    Em um mundo em constante mudança e cheio de problemas e complicações, CHUCHEL parece um abraço reconfortante com sua atmosfera infantil e inocente. Ele tem vários problemas patentes, porém, e não chega perto do nível de qualidade de jogos anteriores da Amanita Design.

    One of the best games of 2018. although it has good game play, but the puzzles are not hard and breathtaking and if you work on puzzles for some minutes , you can solve it. it is good for ones who like straight and easy games, but it does not worth 4.99 dollars . sound, art and musics are perfect . if you want to be entertained for 2 hours , it is a good choice for you . but if you want toOne of the best games of 2018. although it has good game play, but the puzzles are not hard and breathtaking and if you work on puzzles for some minutes , you can solve it. it is good for ones who like straight and easy games, but it does not worth 4.99 dollars . sound, art and musics are perfect . if you want to be entertained for 2 hours , it is a good choice for you . but if you want to play a game that lasts for 10 hours or more, you'd better not play this game.… Expand

    A great funny game, the puzzles are not so hard actually the game basically is for children but an adult can really enjoy the game. Great visual art and nice music. Combination of various puzzles and action which player never get tried of playing. However, its not as good as the previous game of this studio the Machinarium.

    I bought it because I was curious. I played it because I bought it. There was nothing which really attracted me to the game. You follow a rather boring story and thereby solve a couple of puzzles in different scenes. Some of them are mildly entertaining, some aren't.

    If you are looking for another Machinarium, Botanicula or Samorost you probably will be disappointed somehow. At least i was. Have not finished the game yet but its puzzles suits more 7 year olds than adults.

    A huge disappointment from Amanita design.
    Not funny, not smart, poor art and poor music.
    It's about time Amanita Design restore the magnificent level of work it reached with Machinarium.

    A game that really seems more like an interactive cartoon. It's a crazy, cute, and at times disgusting ride. Puzzles are simplistic for the most part which is good because it keeps the ride going. It's music and tone remind me a lot of Rayman Legends. The whole premise is that you are chasing around a cherry that keeps being taken away from you. Characters and environments you encounterA game that really seems more like an interactive cartoon.

The whole premise is that you are chasing around a cherry that keeps being taken away from you. Characters and environments you encounter are truly bizarre and the logic is very cartoonish but that doesn't get in the way of solving puzzles since really you could just click through every option and eventually realize the solution. It is only about two hours so beware of that.… Expand

    Might be an OK mobile game. Not hilarious, and the puzzles are less about solving and more about clicking all the options until it animates the solution.

    Just take it for what it is: a funny interactive cartoon where you click on stuff to see funny scenes and animations.

    Pros: - fantastic art. I really like this artist, all the games they've done, starting with Machinarium. All of the Amanita Design games deserve to be preserved for history - humor is actually great! I can understand that some people like dark and sad things but there    Just take it for what it is: a funny interactive cartoon where you click on stuff to see funny scenes and animations.

    Pros:
    - fantastic art. I really like this artist, all the games they've done, starting with Machinarium. All of the Amanita Design games deserve to be preserved for history
    - humor is actually great! I can understand that some people like dark and sad things but there are days when you'd enjoy playing something light-hearted. And this game doesn't take itself serously
    - thankfully, there are no weird illogical puzzles so typical for adventure games, so, unlike Machinarium, at least you can complete it and enjoy the humor without looking into a walkthrough or mindlessly hunting for pixels.

    So-so:
    - music. Yes, it's fitting for the humorous context but you wouldn't want to keep it as a soundtrack. Just compare that with Machinarium soundtrack which I've been listening to for years while working. But I'm not complaining and actually i don't know if a humor-centered game could have a soundtrack which you'd listen to for years after..

    Cons:
    - NONE!    … Expand

    One could say of this game that it is merely a collection of funny ideas that, when watched in the right order, make up a story. Maybe, but it's fun to play. And it get's funnier when played thoroughly. I guess I can say it's a great game, even if the hero is a dust bunny on legs.

    This game doesn't look brilliant. It has specific humor. It isn`t as worth as some people report, however, you may skip this game or buy with a huge discount. There are other decent games frome this game studio.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Very entertaining game. If you wonder what it feels like to be on drugs without actually taking any this is pretty good substitute. Audio is basically bunch of noises and screams. Mini games throughout the game are references to classic old games like flappy bird, whack a molle, tetris, pac-man and more and all of them are nicely implemented into chuchel style. Puzzles are simple enough. I enjoyed this game.… Expand

    Chuchel is a magical game that is difficult to classify. Actually, it's more like an animated grotesque. It has more humour than interactivity. [Issue#284]

    Chuchel is Amanita’s crown jewel. The game moved me, but it had nothing to do with its story. My emotions arose from the sense of experiencing something pure, true and delightful. [05/2018, p.62]

    A short, simple showcase of artistic talent. [Issue#200, p.79]
