On the Peril of Parrots

Nice game, chill vibes.

The game has 1 (maybe 1.5 if you're bad at puzzles) hour of content, 2 / 3 of which is spent replaying old levels with minimal variation. Graphics, story and soundtrack aren't noteworthy in any way. Restarting a level requires you to restart the game itself or spam space bar 13 times (not kidding). Achievement for chapter 3 is bugged and didn't unlock for me. tl;dr: Does nothing interesting, has 60-90m of "content"* for 10$ * (you play through the same 25 levels 3 times)

Fun little game. Lots of easy to learn but tough brain teasers with a great calming jazz tune to go with it all

I'm glad I got this as part of a humble bundle, because the back half of the game is a single puzzle that once solved means it's just dialogue (that repeats itself) to the end. This should've been maybe $2. And it could've used some more ideas to flesh it out. What's here is nice but...this ain't a $10 game.

On the Peril of Parrots is a puzzle game that can pleasantly surprise even those who first judge it by the screenshots: the visuals may be off-putting at first, but in reality, the game turns out to be engaging and fun. The player controls an AI named P.O.L.L.I, who is being experimented on and observed by scientists and an assistant. Between some puzzles, dialogues appear, adding a bit of story. The goal of the game is simple: turn all the white blocks on a level into one color and complete all puzzles while keeping a certain number of “cookies”. Cookies are used as a resource: they allow you to undo a move, reset a level, or even skip a level completely. No cookies = lose. As you progress, unique puzzle mechanics appear that slightly change the usual gameplay. The game has a good background soundtrack, and overall, it’s not a bad experience. Its low popularity is mostly due to the visual style shown in Steam screenshots, which doesn’t fully convey how fun the game actually is, so I think the developer should consider lowering the price to give it a better chance of being noticed.

I want to preface this review by saying that I DID enjoy this game! I think it was very clever, and the actual puzzles themselves are fun and range from very simple to quite difficult. However, I'm glad I picked this game as part of a Humble Bundle. I think I would have been a bit irritated to have paid full price given that once you figure out the conceit there's less than an hour of proper "game" before the endless arcade mode post-credits. Post-conceit the game is filled with repetitive dialogue and game play. I had really hoped that the devs would lean further into [spoiler]the AI gaming the programming rather than completing the task[/spoiler], but nothing really changed after the turning point. Again, it's a clever game that also includes a fun arcade mode at the end, but I would highly recommend waiting until it's on sale to purchase, given that its length doesn't quite justify the original $10 USD price tag.
