What players say
Players praise the handcrafted stop-motion art style and atmospheric storytelling, saying it feels like a living children's book. The puzzles are fun but challenging, and the game is widely enjoyed by families. Some find the controls tricky due to camera angles, and a few note the lack of voice acting or wish co-op were added.
