Cellular Harvest Reviews

Do you like weird games? If yes, then Cellular Harvest will be perfect for you. This is an engaging experience that uses its short length to full effect. I know some people are frustrated at games being short, but I think in this case definitely it worked to make the game a better artistic experience. I'm very much sold on the developer's future games.

The anti-capitalist tone is very enjoyable, the creatures are unique looking and with both tied together with a lovely lo-fi feel and a charming soundtrack made the whole thing an enjoyable mellow experience. What problems I did have were not deal breakers. On my second run the music did become a little repetitive and I was unclear what the two modes that precipitated the second run actually changed. However overall, this is a lovely little gem of a game and I think you should give it a try.

A delightful collection walking sim with a message that gets more sinister as you make progress. I did fall through the map once during the last leg of the journey and had to restart. But the game is short enough that I didn't mind. It is a short game (took me less than an hour to play through completely), but it was satisfying and the achievements are easy to get.

This is a chill short game about taking pictures of aliens for a faceless corporation. Overall I enjoyed the 45 minutes it took to beat the game. The environment and alien creatures were neat. Was also pleasantly surprised by the ending. Definitely recommend if you like weird short games.

A very short but neat game -- like Pokemon Snap in the Cruelty Squad universe. It's serene and chill, but also bleak and alienating. Also good for achievement completionists.

Really interesting and fun experience. It had everything I want from an innovative indie game: interesting mechanics, a chill atmosphere and easy achievements.

Interesting low poly exploration game, you just walk around taking photos of alien creatures, I would play something like this all day if I could. Sadly, the game is 30 minutes long, I missed a few achievements so maybe you could squeeze another 20 minutes from the experience. If the world had 2 more locations with a different scenery and creature population, I would have no problem giving it a positive review. The ending was kinda cool though, but don't look at achievements because there is a spoiler. Considering that aesthetic is made out of PS1 themed graphics, I don't understand why it has so little content, of all 3D genres you have the liberty of making content that does not need to look good to be enjoyable. There are a lot of LSD:Dream Emulator fans that will support a game like this and the word spreads quickly, but you have to deliver what people expect in the genre - more exploration than 30 minutes. [h1] Pros: [/h1] + low poly graphics, relaxing exploration + I enjoyed the ending [h1] Feedback: [/h1] [u] Content & Exploration[/u] - I think people specifically look for more exploration in this low poly genre, that Is why I buy so many games like Fatum Betula, Broken Reality, Sanguine Sanctum and so on. It's a fun experience, I would love to just explore around the planet and take photos of ugly mutants, but you have to add more exploration, more secrets, and more locations. [u] Taking photos of the same species [/u] - This again goes back to the content problem, instead of taking a photo of each individual creature, you have to take 4 photos per species so it's easy to forget which one you already took. Needed more locations, more unique creatures so it's not just reusing the same content. [b] Overall Thoughts: 5/10 [/b] I love the genre, I like the idea and I enjoy that kind of aesthetic, the game just needs more places to explore, otherwise, I might as well flush that $7 down the toilet, I am not trying to hurt the devs, I am just telling you how I feel when I finish a 30 minute game with low poly graphics. If you make an enjoyable exploration game with no content, I don't think you understand your audience that has been following this genre since LSD:Dream Emulator.

A great experience. It is a very short game, but I fell in love with the aesthetics of this alien world. It has a pretty deep message too.

Cellular Harvest is a short but sweet experience. It's hard to describe much about it that you can't see in the store page description without spoilers. It's a dark, creepy take on the small Pokemon Snap genre! Things to Know: * It's pretty short, 30 minutes. Nothing wrong with a short game, but $7 feels a little steep for something this length with no replay value. (Maybe $3-$5) * The only difference between Green and Purple is one is day and one is night respectively. It's just a lighting and color swap, nothing else changes. * If you beat one version, you need to restart the game before starting the second or it will bug out. * Once you leave the first little zone, you can't get back up to it. Make sure you get everything before moving on. If you want to try before you buy, I did a complete playthrough of both versions here: https://youtu.be/_6EFWw0ZrlQ
