Nice intercourse between Samorost 3 I love and Creaks I'm waiting for. The game is really small, one can go through it in an hour or two, but graphics and soundtrack are great.
As I focused more on aesthetics, I've bought this game once I saw screenshots and wasn't disappointed. It is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played, with brilliant drawings, very nice story to tell the player and good soundtrack. Story is focused on a 12 yo boy at the last days of his summer break. He receives a letter, that appeared in thin air with a ritual to summon a friend. When he completes a ritual, Marquis de Hoto comes to him - a giant rabbit, taller than the boy. He says that boy (who is into magic tricks) can become a might magician, traveling between worlds and helping others. And he will be home by dinner! After that, he invites Jerry Hazelnut to Mousewood where he will learns new spells and learn to help people... well, not people - habitats in need. I would enjoy even watching this story as a cartoon, but this is also a game. Point-and-click quest, what I liked since times of Myst III, Neverhood, Freddy Fish etc. And this is where most games fail: it is incredibly difficult to make all puzzles logical enough so that the solution wouldn't be clicking on every point around with all you have in your inventory. Well, mostly they succeeded, but sometimes player must guess and spend lot of time solving really stupid puzzle. As for bugs, I've found 3: boy can walk on destroyed stick in the house of Aro, if one clicks too many times at the hole in the floor at the end, he will stuck and will have to restart, and one can stay after end credits if he talks to someone at the moment they must end. A little bit raw game, but still so pretty drawn, with such a good story and music, that I can't give it anything but 5 stars.
