Jan. 2025

This game is enjoyable for so many different types of gaming styles, I especially appreciate that i'm able to progress through the story without getting held back by boss battles because of the different game modes. This is probably my favourite game of the year, cute art, amazing designs, interesting puzzles, and a fun storyline. I HIGHLY recommend this game!!!

Jan. 2025

This game was the first I played this year and I couldn't have imagined a better way to start 2025. “Ogu and the secret forest” encompasses everything I love and is therefore a perfect game for me: Exploring themed areas, setting up a base, catching animals, collecting gems, a great mix of main and side quests, solving puzzles, cooking, mini-games, exciting battles and a great story implemented in an absolutely cute style ... a sweet game that doesn't give you any idea at the beginning what challenges it will present you with. For me it's a mix of “Super Mario Bros.”, “Zelda” and “Animal Crossing”, which in terms of difficulty can definitely remind you of “Hollow Knight”! The enemies are very interesting and varied, and as already written above, there are definitely “soulslike vibes” when fighting, as an encounter can be challenging and difficult, but is never unfair. The bosses follow a certain pattern, and once you understand that, it's fun to take on the challenge and it's always a great feeling when you win. The characters are super cute, and it was nice to explore the different areas and come across new animals that will greet you with gratitude if you help them. Although the style is childlike, all of the scenes impressed me visually. The colors are beautifully coordinated and create wonderful places whose atmosphere is accompanied by beautiful soundtracks. I really enjoyed completing the game 100% because there are many secrets to discover, the tasks are varied and there is always a realistic chance of finding what you are looking for. For example, you never have to despair when looking for rare fish, insects or gems, as there is the possibility of altars that appear randomly and can help you complete your collection. So it's great fun to fill the gaps in the book with entries, complete the art studio and equip the museum, to name just a few goals to be achieved. The puzzles can also be difficult, but there are always clues to help you. ... a great balance of relaxation and challenge, free exploration and prescribed goals, simplicity and complexity is created here. I love this game and can wholeheartedly recommend it – a 12/10 for me!

i absolutely love this game, so worth the buy. this game has such a amazing and funny art style and the character is so lovable. the plot of this game is so random but it comes together so well and it just is so funny how some interactions are. i love the games hats mechanic and its walking animation and the fact that a bug net can kill a deity.

Started this game wondering what it would be like and lost 25 hours of my life to it getting near-100% completion. This game is INCREDIBLE, and if you like collectathons? You'll be hooked. Cannot recommend this enough.

Nov. 2024

This is a conditional recommendation. You will need the following to enjoy this game as intended: Typical color vision (although some of the puzzles have alternative glyphs) The ability to mash buttons The ability to react to QTEs within a quarter second Audio and the ability to both hear and differentiate tones There are no accessibility options for any of those. Combat, on the other hand, has baby mode, which prevents you from dying. You'd have to be able to play similar games rather well to play without it. Let me explain the gravity of these issues; while you can brute force the audio puzzles, there are quests that require high level food to pass. If you fail the Dance Dance Revolution minigame, you lose your ingredients. High level fish are a rare reward from QTE fishing which has a quarter second window, placed randomly within the fish's jump (I was going to mod it out, so I checked the exact code). If you spend a few hours getting a specific hat, it always has the same timing, but even then you're looking at 5-15 minutes of grinding QTEs to get another high level fish to have a *chance* at making the dish again. Many of the minigames with fail-states are passable on baby mode, but this game assumes a rather high level of both skill and physical ability. It's actually incredibly annoying and will likely prevent me from getting 100% completion simply because of the grind leading up to a very tight QTE. Other times contrast between colors is very low, and it's impossible to see, much less react to, the color keys in combat when they occur, and it took me forever to figure out the lands are color-keyed, and I still can't differentiate them on maps or scrolls. With that out of the way, the graphics, the audio, the animation, and the general feel are all amazing. It's a solid and fun game if you're able to either look past the accessibility issues or are fit enough to play it. It's been quite an enjoyable experience, if frustrating at times and with excessive grind and pacing issues. I can't speak to the quality of the combat, it doesn't feel very good, but I'm on baby mode and have given up on trying to learn how combat works. It's much more of a frantic pace, like Binding of Isaac, as opposed to something more deliberate, like Dark Souls. I'm sure some people will love it, but since you can turn baby mode on and off in the middle of a session, it's not an issue to me. So if you're looking for a nice, fun little game and all the above issues either don't apply to you or you'll deal with it, then I highly recommend this game. If you're frustrated by being unable to physically play half of the game, then I wouldn't recommend trying it. It is aggressively adorable, though. A true child-like adventure of fantasy, except your dad keeps reading the Lord of the Rings at bedtime or something.
