Under Leaves

Stop describing the game as "accessible to everyone" when it is not. It doesn't matter if the game is a dollar or free. It's misleading. The developer's qualifier for acccessibility is "there is no text". Yet, this is not true. There is text, it's just in the form of a hint (technically an image that is unscrambled to reveal text). But text is text and anyone playing would need to be able to identify letters at the bare minimum to use the hint. More frustratingly, there is no settings menu. The game developers have defended this choice, which is fine, so long as they stop calling their game accessible. Not being able to alter audio is not accessible. Even having the option to mute a game can greatly improve accessibility. This game is often promoted and bundled with educational games, but itself misses the mark. When you find all the objects in an area, you receive an achievement related to the animal. The scientific name for the animal is included for many achievements, but some are missing the species and only have the genus. The inclusion of the scientific name also gives the game a sense of credibility and adds to the perception that it is educational, yet some of the hid…

I bought this game on sale, expecting to breeze through it, and then continue getting through my back log of games. However, within the first 5 mins of gameplay I was entranced, the soundtrack to each country is soothing, and the art style and colours are captivating. I actually slowed down and really started enjoying the game, spending time just admiring each landscape. This game does not hold your hand though, you even have to solve a puzzle to earn hints. I'd gotten through 20 areas on the main map before I realised you could double-click to zoom in on the landscapes, and then pan around to find the especially obscure objects! (Perception -1 on my part, I don't know...) It would have been nice if clicking on the animals in the landscapes provided some kind of interaction/animation - not a gripe, but a nice touch that would have added to the immersion. This game is so pleasing to the eye, perfect for anyone who loves nature soundscapes and needs some zero to low intensity gameplay. So what are you still reading for?! Treat yourself to some head empty, no thoughts time already, you've earned it!!!

A nice, cozy little game. I just wish the color contrast was better on some of the levels.

100% worth the price, it's really pretty and relaxing! :> wish there was a setting page for the music & sfx but no big deal. on the last puzzles my wife played with me and we both had fun<3

Enjoyable game. Took two play throughs to 100% it as I used hints the first play through. The items are really hidden well and are close to all the colors in the background. The music works really well with the game.

Nice cozy game, sometimes it´s little bit harder to find everything without the hints, but it´s allright, so yes, I recommend this game.
