    Dont listen to those claims of its "experimentalism" and its fake "indie" awards. The only real experiment here is how many people will buy a virtually contentless game. And litterally, I meant it has NO content. The is nothing to do, no point at all no story, 2d graphics.... Sure its got a little art style but thats about it. Once this game is free, maybe It might just be worth a littleDont listen to those claims of its "experimentalism" and its fake "indie" awards.

    There are free flash games that blow this out of the water. Nonetheless, certain types of people do seem to enjoy it. However, you aren't one of them, so: do not buy.

    It felt empty. Honestly this isn't an experiment. This isn't really a game. It took me all of 45 minutes to beat. There is hardly even a level, more of an introduction to something that might have been a game. It could be a neat idea, but for $5, that's all you're getting, an idea.

    This game poorly done and not something anyone should ever waste any amount of money on. Not when there are hundreds of free flash games out there which offer better atmosphere, scenery, direction, and gameplay. It's art is sub-par to the point of being grade school quality.

There is no direction in the game and if the point of it is to explore a 'dream like world' then there should be something worth looking at. The only saving grace if it can be called that mellow piano music clear and done well even it does put you to sleep.… Expand

    This game may have won some awards, but I honestly can't say why. There is very little to do, very little to explore, and the ending wasn't even worth finishing the game for.

    With the indie scene’s biggest award under its belt, the simple Blueberry Garden may make you wonder “What’s the fuss?” But take it at its own pace, and it’ll give you a soothing surprise.

    This little platformer isn't engaging, charming, or clever enough to even be worth its low asking price.

    I found it to be a little too aimless, and it felt insubstantial once it was all over. Simply navigating the garden often feels like a chore thanks to the controls. Winning top prize at the Independent Game Festival is no small feat, but once you've visited this Garden you may wonder what the big deal is.
