Nicalis action platformers and puzzles

If you like tough platforming, strange dungeons and clever puzzles, these seven games from Nicalis, Inc. give you plenty to explore and replay.

If you enjoy direct action with a lot of challenge and replay value, this collection from Nicalis, Inc. gives you different ways to play. Cave Story+ lets you explore side-view areas, fight bosses and upgrade guns, while The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth sends you through changing rooms where new item combinations alter each run. Crystal Crisis turns that same quick thinking toward matching colors in battles where you clear pieces to attack. Around them you will find strict platforming, quiet physics puzzles and a short holiday stealth outing.
