The Gardens Between is a nice puzzle game where you control time to go through the levels. The puzzles are not too difficult, the designs are good and the ambiant is cozy. I recommend it!!! 💗💗💗

A bittersweet time manipulation puzzle that only has 3 control buttons - left, right and space. However don't let the easy controls and the charming graphics + relaxing ambient distract you (honestly though it is super relaxing especially the rain sounds). The puzzles are a bit on the easier side, but some levels do require running back and forth to solve it. In the end it is still pretty satisfying to solve when u had that "Aha!" moment. One feedback though, I wish we could press shift or something to make them run back and forth a bit faster. Especially needed when the levels require a lot of time scrolling. Game does run a bit short, but I think it is worth the price. Definitely recommended, both for the unique concept and the relaxing vibe overall. Looking forward to more games from the dev!

Short and cute little puzzle adventure with time manipulation mechanics similar to Arise. This game gives all the nostalgic feels. Especially if you've ever had to say goodbye as a child. You use very simple controls to solve puzzles, obtain achievements and build the memories that last when friendship is confronted by the test of distance. Definitely buy on sale. I'd say it's appropriately priced at $9.99 rather than $19.99.

Amazing art style, I love that the journey is always together. It's very calming and a great game to just kick back and play. All achievements are simply accomplished by playing through the game which is lovely and convenient. I really enjoyed playing through and I'd definitely play this times over :))
