I've played it a few times. It doesn't do much for me, but it's cute and fun... until near the end. My first complaint is about the length of the game. It's very short and repetitive. I thought there was going to be a second chapter where you go somewhere else, from the sentence 'Paco is on the run!' and the fact that the book of animals says 'Biome - Mediterranean'. There isn't really any music, and some elements of the game seem a little... well, illogical? I know that red squirrels are endangered, yet they are listed as 'Common' here. There's a weird combination of Spanish and English dialogue. The characters are trying to send the message that we are destroying the environment. 'Ooh, nasty agriculture!' 'Rubbish building corporation!' Not all companies are like that! The characters have some really bad attitude! Not only that, but some animals are really hard to snap. They hide in the most unexpected places, and some of them (the birdies obviously) fly past so hastily that you can't shoot (the camera); it took me five minutes to catch the Barn Swallow, and it was impossible to take a picture of what I think is the Marsh Harrier. I like how quirky it is though, so I'd give it four stars, and it's a nice little game to relax with... if you like angry treehuggers, and are possibly one yourself, that is.

This game looks a lot like a copy of A Short Hike, which is a great game. This isn't too bad, but I can't really bring myself to give it some thunderous applause or anything. There are quite a few bugs. Sometimes the game will randomly shut down on you, or the 'notebook' will stop moving. There are typos as well. 'Can not' is always spelt as two words, there's a strange lack of contractions, and some dialogue doesn't make sense. I think some of it might have been translated from a foreign language. The game is pretty repetitive as well. Pick up resources, build buildings, fix broken thingamajigs, talk to characters. The map annoys me too. It doesn't show your position on the map, only the 'camps' you've already found, and if you go into the mine and look at the map, it will show you this silly text 'There are no camps in the mine'. At least some of it's amusing... My one biggest complaint is the shortness. If you want the option of longer play or speedruns, I recommend A Short Hike, but in this, to complete the game takes about 3 hours if you're careful (I've managed to beat it in an evening), and they've missed the opportunity to turn some elements of the game into side quests. But it's not all bad. The graphics are half-decent, the exploration element is nice, and all in all it's very calm. So there you have it. An OK game for fans of Walking Simulator-type games, but if you want the real deal, I'd recommend A Short Hike over this.

I'm a big fan of the King's Bounty Series but this game is a broken and buggy mess. This is my experience... In the game you meet various valkyrie characters and recruit them to your army. I made the mistake of clicking on the first valkyrie twice when she didn't disappear from the map onto the character screen. I noticed later that she appeared twice on the character screen. When I recruited the last valkyrie the game crashed. The last valkyrie is automatically added after a boss fight so you can't avoid the game crashing. I'd put about 50 hours into the game at this point. Oh well I thought it's just one bug. I'll try again with a different character class. I chose to play as the skold. After the first few battles I had managed to aquire a huge amount of leadership points which would have made all subsequent battles a pushover. This defeats the purpose of the game. As well as the above mentioned problems the text is chock full of spelling mistakes and misplaced line breaks. A few hours with a native English speaker could easily have corrected all this. Until this game is patched (which is unlikely as they've just released another one) I'd give it a miss.
