Flock Around

Chill, find birdies, take pics. This also includes the process of getting platinum though did not get DLCs. Pros: - visuals are cute and simple. The birds are iconically recognizable and the biomes are uniquely distinct. Fun easter eggs too. - the game runs smooth and is not very graphic-intensive. - audio sfx and bird sounds are accurate to my understanding. Naturally, there is geographical variation in bird songs but is easily forgiven. - cheap but has many hours finding birds and with friends, though I'm unsure how long the gameplay loop can hook friends in. The scrapbook is a cute and fun idea. - thank god for whistles and shiny bells to aid in platinum. There are upgrades that are indeed helpful and a good QOL thing to get. This was added with subsequent updates which I appreciate. Cons: - there is motion sickness so watch out for that. - gameplay loop gets stale after about 10 hours in the base game. Shiny and 3-star hunting does take a while bc of all the entries. You know what you're getting yourself into doing this. Simple game with friends to find birds. The more your friends like birds and nature, the better.

Fun. Ran okay (40-60 FPS, 144hz display).

8/10 - cute birdwatching game where the aim is to fill up your photo album with pictures of every bird. Ambient music, funny cosmetics and quality of life upgrades. Mostly relaxing - except for when a bird just won't get in the right pose... Feels similar to Webfishing! :D

I do this IRL too and its pretty much the same 10/10

super fun and chill! got my husband to play with me and he got super into it! <3 i think its a lot of fun with more people but i love screaming that you found the shiny bird and someone running to find you

I love birds. i love weird birds. this game has it all. take my money all the dlcs will be mine. now mind you most people don't but as an avid young bird lover i am IN LOVE with this game. my husband also likes to watch me play this game since its so calm 10/10 would recommend also love the loons.
