The team behind Machinarium, the award winning indie puzzler, are back with a new adventure called Botanicula. It's a point and click adventure which combines gentle puzzles with exploration and a raft of cute characters and inventive gameplay. In Botanicula you follow five tree creatures as they attempt to save their tree from an infestation of evil parasites.
Botanicula isn't a normal point and click adventure. While there is a story, the point of the game seems to be exploration and interaction. It's a surprisingly big game, with lots to explore and quite a complex map. The tree is divided into screens, and on each screen you can interact with the flora and fauna in different ways, sometimes for fun and sometimes to solve puzzles.
There are no long conversations to follow, just really pretty animations accompanied by a gorgeous soundtrack. Botanicula manages to stay away from being simply an attractive ambient experiment with the consistently inventive animals, and the evil parasites, which reminded us a little of the much scarier Limbo.
Botanicula has a casual feel to it, but you'll enjoy it even if you consider yourself a 'hardcore gamer'. One of the most enjoyable and relaxing games you'll play this year, Botanicula is the kind of experience which really is suitable for all the family, without boring any of them!
