April 2025

This is around a two hour game. It's rather short, sorta calming and a little bit endearing. And it's aimed at children for the most part - for an adult it's not too great of a game for 10 bucks. If you're getting it for your child, sure. Controls are simple, puzzles are quite easy and there's no violence aside from squashing slimes. It did crash for me twice in those 2 hours. specifically when I picked up a collectible and opened a chest. I am a Linux user however, so that might be the reason behind it. Since I can't do a mixed for the recommendation, I'll go with recommending it.

This is a really nostalgic game for me because I played it on the Nintendo Wii as a kiddo, and I remember getting really stuck quite near the beginning, and never being able to progress to the main story. It was so fun and satisfying getting to play it all the way through this time! The PC version is slightly buggy in the beginning area and I had to restart the game a few times, but after that it ran smoothly, and it was delightful!

Unfortunately I am less even an hour in and already crashed 4 times. I have great nostalgia for this game but I'm not sure I can play it like this :/ Edit: I stopped crashing after that! So maybe it was an issue on my end. It was a nice and nostalgic experience ^^

4 out of 6 A very nice atmosphere and music. Every think is beautiful. The puzzles are challenging and promises a lot of fun. The story could have been better.
