    What’s so special here is there’s no deep dark secret. There’s no awful reveal. This is a positive game! It’s about nice people having a good time! Goodness me, it’s extraordinary that this is such a rare thing as to feel notable, but yes! It’s not dishonestly upbeat, but it offers a reflection of a really normal part of life that most media so peculiarly ignores: when things go well. Lovely moments sometimes get to gently peter out, rather than end in Sudden Calamity.

    What a rare delight this is: while other games concern themselves with the big moments this funny, sincere tale reminds us that it's the gaps in between where life really happens. [Issue#354, p.123]

It is about four people camping and that's about it but when I finished the game, I was filled with so much emotion. It reminded me of childhood memories I had forgotten and touched me immensely. I don't know how to describe this game but if you want a sweet story and pretty visuals, this is it.… Expand

    This game is kind of an interactive story, where you move around and interact with characters and things. But do not let that mislead you. ItThis game is kind of an interactive story, where you move around and interact with characters and things. But do not let that mislead you. It is touching, warm, positive... with fun, fresh dialogues, and it has a very characteristic style that I found quite charming. It left a mix of nostalgia and good vibes in me.… Expand
