Drop: Save the Forest

This puzzle game has a cute wholesome vibe. Given the family friendliness and the simple and straightforward way of stepping up the logic, I think this game could really shine in an educational setting. Also has built-in controller support, which is amazing for such a small and simple game. One thing I would improve about using a gamepad, is that when you are in the menus, instead of moving the arrow to scroll lists and go back to previous screens, there should be buttons doing that directly (usually B to go back and maybe L1+R1 to browse pages and lists, or something like that)

It's a puzzle game, very cute and funny. There are also skills and different attacks than can be upgraded. I discovered this game during the MilanGamesWeek and it was a nice suprise.

Se amate i puzze game e non cercate un'esperienza estrema fa per voi. In Drop dovremo salvare la foresta dagli incendi. Le fiamme possono essere passive o nemici attivi con caratteristiche e funzioni proprie, vi sono anche delle bossfight. Il fatto che siano fiamme le rende anche capaci di alimentarsi, e questa dinamica è molto interessante, forza il giocatore a compiere prima delle azioni meditate e non andare a casaccio. Per spegnere gli incendi Drop utilizzerà un piccolo set di abilità potenziabile in uno skill tree. Anche l'interazione con l'ambiente sarà fondamentale per completare i livelli, tante dinamiche e meccaniche che verranno sempre aggiunte fino alla fine, renderanno il gioco sempre fresco e nuovo. Lo stile artistico è in pixel art, il setting è ispirato alle Dolomiti. Una grafica pseudo pixel art che da molto più movimento e fa sembrare la foresta molto più viva Consiglio il gioco

è stata una bella sorpresa! Il gioco mescola puzzle e azione in modo semplice ma coinvolgente. La grafica in pixel art è simpatica e funziona bene con lo stile del gioco. Adatto a bambini e adulti. Consigliato a chi cerca qualcosa di creativo e non banale. Aspetto nuovi livelli!

Drop it's a pixel art game, and honestly, it’s just so much fun. First off, it's perfect for everyone. It’s light and good for kids, but me and other adults found it super enjoyable too. Even though the art is cute, some levels are really challenging. I spent a good amount of time trying to figure out the hardest ones, so even if you're a skilled gamer, you'll be busy and a litte frustrate some times. The person who made it put a lot of diversity into the levels, which kept things interesting the whole way through. What I really loved is that it’s more than just a game; it has an educational side. I learned about different animals and plants from the Italian Alps, and it really makes you think about how important it is to protect nature and biodiversity. It definitely made me feel more connected to the "forest". I really, really recommend this game for everyone, no matter their age. You should try it!

I'm not usually into indie games but I met this solo-dev at Milan Games Week and he made me very curious about his debut title. After trying the game what can I say.. I'm absolutely impressed! Really one person did all of this? Graphics, sounds, story, gameplay, congratulations! I've not reach the end of the game yet and I've already been engaged for a few hours. New challenges and mechanisms keeps coming up, you don't risk getting bored, the dev really understands how to keep the player involved. I'm a bit of a developer my self so I also appreciate how smooth and optimized the game feels. And recently achievements were added so now I want to have them all! I have only one minor suggestion to the dev: the game feels a bit zoomed-in on a 27inch, I think it was targeted more to tablets/laptops so I understand, but maybe you can think about something ;-) In general absolutely recommended and congratulations again.

If you're looking for a light yet challenging puzzle game, Drop is perfect. Little new mechanics are introduced throughout the game, so there's always something new to master. The retro gaming/arcade style art direction is charming and nostalgic, especially the music. I think it takes 6-7 hours, and more if you're collecting trophies. I would also recommend this game for a younger audience without hesitation. A great find!
