Botanicula

I love all Amanuensis ta Design's games. They are perfect in game development. I have played machinarium, Samorost 3, Botanicula games for many times in past years. Also you have to watch their Kooky animation.

Amanita Designs has come out on Apple Arcade. I’d never heard of them before, being a Mac girl. They are so creative with their characters, organic imagery, and music. I did need help but didn’t mind going back through. It would have been helpful to have a map, which I think the Steam version had. The last chapter is quite the labyrinth. And somewhere to get clues or a nudge, which Somorost 3 has, but wasn’t clear what you are meant to do. (The eye puzzle opens the clue book).

No instructions, no clue what the purpose is, unresponsive, no guidance, nothing. Literally nothing.

Very nice and interesting game. Ended up finishing it. but there is a bug on part nine. I was playing the game for the second time when I noticed it. In part nine you are supposed to collect the five light sources to get to the spider right? Well when I played I could just go down into the giant mouth without all the light sources! Fix this bug and it will be five stars instead of four.

I got this game when I was 3 years old and I had no idea what it was but I loved it! I did get a nightmare about the parasites.but then I played it when I was a little bit older with my babysitter and we finally beat the game! We did get a little help from YouTube.but just saying this is my favorite game! But level 9 might scare some kids.I love botanicula!!! It would be fun if there was a number 2 !

But this game it’s the best

I thought this might be too silly for me but it wasn’t. It was fun and sweet with beautiful artwork. It moves at a good pace and the challenges were just right.

Good game

Just to start off, I absolutely love this game and all the other games made by Amanita Design. It has that sort of charm that Amanita Design always has. To the characters to the gameplay, everything is pretty much everything I want from a puzzle game. GAMEPLAY The gameplay, like all Amanita Design games, is very enjoyable. A classic puzzle game, but still unique in its own way. I like how you can do sort of side puzzles to collect “Creature Cards”, as some people call them. As far as the main puzzles go, I’d say they aren’t the most difficult puzzles I’ve done but they still make you think for a while. That’s what I like about these games. They’re hard enough so the game feels longer, but they’re not so hard that they’ll make you rage quit. To sum it up, I rate the gameplay a 4.5/5. VISUALS The visuals are what makes Amanita Design’s games so unique. Throughout the game you can definitely tell it’s a cartoonish style, but it kind of looks weirdly realistic, similar to Samorost. The characters are usually animated while the background sort of looks real. It certainly is enjoyable to look at. I give these astounding visuals a 5/5. MUSIC Botanicula isn’t really known for its music like Undertale and Cuphead are, but the music certainly adds a lot to the theme of the game. For example, when you’re getting chased by a creature, such as an ant or a crab-like insect, the music gets fast paced and dramatic, like most video games do. I think the singing frogs definitely deserve a shoutout in this review. I mean they certainly have skill. With that said, I rate the music 4.7/5, because of how great it fits the theme. STORYLINE A vital part of every game is a creative story line, and this game certainly has one. If you’re reading this and haven’t played the game, let me just sum up the storyline for you. Basically, there’s this spider thing and it starts eating this tree and gets more powerful every time it eats a leaf. A little orange guy saves a seed from the tree, and he teams up with his friends to plant it. You journey across the tree, and meet a bunch of colorful and amazing characters. From giant bees to little tiny lizards, you’ll see it all. For the storyline altogether I rate it a 4/5. FINAL RATING Although I may have not gave every category a perfect score, I still think this game deserves a 5/5. The charm, the art, the music, all of it is simply astounding. If the creators can somehow read this, let me just say, you did a great job. And on that

The art style, plot, unique characters, and uplifting soundtrack makes for one of the best games I have ever played
