I had no idea this existed and I can't believe I never heard of it when it's so unique! Is it actually a good game, too?

It has been quite a while since I played it, but I remember it being pretty good but with a combat system that takes some getting used to.

This is what I would suggest. Very unique art style and still memorable all these years later.

Rock of Ages jumps out as an obvious one for me.

One area of The Talos Principle is set in Greco-Roman ruins. It captues a very specific tone. The puzzles are fun too

The style I suspect that you're thinking of, if you're talking about the stuff on pottery, is one of:

Any of the Joe Richardson games are obvious picks.

  • Four Last Things
  • A Procession of Cavalry
  • Death of the Reprobate
