I was beautifully surprised by this game. I don't know how far I am into the game already, but I can tell you it is just... ok, get this: Do you love Pikmin? Do you love the short films Pixar shows before their movies or on DVD? This has the same type of charm. If you just ant to get lost in a wondrous world that speaks a language that is not written but still 100% understandable, this is the game for you. I got it during the sale and I honestly would have paid full price as well. It will make you smile. 100% guaranteed. Beautiful visuals, beautiful beautiful music, I personally recommend playing in windowed mode, for some reason that felt like the best for me. Puzzles are not too challenging. Like I said, if you are looking for a relaxing trip that puts your mind somewhere else, this is it. Like waking up from a great dream. When was the last time that happened to you? Long? Well, you can buy a good dream at a time now!

Light, poetic, charming and full of original ideas. A masterpiece.

very calming. so good. happy thoughts. a life saver! :)

A beautiful world with a soul, where the group of several adorable friends are trying to do something good together. We can learn from them.

Not because the game came out when I was six, but because playing it makes me feel the way I did when I was six and Mom read to me from a picture book. It's not so much a game as a constant stream of things which make you laugh, point and stare in fascination. I've played a lot of games, but I don't think I've ever seen another one which filled me with a childish sense of wonder. If i had to describe the game in one word it would be: "Clever" If I could use a second word it would be "Unique" The visuals are spectacularly good. Some screens are beautifl you'll just want to stare at them like a painting long after you're done with the puzzle. The sound design is delightfully bizarre and matches the tone perfectly. The world has a great feeling of interactivity, and the puzzles flow by with a sort of dream logic that just works...only don't think about them too hard or your brain will hurt.
