Ratings and reviews

A wonderful, serene game. The gameplay is great, as long as you don't expect some grand story arc. Four stars because I felt the zen mode was a little lackluster, I would have preferred more little people instead of bubbles. That and there's not much of a reward for collecting all the bubbles from the elders. Other than those things I loved the game. Just... have the right mindset. The goal isn't to complete anything. The goal is to make little people happy and think a little. <3

It's an art-game, with all the pros and cons that entails. Overall, it's very relaxing. I played it at night and quickly fell asleep. It's visually pleasing and the music is delightful. The soundtracks in Vogt's games always impress. You draw wind currents to guide birds into people on islands. The people release more birds representing regrets. The direction that you draw changes the music notes that play. At the end of each level, regrets submitted anonymously online are displayed.

I prefer faster paced games. but this is still a great relaxing experience.. I played just before bed and I found myself seeing the birds when I closed my eyes...who needs to count sheep! the quotes can help you reflect on your life/problems and I know I sure reflect while watching birds fly outside. great if you have regrets or depression issues. I wish there were more colourful birds, like if they accumulated as you caught them. . . or more people to cheer up/make the musical sounds.
