This is a beautiful game for an evening where you are in a mood for a slow story. That is, a story of a person learning and growing, and helping herself by helping others. I was drawn into this world and spent a couple of hours in here. Recommended.
Lately, I've been enjoying relatively short games, akin to short films or short stories. I've played several of RootBound's work, and among all their games, this one appears to hold the most promise for evolving into a slightly longer game or even a small saga. The music, graphics, and storyline are all thoroughly enjoyable. Highly recommended!
This is a really lovely little game! Despite the minimalist design in many aspects, it really drew my into the world and felt like a little slice of a richly detailed game world. The few animations that there were really added to the game, and the music was superbly chosen. Not many puzzles, but still a bit of work for the old grey cells wrapped up in a genuinely intriguing narrative experience.. Would love to see more adventures by our failed but somehow successful apprentice mage!
This page should be unquarantined swiftly. Rootbound is a valued member of the Adventure Game Studio society. If anyone is scared off from downloading, make a search for Adventure Game Studio and read about his games at the forums, and you'll see that this is a serious developer.
