Oct. 2025
Leaves: The Journey is a surreal little point-and-click that feels less like a traditional game and more like stepping into a strange interactive collage. Built by the indie studio ZAR 21, it drops you into a dreamlike world inhabited by the Treefruities, whose leaves have blown away. Your task is to solve puzzles, recover the leaves and gradually piece together this bizarre universe. What immediately stands out is the art style. It’s not polished in a conventional sense, it looks hand-cut, stitched together from textures, doodles and odd photographs. That rawness gives it personality, making every scene feel like you’ve opened a page in some eccentric art journal. Combined with an eerie, minimalist soundtrack, the presentation is both unsettling and oddly charming. The puzzles are the main draw here. They’re varied, often clever, and rarely spelled out, forcing you to really pay attention to patterns, sounds and visual cues. Some can be quite obscure and the game offers little in the way of hand-holding, which will either frustrate or delight depending on your tolerance for old-school design. The lack of dialogue or narrative framing also means the experience relies almost entirely on atmosphere and puzzle design to keep you engaged. It’s short but dense enough to feel satisfying if you’re in the mood for something different. Don’t expect a traditional story or familiar logic; this is abstract puzzling through and through. Leaves: The Journey isn’t for everyone. It’s strange, minimal and sometimes opaque. But for players who enjoy experimental art games and puzzles that require a bit of lateral thinking, it’s an oddly hypnotic little detour well worth taking.

These 2 games are cute puzzle solving games. I don't think I could get through them without a guide though.

This is a combined review of both the LEAVES games (Journey and Return). I absolutely can't get enough of the art style, the dreamy surreal landscapes and objects that feel like something recovered from a forgotten quirky artist's overgrown garden. The puzzles are everything from interesting and entertaining to repetitive and difficult but I just really like spending time in this world. Wouldn't mind another game in the series.
