May 12, 2026Adorable Adventures may not be an enormously deep game, but it has become an incredibly charming little adventure that will keep you busy for around four hours. After my time with the game, I think the low purchase price of twenty euros is perhaps a little on the high side, but there is clearly a great deal of love poured into its atmosphere and the way its story is told. And Boris has become one of the most endearing heroes in recent years. So cute that I won't be needing crispy bacon on my burgers for a while. And that really says something.

May 6, 2026The worst thing about Adorable Adventures is its title: yes, it does indeed offer an adorable adventure, but it's far more than that. This heart-warming journey sees a young boar reunite with his mother and siblings after a forest fire, and thanks to meaningful gameplay and gorgeous visuals, it's an utter joy to play.

May 4, 2026Adorable Adventures is indeed very adorable, but could have been a bit more adventurous with its mechanics. It has a very clever core mechanic, but it could have used a bit more variation to really stand out. Even so, it’s still a fun little adventure, especially for younger players.

Apr 30, 2026Though Adorable Adventures is extraordinarily simple for older gamers and seems to lack ambition, its impact arguably extends beyond its offering as a video game, at least to younger folk anyhow as it seeks to expand their knowledge of their relationship with the natural world that surrounds them and, of course, the sprightly boars that serve as Adorable Adventures protagonists. A great introduction to open world design for new games and the young folk alike, Adorable Adventures also makes a good case for itself as a relaxing refuge from the worries of the world, one where you can get lost in the beauty of nature, smell flowers and frolic about with your boar siblings. I'm not sure about you, but I absolutely need that sort of wholesome in my life right now.

Apr 29, 2026Adorable Adventures is a fine, cosy, laid-back experience. There's a good amount to do, from hunting scents to taking photos, and it entertains through the few hours that it lasts. It never really changes gear, though. Still, if you want a short and cosy experience, Adorable Adventures is worth considering.

Apr 29, 2026Boris is undeniably adorable, but with obtuse navigation and repetitive mechanics this is an adventure you may want to let pass you by.
