    An interactive cartoon complete with cute characters and creative puzzles that is entertaining despite lacking depth and moderate difficulty.

    A short, sweet romp through a world of dreams, Lost in Play is a joyful celebration of imagination and play. Its gorgeously familiar cartoonish visuals and focus on endearingly absurd scenarios win over the frostiest of hearts. While some of its trickier puzzles may leave younger gamers stumped and even frustrate their parents, it’s impossible not to grin at the wacky antics Lost in Play loves to throw at you. Recommended as a little cosy treat for the young at heart.

    Game, overall, is really great. You'll definitely have fun playing it. And anyone can play it (my 6ys old daughter loved it also).

    "Lost in Play is one of my gaming highlights of 2022. It’s a beautiful, charming, and cleverly designed point and click puzzle adventure game"Lost in Play is one of my gaming highlights of 2022. It’s a beautiful, charming, and cleverly designed point and click puzzle adventure game with puzzles that rarely verge on the side of frustrating. This is going to be an experience I’ll remember for years to come, and I really hope it gets recognised as one of the best indie releases of the year. It deserves it.

    The only issue with Lost in Play is that the developers are going to have a hard time topping it with their next release!"
