Gorogoa

Released in 2017 by Jason Roberts. I saw an early demo of this at GDC and watched for its release. When it finally came out I found it satisfying and about what I expected - some beautiful art and clever puzzles, if a little short and not adding up to a whole lot compared to later Myst games. IIRC Roberts hadn't made a game before and was surprised by the traction he got early on with this.
