Mist Monkey: wanderer

Well folks, this is quite a niche game. I’ve never played anything quite like it. I thought it was a zelda-clone at first, but it’s not really so much of that. I find myself wanting to play it in place of idle games or chill games. It’s good to play after work when all other games just seem like more work. Sometimes my brain is tired and I don’t want to commit more hours of work to a virtual world. I think there is real cult classic potential here, but maybe it isn’t quite weird enough. I’m reminded of similar games, Attack of the Friday Monsters and Catherine Full Body. Not because of game play, but because the developers had a vision to do something different. This game is definitely different, and I think it is going to be divisive (if anyone bothers to play it). I think the mixed reviews will come from different gamer expectations and willingness to try something new. But it is fair to say that it is not for everyone.

I’m reminded of my mindful walking meditation practice as I go step by step through the fog that covers everything. Its not all that hard, but you can’t expect to just barrel through looking for a quest, because there are none. You’ve got to take your time and enjoy the peaceful music. Unfortunately, some games train us to be impatient, so I imagine some gamers are not going to get how to play this game. My advice is if this game feels like a grind to you, you’ve got the wrong approach. It’s more of a casual collectathon with chill music and a cute characte...

Really beautiful, relaxing, and fun. At first I had no idea what I was doing, but just walking around the world is enough to show you cool new things, and eventually I figured out how to progress. I had a great time and would highly recommend this if you want a relaxing wander through this world.

Cute and charming but a little confusing if you don't pay attention.

Thoroughly enjoyed this little game. Very chill athmosphere with fun and fairly clever/[spoiler]straightforward[/spoiler] puzzles.

Very long game...!
