    It’s a shame that Finding Teddy is too short to be something more than just an interesting curiosity. [02/2014, p.73]

Finding teddy is not a lengthy piece of work, but it is a good one. The story tells itself and the characters are well done. The mechanics might be a little bit off at times and one shouldn't expect a game to play weeks with, but it should entertain most for several hours.… Full Review »

Finding Teddy is a colorfully pixelated point and click game that places the player in control of a girl whose teddy bear has been stolen by a monster from out of her wardrobe. When she follows after the teddy bear, she is transported to a fantastical world filled with musically-inspired puzzles and several animal companions that can be used to solve riddles and unlock secrets.

    The majority of Finding Teddy's puzzles can either be solved by gathering and using the correct objects from within the level or by playing a specific melody on an alphabetical musical scale that the player slowly fills out throughout the game. The puzzles are thought-provoking without being aggravating. Often your goal is to find a particular item that will cause a creature that is blocking your path to move out of your way. As you progress further into the game, the little girl will be joined by two helpful sidekicks that will allow the player to reach otherwise inaccessible objects and areas.

    One of Finding Teddy's most charming features is its naivety; the game never presents you with a problem that must be solved via an act of mean-spirited trickery, but instead offers you sad creatures whose problems you must solve in order to continue. In Finding Teddy, you'll find missing baby spiders, sing "Hello!" to a group of frogs, and retrieve food for globular monsters with gigantic tongues. Finding Teddy is very much a game that embraces the perspective of the little girl that you play.

    Finding Teddy's high points can be found in its disarmingly childish storyline, its lush and detailed pixelized backgrounds and characters, and its attractively dialogue-free, music-centered gameplay. Perhaps the only downside to this casual point and click game is its short gameplay time and low replay value—most players will finish their first playthrough in under two hours and completionists with quick minds will find themselves completing all of Finding Teddy's achievements in that same time frame.

    Despite its short gameplay time, Finding Teddy is a brilliant example of quirky point and click games. This game presents you with sympathetic characters, unique puzzles, and a wonderfully vibrant atmosphere, giving it more than enough reason to earn a strong 8/10 as a casual, light-hearted point and click game to play between some of your more intense adventures as a gamer.    … Full Review »

It differentiates itself by having no dialogue and presenting the (lackluster) story through music. You'll go through the game learning new musical notes so you can pass each section and then when you get all the notes you go to the end and that's really it. There's not really anything fun about it, but I didn't find anything really bad about it either. If you're a fan of Adventure games then go ahead and give it a try if it's cheap. Everyone else shouldn't bother.… Full Review »
