    Glittermitten Grove will surprise you every step of the way and is at its best when it shows the developers’ deep love for video games. [03/2017, p.58]

    If you aren't turned off by the sugary sweet aesthetic, Glittermitten Grove is worth a deep look. It can be difficult to start with its intricate economy and barebones explanation, but those who crack the nut can find something special hidden inside.

From the beginning to the end, it's a memorable experience - and a unique one, too. You'd be surprised how addicting the game can be, and with so much variety, it's hard to find a fraction of this game that's dull for too long. Who would've thought that taking care of a group of fairies could be this much fun?

    It might not seem like the game for you at first, but give it some time and dig deep into it, and you'll find something to love about Glittermitten Grove.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game's been out for 4 years now, it's time to stop beating around the bush: This is secretly Frog Fractions 2. By exploring high in the sky or deep underground, or by typing the word "butts" during play, you unlock the real hub world, an ASCII art adventure that leads to several other random minigames.

    Unfortunately, the whole thing lacks the rabbit hole appeal of the original Frog Fractions. Without the cheat code, it takes about 1-3 hours to reach the "real" game. The hub world is hard to understand and can lead to soft-locks, forcing you to start over. The whole thing is quite long and you can't save once you reach it. The quality of the games is hit-or-miss at best. It lacks any kind of connectivity between the games, unlike Frog Fractions, where each new game you discovered made some amount of sense coming from the previous game. Overall the game feels less like a journey of discovery and more like a chore.
