Finished the main story of this game a while ago and decided to go back for the rest of the achievements this week. Saved the phone call for last and I'm so glad I did because WOW it made me so much more emotional than I could have expected. This game has so much heart and feels like I was gifted a box of toys. There are so many fun little things to do even outside of the main mechanic of catching bugs and hearing their stories. It feels like the perfect little hideaway to just sit around and play some instruments or decorate little snow buddies. The story is honestly a lot more somber than I thought it would be with such silly characters in the stars, but I think it works well. Simply lovely.

I will bask in an array of pastels as they wash over every contour of my body. I am not important, and none of this was for the sake of others, it was all for my own. That's why it matters. The sound of this game was simply enveloping, and I hope to come back to it later on down the road. I've enjoyed my time with this simple marsh a lot.

Paradise Marsh is a nature-themed walking sim about restoring fallen stars to their celestial glory. This game has some great atmosphere, with the pixel graphics and calming soundtrack giving it a charming and cozy vibe. The creature designs are very cute, and it was fun wandering around the world in search of them all. There are some themes of nature and philosophy here, and the dialogue got surprisingly dark at times for what was otherwise a peaceful and uplifting game, but that made it all the more memorable for me. The achievement hunter's grind was a bit miserable, with some fish and one creature (tadpole) being particularly brutal to find. The developer seems to care a lot about this project, and the end result is a game full of love that's easy to recommend.

I think some of the best games are not those that do everything, but those that do enough to make you want to step away from the game and do something in real life. Paradise Marsh makes me want to engage more with nature around me. It's a soothing game about restoring the stars through exploring a marsh. The creatures, sounds, colors; Everything harmonizes into a charming, tranquil lil package. The writing can range from fun and lite to touching and introspective, and just well spaced out enough to not interrupt the gameplay loop. It's all very well put together, doing a lot, but not too much. The game is best experienced when played in one go. If you've got a free evening I suggest dimming the lights and diving in.

A beautiful game about finding stars that have fallen to the ground and taken on their 'original' form as bugs (and a few other critters). This game has some real insightful aspects to it. Meaningful messages about looking into yourself and the meaning of things around you. While you might expect all the constellations to give you high-spirited, inspirational messages, some are actually highly relatable about… wanting to give up. Feeling paranoid. Feeling lost. Not what I expected, but I loved it. The gameplay is very simple - run around and catch bugs in a world that has a limited set of biomes, but they generate around you as you move. It means it can be hard to find the one you're looking for sometimes, but honestly, it's a small enough world that it won't take long. Certain critters spawn in certain territories, and you can also catch some spirits to unlock bigger spirits that'll give you other tools, such as a fishing rod or a radio walkie talkie thing. Achievements I cannot speak for, as they appear to be broken for steam deck. I know of at least myself and one other user who did not unlock any on their steam deck, so I'm imagining it's a problem with that, though I could be wrong. I did post in the discussions, so hopefully they'll be fixed! Overall, most seemed simple with maybe a few that might take a little bit. The art is simplistic but beautiful. The music really set the mood, and it just felt like a real nice time playing it. I was able to beat the game in one sitting quite easily, though I did feel a bit bored come the end. It might have felt better to split it into two play sessions. I'm not sure the game would be worth it at full price, but having got it on sale for around $5, it was definitely worth it! Especially considering it was a solo dev. I wish them luck on their future endeavors!
