"So, what have you been playing lately?" "Botanicula." "Oh, I've never heard of that. What kind of game is it?" "It's a point-and-click where you... um... there's... trees... seeds... Uh, chickens... hallucinations... I think spider monsters... An...
Botanicula is already one of this summer's gems for the indie market. It's very short and very casual, but the level of quality is of a kind rarely seen in games. If you liked Machinarium, you'll love Botanicula. If you haven't played Machinarium, play...

von Stephan Petersen Der visuelle Stil der Spielwelt ist faszinierend, das gelungene Zusammenspiel von Grafik und Akustik schlichtweg genial. In Botanicula macht es Spaß, auf Entdeckungstour zu gehen und den Mikro-Kosmos zu erforschen. Immer wieder...
