Nice well written story. Cool to play a point and click game with full 3d camera controls. The puzzles are pretty bland though and the overall sound and atmosphere almost put me to sleep. Overall it's just too easy and bland to be worth recommending to fans of point and click adventure games.

THE GOOD
Interesting characters and a simple but somewhat engaging story
Nice graphics though they're simple too
Calming presentation
THE BAD
Didn't like to have to constantly move the camera around. I don't think this really adds anything to the point and click experience
Lackluster audio
Story wasn't as engaging as anything I could watch for free on Netflix
Puzzles are too easy

Very refreshing! A lovely game with no violence, netherworld creatures chasing you, or the protagonist trying to saving the world against dark magic while precious time is ticking away. This game is set in a serene, simple world all its own. I want to stress the word serene here because the music and pace of the game are very calm and slow. Part of me was thankful for the change of pace from most games being released but another part of me was going crazy not being about to skip through dialogue, walk faster, or jump to known locations. I kept going, though, because the animation, score, and story line are all outstanding and the puzzles were unique and inventive. I would recommend the game but only if you can handle a slower pace.

The casual and relaxed paced adventure game. Really enjoyed the storyline of the game, it kept the interest of finding Mo. The puzzles were good and even, worth playing with the kids.
Loved playing the game!

I don't usually write reviews, but this time I felt that I want to write something. I have searched a lot in order to find intriguing and different games. This game is amazing! It is completely an "out of the box" game absolutely suitable for all ages and not only for children.
I really love the concept. The graphics are gorgeous! The world of "minims" is unique, big enough and have potential for many more stories. I loved the characters, they are cute and I liked very much the 3rd chapter. It's my favorite!
The music contributes very well, I liked it! Nice melodies and soundtracks and I noticed a kind of a very discreet humour at some points!
The main aspect is that the whole game is a beautiful experience!

Very fun puzzle game, innovative controls/mechanic that makes you spin the level and world that you are in to find the right intractable items for the puzzle. Very nostalgic graphics, but those don't hold the game back on being fun!
Gameplay mixed with the cut scenes and the music playing do really fit the atmosphere it's creating!

Charming adventure game with a very nice style but the puzzles are too simple for adults and the controls are far more complicated than they need to be. I understand what they're going for here but sometimes you dont' need to reinvent the wheel. The wheel was fine as it was.

Probably a great game for kids, but as an adult who likes point-and-click games it was tedius. The controls were a pain to use, had to use both hands and you can't change them, the camera turns by itself when transitioning areas and you can't turn that off which is unpleasant for the motion sick prone and uses up a lot of time. Cute I guess but I wish I'd skipped this one.
