The Little Acre

Nice little adventure point and click it's quite nice and little so expect to breeze through it but its fun while it lasts with nice art and sound and the voice work is definitely punching above its weight class (for an indy low budget game).

6/10 its reallly short
like an hour to finish short
didnt even get a single card drop before i completed the game
+ art
+ story
+ voice acting
- puzzles, hardly any. ohh heres a new room, i wonder what puzzle awaits me here. nope just gonna walk right on through!!!
- just so short...
would grab on sale

I haven't played such a nice little old school adventure game in a while. Its nothing on par with the Broken Sword series or as funnyas the Luas Arts Games but it has charm and is bite size enough to finish in a day.
Pros
+ Among the cutest and sexiest voice acting I have seen in the father and daughter pair, the accents is amazing lol.
+ Traditional hand drawn inspired background and graphics, the people animation are simpler 2D shaders but still nicely drawn and pleasing.
+ No crazy unsolvable puzzles, didn't have to use a hint or solution guide. Most are quite logical or limited in environmental interaction for you to figure it out.
+ While not the best storyline, its still entertaining enough though a lot has been left unsaid about the world and world building.
+ Cute side characters, here's to you dog, caterpillar and giant water monster.
+ Nostalgic return to old school adventure games for those missing it.
+ The black cat, cutest thing in the world (i own one so this tugs at my heartstrings seriously).
Cons
- The game puzzles and mechanics are simple and straightforward.
- It's a short game and by short its even poked fun at it with a speed run achievement of an hour.
- The villain, not the most inspiring and the voice acting, meeerrr, sadly no.

It's so short it's borderline disappointing yet it's so charming in its style, you can't help but just love it.
Or at least that's what happened to me.
I walked in this game looking for an old style, hand drawn, point and click adventure game. In that quest, I wasn't disappointed because THE LITTLE ACRE is all of that and more: good voice acting, lots of humour, a very good crescendo, and an interesting world building.
The problem is it's so insanely short, that you're gonna complete it without help of sorts in around the 1 hour mark! And that is an incredible shame cause the premise for a masterpiece is there.
So you have to walk in this game knowing it's short, and while the story comes to a conclusion, that same ending feels definitely rushed and you left hanging for more.
Except no that's it. 1 hour, and it's gone.
A must buy on a sale, cause it oozes style, charm, great drawings and a nice world.
Full price? No thanks.

I feel like the ending for the game was a little rushed, but the art style was very charming and overall it was a fun time. Would recommend!

Surprised by how nice the story was. A really friendly, casual, and fun short game this was. Easy 100% for achievements too. Only needed 2 playthroughs. I see myself playing this again with my children once I have them in the future.

A fun and short little game mostly for children. The art and voice acting is beautiful. The puzzles are easy and the hotspots are clearly indicated so you don't have to pixel hunt. Note: Although the game says it has a native linux version, it didn't work for me, but it worked fine with proton.
