Beautiful, moving game with an important message. Easy controls, great for new gamers.2 found this helpful
This game is so fun!! Yes its sad but my gosh like it's the most fun game I have ever played! I love Swinging games. The controls are so easy after the first chapter and each chapter isn't even 10 minutes long. It's quick but there are so many adventures! I haven't even finished the game! I can tell I'm not even close to being finished because I see some people have played 14 hours when I just played 1 hour lol. If I could pick 1 game to play for my whole life it would be this game! Please get the game, it is so worth it! You might not believe me but you wont regret it!1 found this helpful

The colors and the layering of the various objects really made for some great eye candy. The gameplay took a bit to get used to, even out of the tutorial, but it was well worth it for the story that followed. Most games try to make you feel something related to their fictional and fantastic worlds, but this game keeps you tied to the reality of our own world. There was one chapter where I caught myself thinking. "When is this going to end? Jumping on rooves is no fun." And I realized then that this was exactly what the developers wanted you to feel. You think gibbons have fun with their habitats taken away from them? Their children, their trees, their food? Absolutely not. This game reminds you of that through the gameplay, the art, the music, as well as through direct messages indicatin…1 found this helpful
its a good game but a bit over priced
Super fun game with polished mechanics. The story is really beautiful and emotional, very informative and really inspiring. Highly recommend for a couple hours of fun and chill gameplay, and replay-ability is nice with the daily generated challenges that are fun to come back to now and then.
