It's okay at a discount. The art and graphics are appealing, and although the story is barely an excuse to get you exploring a town, the game's well designed enough for 4 hours of mindless clicking and solving simple puzzles.
I quite disliked the main character's voice acting though, it's pretty bad and wooden, like what find in dialog examples for language lessons. Strangely other character's voices are perfectly fine.
If you have to buy at full price though, I'd recommend this dev's newer game, Whirlight. It's a much better made game.

Decent game, though a bit short at 5 and a half hours. The puzzles were logical so you should be able to complete it without a walk through. Suitable for all ages.

Worth it. Overall the positives outweigh the negatives. Puzzles are logical. They're a little easy but they work as an all ages game. You can easily zone out and enjoy the experience and it's well written to allow you to play with kids if you have some. If this is your genre this is a great game worth it on sale. If I had to pay full price I'd expect much better music, a slightly longer experience, and better puzzles near the end. It looks like the team lost some steam near the end and rushed what should have been a better playing and written ending. But I'm glad I bought this. It was fun! I want to see more from this team...

The positives outweigh the negatives. Puzzles are a little bit easy but they still hold up with the age of the game. It's just a nice chilled game you can relax to and zone out as you play it. The game is not that long as I did it in just over 3 hours so not that bad for the game. I do wish the story was longer as I loved the setting and story as it felt it ended a bit too fast, hopefully they make more Willy Morgan games and if they do they are longer and puzzles are a little bit harder.

I loved the look of this one, has an almost stop-motion/diorama feel, with charmingly warped art design. Thin story with an unfortunately terrible English script and clunky voice overs that really sucks some of the humor and charm right out. Decent enough puzzles, except for the final area where the abrupt ending makes it feel like the game makers ran out of time and money and just needed to wrap it up.

It's a wonderful POC game with great visuals and music. Just a bit short. Highly recommended for POC fans.
