Not Quite For Me
Botanical3
3 stars for being so beautiful, but for me this was a 'Jack of All Trades, Master of None'. A little of this and a little of that done 'okay' on a stunning background. The physics were excellent at times and not so at others. Sometimes you explore, but once I finally figured out what to do, it was so simple there was no reason to explore any more - which was the fun aspect of it. Then later you're led around by the nose, and passing through any challenging areas feels more like luck than skill. I understand the underlying theme and concept from the film, but as to translating that to a game I feel it failed. The events and any goals set forth seemed to be erratic and random in their placement and execution, leaving the concept undefined, and causing it to feel unsatisfying at the end of each level. I found it to be simplistic in the way that each moment was more of an individual disconnected action. This was not a game that flows and builds upon itself, with continuity and well-placed momentum and goals. I was hoping for something relaxing and thought-provoking, but found myself feeling simply frustrated and unsatisfied.
Interesting and cute

Imagine yourself waking up, and realizing you are not only in an alien environment, but in an alien body. You have no idea how to survive, how to move, or even how you got there. So now what? Roll around, eat the good plants, and multiply. That's the gist of the game. It's pretty good, just not great.
Could Be Longer

This game has one of the most interesting and unique storylines of any app and the gameplay is definitely different. This was exactly the kind of app I was looking for amongst the sea of overused plots and superficial gameplay mechanics. The only thing I would add would be more content. I played through it quite quickly and there was so much more that could have been done with the plot. However, though it may not be as long as I liked, it's still one of the best apps out there. Definitely recommend trying it out.
Amazing!

This game is wonderful and ive been looking forward to it since I saw its trailer on vimeo. Easy and intuitive controls make it hard to put down. My nephews love the amount of control they have over the globosomes. Great job devs!
