I truly enjoyed this game and would definately recommend it. I love games that makes one think. Good Lord knows I need it because I just turned 81 this Dec 23. I adore games like Boxes and wished there were more of them.

This game is very special to me as it's the first game I ever played. My dad brought home what would be the family desktop one day and downloaded it through the ColibriGames site for me and my brother before it was even put on Steam. Without it, I'm not sure gaming as a whole would've captured me the way it has since then, so I hold the experience it gave me close to my heart. Rose-tinted glasses aside, upon my recent reply, this game is still just as good as it was when I first played it. It's not a very long game, but it gives you what you came for: A relaxing point-and-click puzzle game with a gorgeous artstyle and soundtrack. The art is textbook 2000's, with all the wonky proportions, the vibrancy of the colors, and overall expressiveness that's become more and more rare these days; the product of a better time on the internet. What's always amazed me is how it doesn't feel dated at all. Having everything hand-drawn with little movement to throw things off keeps it just this nice bundle of art with the little bits of interactive changes. It's insanely charming and is always a joy to look at while solving the puzzles. The puzzles themselves are pretty good as well for what they are. A lot of them are particularly tricky as they have really vague completion requirements, but I prefer that over them being breezy and letting you blow past the levels. There's no dialogue or text whatsoever besides grunts from the NPC's, and a hint system, having you collect a certain amount of (what seem like) dragonflies to unlock a pointer to an item you missed. It's very basic but that's all you need in a game like this. Personally, I love the lack of dialogue as it let's me relax and immerse with the music and maintains the feeling of complete serenity throughout each section. This game is perfect if you just want something to sit down with for an hour or two, do a handful of puzzles and really wind down and immerse yourself in something for a bit. It's not abundant in terms of length, plot or gameplay, but that's it's strength as it offers more than enough for what it is.

I love the art style of this game, and even 14 years after the release it really stands the test of time. There are only 5 levels of finding items and fitting them into a variety of classic puzzles, which makes for a very short game, but at £0.85 it is a good value for money ratio. There are frustrating moments where the clues are not helpful, some items fail to trigger on click (not sure if it was a bug) and it has a peculiarity to open in a small windowed mode, with a workaround provided in a form of a full-screen button toggle in the top right. If you enjoy classic puzzles and hand-drawn artwork you'll find this game a delightful diversion, especially if bought on deep discount.

Such beautiful and calm puzzle game! Music, art, puzzle difficulty, thankful for the ability of hints too in the form of cute critters :) That "click" sound when picking the puzzle pieces was just that perfect little detail for me! Absolutely recommended.

I enjoyed this game greatly. I'm not good at action, shoot'em-up games, preferring puzzles and strategy games that help my brain (I've had a stroke), and this game was perfect. I struggled with the 'boat going through the channels' and the 'flying simulator' games, but overall, I really loved playing this game. Also, the artwork is lovely.
