Seclusa

Maybe the most obvious appeal for Seclusa is if you are into photography. Which I am! It's particularly interesting to me as I am not usually a sandbox game player. I like having objectives or a narrative to follow for when I play games. But in this case, where the focus is one of my real life hobbies, it works! (As well as card collecting haha!) The game itself is gorgeous to look at, even when you aren't taking pictures! So if you're looking for a way to relax or pratice your photography composition, I would highly recommend it! Also, I found the puzzle minigame really satisfying and relaxing to do!

The auto-save feature is disabled by default for some God-forsaken reason. Spent almost 2 hours messing around, customized lots of stuff, actually got to photograph a rare animal, and even unlocked the related achievement... Only to discover that all my progress went down the drain thanks to an amazing design flaw straight from... what, the 1990s? The auto-save feature has been the norm since mid-2000, and no - a minor, barely noticeable "Unsaved progress will be lost" prompt doesn't count because games ALWAYS say that, even with auto-save turned on. There isn't even a "Save & Quit" button. And now, I'm back at square one with 112 minutes on the clock, considering to just refund this game and be done with it. Cause that's exactly the kind of headache you want from your relaxing, laid-back title, right?

Beautiful, peaceful game about going on a photo safari for some of East Africa's most iconic fauna. There's a cat at the lodge you can pet and buy silly hats for, cards to collect, rare variants to search for, and puzzles to while away time while you're waiting for your bar to refill so you can take on another paying mission. You'll discover four of the famous "Big Five" (and the adorable Baby Five!) at locations around the wildlife reserve, one reptile (crocodile), a smattering of smaller animals such as the wild cat and pangolin, and a small cross-section of East Africa's rich bird population, including the Egyptian goose and the fish eagle. Once I got used to the controls for the camera drone, I had a lot of fun just zooming around experimenting with odd angles, lens effects, and filters. There is a gratifying selection of settings you can purchase and fiddle with for that ideal effect, including spotlighting (ideal for dramatic night shots against a sweeping sky full of stars), hue, tint, temperature, saturation (enabling dramatic black & white or sepia photos that look straight out of an old explorer's album), and even one that makes your photo look more like a painting. With luck, this lovely, chill game will get further updates and expansions. I'd love to see so much more of Africa's amazing wildlife (cheetahs! hyenas! ostriches! kudu! Cape buffalo! meerkats!) Absolutely worth the price if you're into photography, wildlife-watching, or seeing the kind of animals most of us only see in zoos roaming freely in their natural habitat.

So fun and relaxing! I love that it doesn't give a ton of direction and you're allowed to be as creative as you want with photos, and explore at your own pace. It's also nice to have a cozy lodge where you can sit by the fire and put together a puzzle!

This is a charming game. Can be as chill or as fast as you want. Do you want to get out and take photos? Go for it. Do you want to run around, optimize every move? Sure can. Game felt smooth, loaded nicely, and manages resources well.

Esse jogo é perfeito pra quem gosta de foto e entende das funções de uma câmera. Agora pra quem gosta disso e ainda mais de viajar , natureza e animais selvagens , é ainda mais perfeito. É bem calmo , tranquilo , legal ver os animais vivendo e tirando foto deles para missões. Só acho que demora um pouco pra aparecer as situações pra fazer as missões. Fora isso é lindo , gráfico e tudo.

自分で動く必要があまりなくて、気軽に写真撮影だけ楽しめる！the Hunterだと一個体追いかけるのにめちゃくちゃ時間かかるからちょっとしんどい、けど野生で暮らす動物の写真を撮りたいって気軽に始めたい人にはオススメ！！

Having been a bird and wildlife photographer for decades, I was delighted to find this game! It's a very enjoyable game with no time limits with gorgeous African animals in numerous locations to photograph. There are tasks and jobs that increase your money and allow you to get all the tools for managing all the settings on your drone camera and control the weather and time of day. It's relaxing and great fun. You spend your time traveling from one location to another to find the animal in just the right conditions photograph and sell for money. You can sit in a chair and relax to just watch the animals or rest back at the lodge. There's a cat that has fun and different aspects you can choose, a variety of jigsaw puzzles to complete while munching on some refreshments on the table, all of which add to money and XP. The lodge is beautiful with plants to water every day. There are dozens of achievements to acquire and you can delete any pics you don't like or need to delete when your gallery is full. There are cards to collect as well. All in all, great fun for dozens of hours. :)

What a beautiful game! I've played for 22 hours and have 100% achievements unlocked. I hope they add more content, I will definitely be back.
