Explore a new world

65 games with filters by mode, platforms, budget, length and features.

Exploration is the engine of these games: fog on the map, a cave behind the waterfall and the hope that something waits over the next hill. Story is often secondary here — curiosity comes first.

Look for open worlds by tag and metroidvanias in their genre: their exploration works differently, through locked doors. Both are in this collection.
