Really enjoyed this game! Challenging, but not overly challenging where it's not fun anymore. Fun story, especially if you're familiar with the book by Jules Verne... adds a little bit to it. Wish there were more games like this!

A Nostalgic Adventure This game is a nostalgic trip back to my childhood.♥ ✯intro If you enjoy puzzle-solving to gather food or create equipment to escape an island, this is the game for you. The inventory system is exceptionally well-designed, once you play it you'll get what I mean. + the flexibility in crafting. ✯any negatives? Occasionally, there's an earthquake effect that can cause headaches or dizziness (at least for me), which can be a bit off-putting. Additionally, the introduction of robots towards the end feels out of place and disrupts the "island vibe". Personally, I would've preferred feral monkeys as enemies to keep with the natural, survivalist theme. ✯positives Despite these minor issues, the game has excellent voice acting and beautiful cutscenes that are perfectly paced and never overwhelming. Most important: you're able to become friends with a monkey!!!! ♥♥♥♥ ☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・° ✩8/10✩ ♥monkee♥
