How it feels

A gentle, storybook-like point-and-click adventure where curiosity and a warm heart carry you through a whimsical but mildly perilous forest world.

What players say

Players describe Uproot as a short and cute point-and-click adventure with a sweet story and colorful artwork. The puzzles are mostly logical but can be tricky, and an in-game hint system helps. Opinions split on the voice acting, which some find off-putting or AI-sounding, while others find it charming despite the budget feel.
