    I played the game for about 3 hours, beat it twice. I paid $5 for it, just downloading it from Steam. I think I got more than my money's worth: the music and artistic style is very soothing. It reminds me of dreams. The game is kinda charming since you gather up a bunch of surprisingly random objects. The game has underwater portions, which are interesting, although the whole game I played the game for about 3 hours, beat it twice. I paid $5 for it, just downloading it from Steam.

I would like to see more levels in the future in exchange for more $$.… Expand

    A wonderful experience for a single afternoon! If you like games with little to no instructions and just the urge to explore, you should try this. Also very great from an artistic perspective, great mood! Minor cons are: Little reward when finishing (apart from the great feeling it gives you), a bit empty when flying high, a clock to track your resolution time and add replayability or A wonderful experience for a single afternoon!

    An excellent one-man indie project (though don't forget Daduk's music) - You won't find a game here in the sense we're usually led to expect these days, but a 2d playground involving a simple but smoothly simulated ecosystem of both plants and animals - and a subtle but cruel timelimit you'll have to discover for yourself.

If you think you'd enjoy a thought-provoking and beautiful toy to play with for a few hours, something quite unique that will reward investigation and creativity - you'll probably enjoy Blueberry Garden. There is no standard against which to criticise such an unusual game. It should suffice to say I found nothing to complain about, and found only pleasant surprises - no broken promises. A ten, for being different and never making me want to break my keyboard - for being pure pleasure, inciting and rewarding curiosity over and again. - Jack… Expand

    it was short but I tell you it was worth it. there was so much creativity and I really enjoyed playing through it. I think most of the guys that don't like it are video game experts that can figure out the puzzles too quickly. I am an average guy that plays perhaps 8-10 hours a week total and it was a bit challenging to finally complete.

    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.
