  11. So, I did not play the demo version because I already own this game :) This game (like most Amanita games) is beautiful and fantastic. Thank you for sharing one of my favorite games with everyone else, Bart!

  16. I thought the demo was really good, is it worth buying?

    ReplyDelete
  17. I have the full game, and getting that is worth the money. And the demo loaded fast enough for me.

  18. thanks for the 2 cents on the full game. I was really thinking about buying it, but debating. Now I'm going to! And

    @ Anonymous 17:03, yes same people that did Machinarium

  19. Speaking of, does anyone own the full version of Machinarium? Got an opinion you'd like to share?

  20. interetsting game-visually beautiful and interesting. also very creative. load time was not so bad for me....
    think i clicked on everything. full game seems like it would be interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  21. definitely worth the 10 bucks.

  22. @ LIZ:

    I own all of the full length Amanita games. Up until Botanicula, Machinarium was my favorite game that I own. They are both excellent games and (IMO) worth owning :)
    Also, for those that enjoyed this, check out the Amanita site here: http://amanita-design.net/games/botanicula.html#kotva they have desktop wallpaper from this game for free (scroll to the bottom of the page)!

  23. LIZ: Machinarium is awesome.

  24. i think its boring, but its so beautifull!

    ReplyDelete
  25. so slow to load, much too slow :(

    ReplyDelete
  26. Not as good as Machinarium (Ihaveit). Disappointment to me. I was hoping that I could purchase this, but no, I´m not. Too simple point and click without a good storyline...

    ReplyDelete
  27. So, it took forever to load, so I read through all of the comments. Twice. It was a very cute game and all, but I was really confused. What was going on?

    ReplyDelete
  28. So beautiful... I waited For it to load for ages, but it was so worth it. I also think I will get the full version, even though it is a bit boring and I have know idea what is going on, I love it. Highly recommend it for therapy... Just the loading page was relaxing.
