Botanicula level 71/25/2024 Point and click adventures don’t get the attention they deserve these days, with game development studios putting focus on action and adventure, so its amazing to see so much love going into what has been often declared in the past, a dead genre, so much so that I doubt it was ever a dead genre, more just a forgotten one. Wandering from branch to branch presents you with various puzzles and challenges for you to help them through, totalling in at over 150 different detailed locations / scenes to explore and enjoy, such is the chilled out style of this game that you can’t help but get lost in this very magical and occasionally dark world that exists on their tree, exploring the world of the tiny insects and bugs that resides in and around it, discovering enemies, allies and creatures in need of your help along the way. This week I have been lost in the world of Botanicula, a bright and colourful Indie title from the talented developers at the Amanita Design game studio, who already have a place in my heart for crating their previous masterpiece Machanarium, another similar style title, which also featured the same creative point’n’click gameplay mixed with hand drawn computer animated graphics. Botanicula brings you into the world of not one but five main characters, Feather, Lantern, Poppyhead, Mushroom and Twig, each with their own unique personalities and skills, who are on a journey to save a tree from the life sucking evil spider-like creatures that have started to over run the tree.
