My Review of The Last Campfire
I had found this game from a friends screenshot because of its colorful graphics which caught my eyes, and I got it at a price of 1.49 USD which I'd say is a fair price tag because of the short duration of this game. The game did not disappoint! I thought it would be something simpler and much shorter but it really exceeded my expectations - this is pretty much a captivating story game with superb graphics! Progression is narrated and I loved the narration! The puzzles were alright. There's a mixture of easy, medium and hard puzzles. If you're struggling to solve a puzzle, then I'd suggest you to follow this guide, it helped me out when I was stuck a few times:
It's an interesting detail how we can't save forlorn who aren't willing or yet ready to be saved. I kind of liked this game design decision, because it accurately depicts that not everyone is ready or so open-minded about moving on so easily. We all experience despair differently and we may not all be on the same track, so I liked that detail.
I should have anticipated the twist towards the end coming, specifically about the Wanderer's identity but I didn't and I had found that so surprising! The ending to this story felt very satisfying for me to witness after all of those puzzles I solved.
Overall, great short puzzle game!
Overall Rating: 10/10

The Last Campfire is a charming puzzle adventure game that stands out for its beautifully crafted world and touching narrative. Playing as a lost ember, you explore mysterious environments, solve a variety of clever puzzles, and help fellow lost souls find their way. The game’s visuals are simple yet captivating, filled with vibrant colors and soft lighting that give it a cozy, almost storybook-like atmosphere.
While it’s not overly challenging, The Last Campfire is more about the journey than the difficulty. The puzzles strike a perfect balance, making it a relaxing experience rather than a frustrating one. The story, while melancholic at times, offers moments of warmth and reflection, making it a perfect game to unwind with after a long day. If you're looking for something cute, emotional, and peaceful, The Last Campfire is a delightful way to relax and get lost in its whimsical world.

Honestly a super cute story heavy puzzle game where my only regret was buying this on sale. I would have got this for full price and not felt bad about it at all. Absolutely beautiful game.

I've heard some people dislike the narration but I didn't have any problems with it. It's a very pretty game, I mostly played on my pc but the game looks very nice on the Steam Deck OLED.
There were only a few puzzles where I was a little slow finding the solutions, the puzzle were never frustrating though. If you want a cozy puzzle game that doesn't drag itself out needlessly you can't go wrong with this game.

The Last Campfire is an absolutely beautiful and intriguing puzzle game where you play as a little lost ember character trying to find their way to the end. The visuals are stunning, the game feels extremely crisp, the narration is excellent, and the puzzles were perfect (difficult enough to be fun, but not difficult for the sake of difficult). There is also no real pressure and you can play at your own pace. You can finish the game in ~5 hours if you want, and by playing through the game you will very likely get 100% achievements as well.
This game is a gem, and I highly recommend The Last Campfire for anyone who enjoys puzzle games.
