Haven Park

I would never have bought this game, I only have it because I caught it when free earlier this year. £7 full price is overpriced IMO, I'd sell this for £3.99 maxiumum. You are "Flint" an anthropomorphic duck (they should have made you Uncel Dolan!) who becomes warden of a reserve that rather reminds me of that DLC for Fallout New Vegas that was set in Utah. There's even a slight post-apocalyptic vibe that this is the world long after humans have gone and animals have developed intelligence. Basically you just explore the park, uncovering the map, visit 12 different campsites across this map, developing and maintaining them, and keep the other wandering anthropomorphic animal campers happy. They provide a few side quests to go on as well. Estimates say 3 - 4 hours of gameplay, well I reckon you can get more than just that out of it, and it's not that "tiny" as many descriptions (even the game's own title screen) say. Everything is simple as, and is an ideal game for youngsters. It's ain't brilliant, but it does harm a certain charm to it, even for adults!

This is a nice gem of a game that made me feel stuff similar to A Short Hike. If you enjoy exploration at all with a little bit of management then try out this game.

Started playing today and already put in almost 9 hours of game play. With that being said, the game did crash on me twice and it did glitch to where I couldn't use my 'notepad' and switch through the different pagesn (I exit to the main menu and reopened my game and it worke fine). Besiding that, this is a great game; I ended up losing about 2 minutes of game play due to the game crashing, but the game autosaves, so I didn't lose anything too major. A very "cozy like" game in which there is repetition and small quests to complete on your way to the other camps. Reminds me of Cattails and Sprouts Valley in the way of cozy--however, less farming and more traveling and gathering items. You can use 'A,S,W,D' (or the arrow keys) and the other keys needed are 'E' and 'Spacebar' so you can relax with your keyboard on your lap while playing or adjust the controls to your liking. Very cute, cozy and cathartic. Rating so far is PG. Nothing is killed in this game, the most you do is catch fireflies and use them as a lightsource. 10/10

My first reaction once I got into this game is how stinkin' cute it is. And from there you just kinda meander around fixing up the various camp spots on the mountain--everything goes at your own pace with no rush. I tend to get lost a lot in any game that requires navigation but here it doesn't matter. It's the type of game I can easily put twenty hours into just goofing off going to and fro, and that is actually something I enjoy very much.

This was a cute little game. The story is sweet, and there are some fun side quests. For a freebie little game, it was a really nice, relaxing playthrough.
