10 Best Indie Platformer Video Games On PS4

9. Unravel

Unravel 2015

Unravel easily earns its place as one of the most charming and visually impressive platformers that we€™ve seen all year. It follows Yarnie, a small anthropomorphic creature spun from red yarn, whose sole purpose is to restore the long lost memories of yesteryear.

Across your journey you€™ll often find yourself pausing to take in the beauty that surrounds you, as Yarnie and the game€™s Norwegian landscape truly feel alive. Moments like catching him shudder in the wind or flinch in the path of ravenous predators add a compelling sense of realism, despite its whimsical nature.

Stunning visuals aren€™t all Unravel has to offer, either, as puzzle solving feels incredibly engaging, requiring you to manipulate different aspects of the environment. This often involves using Yarnie€™s threads to create bridges, lassos and trampolines, all to make your way across the truly gorgeous landscape.
