I don't know why I failed to write a review for this game. Because I absolutely ADORED it! It's more than just an "object building puzzle" game. It also has a touching story to go with it. It's full price is quite fair, but it's a steal when on sale. Seriously, when I completed the game, I not only had all of the achievements, but I felt that I had achieved something special. It's been almost 2 years since I played it, but I still smile when I think about it. I give it an easy thumbs up and heartfelt recommendation.

It's official - Wylde Flowers is one of the very best story games that I've ever played! Every aspect of the game is top notch. It's so much more than a farming game. The story is deep, complex, emotional, and touches on all things human. The voice acting is nearly perfect; always evoking just the right emotions for the moment. I can't recommend it highly enough. I give it both thumbs up!

I'm recommending this game, especially to people that have played "To the Moon". However, unlike "To the Moon", this story didn't move me. "To the Moon" had me in tears. Very few games have that effect on me. Unfortunately I can't reveal why "Finding Paradise" didn't move me like that without revealing a BIG spoiler. Which I won't do. I also thought this was a bit over long for what it is. But it was still fun, with some really good humor, and some clever ideas. So yes, I recommend it.

I'm going to highly recommend this game to any and all adventure and puzzle game lovers. It's also a walking simulator, but so much more than that. Just the unique story alone is worth playing this game. Did I mention that I highly recommend Call of the Sea? Oh, okay then.

I found this game to be creative and fun. Sliding the clues to line up the correct letters for each solution was a unique game mechanic that I haven't encountered before. It kept my interest through all of the categories. However, in an effort to create clues that matched the right number of letters, some of those clues are really awkward. And some are downright confusing. I had to use hints on a number of them, because the solution was not obvious. For achievement hunters looking for a Perfect Game, this one is very straightforward. Complete every category and you'll end up with all of the achievements. Finally, this game is inexpensive; it's worth the price for what you get. I definitely recommend it to puzzle lovers. NOTE: You must be fluent in American English to understand some of these clues.

One last note - my time of 7 hours is inflated by about 2 hours of idling while I went and took care of other things.

I do NOT recommend this game to anyone, at any price. It is vague and confusing. It is more difficult than it needs to be, because it is vague and confusing. I eventually made it to Level 23, and that's as far as I got. I couldn't figure out what to do on that level, and you don't get explanations. I fumbled around for quite some time, then finally found a guide online. The guide gave instructions, and plainly said that Level 23 was virtually impossible without using Powerups. Good luck with that. Using the Powerups correctly is vague and confusing. I'm quitting the game at Level 23 and uninstalling. I like cats, but I don't like THIS cat. Tim can find someone else to decorate his room. I'm moving on to a game that makes more sense.

This is a Thumbs Down from me, no matter what the price.

I'll get right to it - I highly recommend this game! Whether it's at its regular price or on sale - highly recommended. For all my friends who love cats in their games - highly recommended. For my Steam friends with this in their Wishlists - you got it, highly recommended. For people that like fishing in their games - by now you know the drill.

This game is super cute and fun. It'll almost certainly put a smile on your face. Heck, it might even make you purr.

I won't say it again - just get it!

This is a super cute game, but looks can be deceiving. There's a mature, ominous story mixed in with the cuteness. And it's a worthwhile story to dig into. This is a branching game, so be prepared to play parts of it multiple times if you want to get a "good" ending. That gets grindy, but I stuck with it and was rewarded with a satisfying Epilogue. If you can spare the money, then Beacon Pines is worth its full price. If you wait for a sale, like I did, then it's DEFINITELY worth a purchase. I recommend it.

I just spent 44.1 hours on this Summertime one, and for the most part I think it was worth it. If you've played any of the other Jewel Match Solitaire games, nothing in this one will surprise you. It has the usual grinding, by repeating a level, to regain coins and wildcards. Let me make it easy for you - keep repeating Level 2. It is the best level for grinding, by far. You're welcome. Oh, and I almost forgot - although this game has 200 levels, you only have to complete 180 of them to get 100% achievements. Who can complain about that? But if you want to finish building the final mansion, then you'll need to complete those final 20 levels.

Right now, as of 11/28/23, this game won't count as a Perfect Game on your profile, nor will it add to your achievements. It needs more people to buy and play it. I want my Perfect Game, goldangit! LOL! So buy this one and watch as the beautiful butterflies, birds and flowers flit, fly, and spray across your screen.

Constantly having problems with it stuck on "Collecting System Info". It rarely actually gets to the Benchmarking processes.
