    Talos is so good! I think too many people discard it as a Portal clone, but it very much is its own thing. And it's so much more than just a puzzle game, the most interesting part is the story and presentation, not even the puzzles, as good as they are.

    J.U.L.I.A. is cool too, a flawed game, but I liked it quite a bit. I hope it sold well enough, for developers to make another adventure game.

      Yeah, Talos is something special. I think comparing Talos to a 'Portal clone' is probably disingenuous of me. It's really a super game that stands on it's own. The mechanics are reminiscent (more of a 'first-person-puzzle-game'). The lore and philosophy really bring out the story as well. Lots of eye candy as well. Never hurts ;)
