This was such a cute, relaxing short game. The art style is beautiful and wholesome, it reminds me of visual novel games I used to play as a kid. I was surprised to find it was free, then I read the description and realized it was fully made by a student and won an award for it! Well-deserved. I am hoping a longer version is released, or another game is developed by this developer.

The world building and concept displayed in this little teaser of a game make me yearn for a fully fleshed game. I loved the mystery detective element and the world of humans each with a fairy companion. There's a lot that could be explored. As this is a teaser, I believe a student project, it's a short little playthrough that ends on what can be argued as a cliffhanger, or a thought provoking perfect ending. If you're looking for a fun activity to spark your whimsy, I reccommend!

I see TREMENDOUS potential in the visual aspects alone, for a 3rd year project. Outside of it, maybe I'm a journalist but I got lost too many times. Movement is too stiff and slow. I couldn't finish it, as much as it pains me to admit. By the time I've made this review I hope everyone involved honed their skills to the max :)

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
