in 2021 by Glitchheart, it runs on PC Linux and Mac. Player forums note the difficulty spikes occasionally but praise the clean visuals and satisfying "aha" moments.
