Great God Grove

TL:DR; A short, fun, creative, occasionally experimental light puzzle game. If you like Toby Foxes work in Undertale/Deltarune, or Double Fines general vibes in their games (especially Pyschonauts 1/2) there's a very good chance you'll like this. Its a light puzzle game with a fun core mechanic- you can pluck words from peoples dialog and fire them at others. This will either cause the plot to move forward, or something funny to happen, so its always at least a little rewarding. If you're willing to slow down and experiment with the dialog-gun you can get quite a lot of fun out of it, but if you're looking for deeper mechanics I'm sad to say that's all there is. I'd say a good chunk of the comedy works, but there are a handful of jokes that will age out in a few years or you won't get at all unless you're well-versed with certain websites. I'm loathe to say this- but I don't recommend the game at full price. I can tell it was made with a lot of heart and passion but at almost £20 I can recommend a dozen games off the top of my head with much more content or replayability. If you're on a tight budget but like the look of it, maybe wait for a sale as I did. I eagerly await their next work!

LOVVVVEEEEEEEE

Awesome

This Truly Was... a Great God Grove.

Fun writing. Bad game. Controls too fiddly. Puzzles are trial and error.

I LOVED THIS GAME!!!! i had been wanting to buy it for a WHILE and i bought it just a day ago, it did not disappoint, i abasolutely loved every single one of the characters but specially Huzzle mug and Alexei, not only is the story good, but the message? LOVED ITTT, seems like the creators of this game are INFORMED!! best game ever totally recommended

This game is "egg-cell-entre" - as a member of the grove might say. ;) It was quirky, heartfelt, charming, and fun. The writing and art style was engaging and intriguing, and I found it the progression of game play to be just the right amount of challenging. This one stands out to me because of the creative ways in which it expresses themes about creating with others for the sake and love of it, not for fame or for money; for coming together with your community despite differences and finding forgiveness even when people make horrible mistakes. Oh, and this game doesn't give an eff about gender norms and highlights loving LGBTQ relationships, which was validating to see. I'm pretty much a sucker for games about delivering mail/helping people communicate too apparently (I've loved every one I've played), and if you are too, this is one you cannot miss!
