Excellent, but short game
Really enjoyed this game. Found this after playing the Isoland series. I disagree with the reviewer that said puzzles weren’t intuitive. I do agree that a “hint” feature would be helpful, but I only found myself stuck on the time rocket puzzle. I was able to retrace my steps and locate the clue. I love the storytelling, mood, art style, and music on this game. Thank you!
Offloaded then reloaded
After 3 days of frustration with the time rocket puzzle I gave up and offloaded the game. But I really liked the story and artwork so I reloaded the game, tried again and found the right clue (think path, not pattern). After you finish the game, click back to the beginning then click through the game to enjoy the story without any distraction from the puzzles.
An excellent but short enjoyable game.
Enjoyed this. A pleasant story. Very thought provoking puzzles. No hints, but clues do abound if you search around. I had to backtrack a few times to find the clues I missed. Keep poking this and that, sliding this way or that, something will give and you will eventually land at the games end! Would have preferred this game to last longer but I am not disappointed, it was a fun, graphically pleasing adventure with a pleasant sound track.
This would be great I’m sure

There is one part where you have to scoot a string around pegs to make a shape of a man. You do this by sliding your finger across the iPhone “Nudging it”. The only problem is that the way they have a situated, it’s right where one would use that same gesture to close the app. So it’s not that it’s difficult to do the movement of the stri

Challenging but stuck at the snow globe :(
I love this game.
The puzzles are really clever, different and interesting. I’ve always liked their stories and artwork, this game is no exception.
I’m on an 8th generation iPad, iOS 14.4.2 and had no issues with controls or glitches. The controls seemed totally intuitive to me. I guess I started with the updated version, though. I would absolutely recommend.
It is an exceptionally short game. It’d be really nice if they added to it. Even priced at a dollar, it’s a little short.
Beautiful and lovely
Beautiful story with interesting art and a heartwarming story. The puzzle are challenging but not too complex. A great example of simplicity done right.
Need a hint
I like the illustrations and style of puzzles but I am stuck at the crystal ball. Help.

I’m stuck at the starry stamp. Please help.
Quiet, sweet, lovely
Cottongame story puzzle games are the absolute best. They are works of art you can get inside.
