What a gem, beautiful graphics and an interesting story. Really loved the puzzle challenge to the game, it was just the right difficulty as I get overwhelmed quite easily. I recommend completing the grove challenges and bounties as soon as you can as that will help with completing the story objectives. I played on the easiest setting and this is one of my top three games now.

I played this game way earlier in 2021 when it was on gamepass, and from the start i already felt a good vibes coming from the game. Fast forward to this year, i bought this game on steam and start it from the beginning again. This, this is an example of a developer that put so much love into their game. where players enjoyment is their priority. Just from the graphic style itself i already fell in love with the game. It looks so mesmerizing and beautiful. Every object looks perfect. And most importantly, they don't look boring. And then the music. Beautiful, perfect with the theme, except the end credit, which not bad, but expected more tune. The story feels like something from fairy tale, but with little bit of twist. The gameplay is ok, some people mention it likes pikmin, but i never play pikmin, so, i can't judge it. Most of it like a simple survival game, with health, looting, and crafting, but the main part is you control creatures like a spirit, and throw them to do combat, gathering items, and do most of the puzzles and quests. I really like how simple it sound but there wasn't a moment where i feel bored for long, they don't feel repetitive, since you have differen types of spirit where you can mix and match. The puzzles also great especially mid to late game. They're not overwhelming. Main or side characters also have fun personalities, that will keep you entertaining. The world has different biomes, but still keeping the style kind of same to the others. And there are some nice little detail that truly make the game immersive at some point. Like you can kick some objects, day and night cycle, interaction with npc's, and some different things between day and night, safe and outside safe area. Some critics tho, there are few glitches that either froze me, or just the character or objects twitching around in the background, but its so rare happen. And also the enemy spawn is really weird, its hard to explain, but they don't respawn so often. For me, this game close to being a masterpiece. I just love the whole vibe of the game. And i highly recommend this game to everybody, its one of the best hidden gem. 9.7/10

This game is a pikmin-like game. Its super fun. It took me about 13 hours to complete and I enjoyed every moment. The graphics/art style, music, and gameplay are all very satisfying. I highly recommend. My only nitpick complaint is that there aren't many boss battles (really only 1 at the end), just some tough enemies here and there.

This game is like a cozy storybook version of Overlord (2007). You command different varieties of woodland sprites to collect resources, unlock new areas, and defeat enemies in a magical woodland plagued by an ancient evil. Progression feels rewarding and varied, with a combination of exploration, crafting, and environmental puzzles. Combined with a beautiful 2.5D artstyle and a lovely soundtrack, The Wild at Heart is a strong recommend. Plus, it's published by Humble <3
