Natural interaction with beautiful world

I purchased this game as I loved Machinarium. There was no expectation that Botanicula would be like Machinarium but I wanted to give it a try as it was developed by the same group.

In many ways I think Botanicula is a great complement to Machinarium. Machinarium has great logical puzzles that make sense and have a very logical sense to them, which goes with the theme of the robots and industrial city, etc.. I fell in love the first time I played it. These developers took a great risk to move away from that formula and in Botanicula to bring a lighter more natural interaction and exploration of your environment with many different creatures. It is very fitting to have the more organic puzzels and thinking with this game being based around creatures and plants.

If you buy in to the first scene and realize that your team of creatures are the last hope for this dying world being sucked away by a “blackhole” creature, this game can reveal a lot of beauty. Play this game if you just want a few minutes or hours of happiness in your day. Play this game if you want some sense that living beings of many different shapes and sizes and colors can work towards overcoming destruction.

Thank you for brining this game to us! I thouroughly enjoyed it and it made me smile.
