The Earth's climate is shot, so everyone's furries now! Indeed, that's how the game's exposition starts. Once that's out of the way, you are introduced to the game's core mechanic, the fixing minigame. It's a simple point-and-click affair, perhaps a bit childish. If you don't know what do do with something, there are always very direct hints. That said, the fact that new mechanics are introduced regularly keeps this fresh. Once you land on the planet, and your tools are confiscated, you meet the very human robots that you will be interacting with for most of the game. You will be fixing their machines, their villages, their relationships, their lives, and each step of this will get you closer to your own goal. In general, the story is generally low threat and just a bit emotional, but you will certainly get invested. Overall the game is quite fun and relaxing, if a bit repetitive. (There are quite a few things that you do four times) Neither the puzzles or the (very occasional) action is particularly difficult, but they both support and pace the story nicely. However, there are some mechanics that don't feel quite as well thought-out as they could have been. The worst is the world scramble, happening between most chapters, which doesn't seem to achieve much of anything other than a bit of annoyance. There are two camps trying to confiscate your things, but there are two ways of keeping each at bay. It all makes sense with the story, but again, it feels like both takes away just a bit too much of the player's time and attention. There are also two whole ways of fast travel, plus a chaotic network of shortcuts. That said, these are all pretty minor annoyances in the grand scheme of things. Over all, I would recommend this game!
