A wonderful game

A really sweet and fun game. It’s a bit short but the puzzles are engaging and original. It’s not like any other puzzle/escape game I’ve played. Much of the puzzling is figuring out what exactly is required, and there was a lot of exploring and interacting with the environment to find the solutions, but it’s all there if you look carefully and try different things. And like every game, once you get a sense of how the dev thinks, it all opens up. Each time I found a solution it was so satisfying, and the stunningly beautiful artwork makes it a pleasure to spend time in this world. The music is also wonderful. Well done, dev! I hope you’re at work on your next game. 😀 Now I have to go play it again to see if I can find more secrets.

This game is fabulous! My husband & I started playing it this evening & we couldn’t put it down. Chapter after chapter had us enthralled & intrigued. The puzzles are so much fun! A couple of times we were tempted to cheat & look for a walkthrough but then my hubby figured it out so we didn’t need to. We sat & pondered & thought & wondered & finally figured each chapter out. The only complaint I have is that now we’re going to bed way later than we intended! WHAT A GREAT GAME. Thank you very much to the creators. (We’ll be playing it again just to get the “secrets” in each chapter, as we didn’t find them all). Wow…we had such fun!
Fantastic!

This game is fantastic! Beautiful art style and relaxing music. The puzzle difficulty ramps up a bit towards the end of the game but never gets too crazy. The game is not very long. A single playthrough will probably take you 1 to 2 hours at the most. However, the quality of the game and the price make this an easy buy in my opinion.Point and click games like Pajama Sam and Spy Fox were a big part of my childhood so this game feels very nostalgic to me. Highly recommended.

The ultimate compliment: I just want more! Such clever puzzles with such entertaining results. There’s no hand-holding, you’ll have to tap around a lot and experiment, but the puzzles are logical and not too difficult. The art is utterly charming and I laughed out loud on many occasions. It’s hard to find gems like this amid the mass of f2p junk out there, and I’m so glad I got to go on this adventure with Milo (and the magpies!).
