Beautiful art and gameplay, too short
Tue Oct 24 2023 AddTea2this game is phenomenal and a lovely experience through and through, but the gameplay (even after buying the full version) is way too short. I wouldn’t normally complain about this since these are mobile games and aren’t made to be too long but I barely got an hour’s worth of gameplay from all 15 chapters.
I also feel like the ending was very rushed; there was a lot of story left to explore and only having two linear story lines that barely make sense feels like wasted potential. Again, wouldn’t be complaining since this is a mobile game but even then it’s still subpar.
At it’s current state, this game definitely should be free. Please make more chapters with different characters from Bellariva and not just the same 4 people over and over again.
Good Game but DONT PAY
Tue May 28 2024 vampgigiIs the game great? Yes it’s amazing. However, after four levels they make you pay $6 to finish the game. There is 9 more levels after that.. each which can be solved in a minute. You are paying $6, for 9 minutes of game play. I literally finished the game in ten minutes. It’s also repetitive, you are fixing things for THE SAME two families (Carmen and her sister, Izzy and her Dad). For $6 I have played games with more depth and that took me an hour to complete. This game seemed like a demo, so having people pay $6 for an incomplete game is kinda scammy from the developers. They need to finish this game because it’s great, but right now it’s giving demo.
totally recommend!
Tue Nov 14 2023 wheredsarahgothis is such a cute little game. i’d originally seen it on steam and planned to get it in a few days. i don’t really know what drew me to the app store to see what was new, but BOY was i shocked to see this treasure sitting in the game section for free. i wasn’t disappointed in the slightest. it was such a delight playing the trial levels of this game. i really enjoyed the graphics, music, art, UI, voiceovers, storyline, and of course the lack of ads. this solidified my desire to own this game on steam. it won’t be long now!
i was also pleasantly surprised to see it’s the same company that made monument valley! the game has a special place in my heart. i recommend both of these games. :)
Amazing.
Tue Feb 06 2024 astrasolarisGosh, I couldn’t ask for a better game! The visuals, the audio, the storyline, the gameplay…so clean. This game was a breath of fresh air and it even brought tears to my eyes several times. I love a good puzzle and the way that each one was tied into the timeline of events was so perfect. The game allows you to use your creativity and logic skills and it’s the right amount of challenging. There’s no pressure to complete the activities within a specific amount of time so you don’t feel rushed. There wasn’t a single dull moment in this app. If I say do so myself, I think it deserves a sequel! Well done, ustwo, well done!
Absolutely Wonderful!
Tue May 28 2024 "RAWREEE!"One of the best games I’ve ever played, it’s obvious how much thought and care and dedication was put into such a beautiful story game! I spent a couple weeks carefully drawing out the storyline as to not waste the time! This game made me relaxed and at piece which was so refreshing in a digital world where content moves so fast! I’d love to thank everyone involved in making this game 💕✨
❌GLITCH: (for developers): there was a small glitch after you pour the espresso and it transitions to the milk where the pieces moving got caught and the outline (for placement) of the coffee cup stayed on the screen continuously
Best game on the App Store
Sat Oct 07 2023 yaaaasssssssssssss uwu owoI never write reviews, but this is the best game I’ve played on the App Store! This was my second time playing it, and it is such a beautiful story. The characters are very likeable, and the soundtrack just complements the beautiful art direction of the game. I loved the story, and the ending was so bittersweet, it was a clean and nice closing to such a beautiful story, but I wanted more!! Once again the best game on the App Store, I loved every second of it. It’s also great to see things like record players, cassette decks, and handheld portables being in a game like this.
Great game, I would give a million stars if I could!
Underwhelming
Thu Dec 28 2023 PhotogMom5I was looking for a game to play in those boring, empty moments of my day when I am usually (but probably shouldn’t be) scrolling social media. I appreciated that this was a try-before-you-buy game and was eager to play the demo. The game is easy enough to play, maybe a little too easy, but you have to click through pages and pages of storyline to get to one quick and easy repair. There are four chapters with one “repair” each and only one of the repairs was even slightly challenging. I did not buy the full version of the game. It is a cute idea, with a lot of potential, but ultimately kind of a disappointment.
Cozy & Wholesome
Fri Jan 19 2024 Dances with RunebearsThis was a short and wholesome experience to play! I enjoy story games and I think it’s nice to have simple hands on repair work along with it all. I am crossing my fingers and hoping they will add some more levels, but for now as it is, I enjoyed it <3.
I feel that this game does not deserve the slightly lower rating it has been getting. A good number of the people rating somehow expect everything to be free. Exposure doesn’t pay the bills and a measly $3.99 is really nothing for the cozy little story you get. Not to mention the quality is nice!
Fantastic Game
Thu Apr 18 2024 ClassicAssassinThis game was beautiful and 100% deserves every bit of five stars! The graphics are lovely and tasteful, the story was captivating, the sound is very pleasing and relaxing, and it all fits together so well. Absolutely the best game i’ve played on IOS in a LONG time. My only wish is that more stories or levels could be added in the future because as good of a time I had playing this game, I finished throughout the course of the day. Stunning work and well done to the fabulous people who created this masterpiece. Bravo!
Cute relaxing game
Thu Apr 04 2024 JupiterElfI love this game. It has a cute story and the game play of fixing things is satisfying. You can play the first few levels for free but I didn’t want to stop so I purchased the game. It has voice acting and the art is nice. Of course the main part of the game is fixing things. It has great sounds and puzzling out how things go together is fun and satisfying. I never got frustrated and it was a bit relaxing. You should get the game! You can try for free and if this game is for you you will know.
